Southwest Airlines – 4th Quarter Sale

We all know airfare is getting more and more expensive and with all the additional fees we have to pay to check in our baggage, the price of traveling is almost double the amount we expect to pay. From now until October 29th, 2009, 11:59 p.m. Pacific Standard Time, Southwest Airlines is having a 72 hour sale with fares as low as $25 one way! Here's a breakdown of the fares:

$25 – Travel 0 to 374 miles
$50 – 375 to 549 miles
$75 – 550 to 999 miles
$100 – 1000+ miles

Fares do not include federal excise tax of $3.60 for each flight segment. A flight segment is defined as a takeoff and a landing. Fares do not include airport-assessed passenger facility charges (PFC) of up to $9.00 and government-imposed September 11th Security Fee of up to $5.00 one-way. Select Destinations.


For more info, here’s what Southwest Airlines posted on their website:

We’ve tossed out the playbook! You’ve heard of throwback jerseys, but what about throwback fares? That’s right, for 72 hours you can score some of our most incredible deals of the year for travel Dec. 2 - Dec. 16, 2009 and Jan. 5 - Feb. 10, 2010.

With fares this low, you should invent a reason to go. But remember, there’s no “OT” on this sale. So put on your game face and score a cheap trip before it’s too late!

Sample Sale at The North Face Outlet!


Winter season is coming up and for those of you who love to snowboard or ski, or just love The North Face brand, this is the perfect deal for you!

Starting tomorrow, The North Face Outlet in Berkeley, CA is having a sample sale. There will be men's and women's waterproof outerwear, hats and beanies, men's and women's sportswear shirts, men's and women's pants, men's and women's insulated outerwear and men's and women's fleece outwear. In addition to that, there will also be backpacks, shoes, gloves, scarves and camping accessories sold at the sample sale. Although the picture says the sample sale is for October 8th, the sale generally lasts throughout the weekend. Just make sure the sale is still going on, so call before you go!

The North Face Outlet is located at:
1238 Fifth Street
Berkeley, CA 94710
Phone 510-526-3530

From my past experiences at The North Face Outlet sample sale, it's best to get to the sale as early as possible, since all the good stuff will be snatched up by people who are looking to resell these items. There will be lots of people at this sale and it's best to dress lightly and not carry any big bags with you. There will also be boxes and clothes all over the place, including the floor, so be careful! I've tripped at these sales before. If you're patient, you'll love this sale. I've gotten many good deals and I suggest grabbing doubles of the same item because sometimes they're priced differently. I've gotten a jacket for $50, but there was another priced at $80 for the exact same thing. When you're at the sale, you'll be given a large, clear plastic bag, similar to a trash bag. Throw everything you plan on getting in there and decide later!

Here are some examples of deals I've gotten:

Vault Backpack: $10
Pandora Backpack: $10
Isabella Backpack: $10 (now $30)
Amira Backpack: $30
Jester Backpack: $30
Recon Backpack: $30
Nuptse Jacket: $80
Snowboard pants: $50
Scarves: $5
Beanies: $5
Kids' Jackets: $15 - $20

Please note that some prices have changed and these items are from past seasons. Most sample items are size M, but occasionally you'll find some other sizes. The sample sale is limited to stock on hand. Hurry for the best selection!

If you have any questions about my experience at the sale, just ask me!

Note: All items for this event are prior seasons’ salesman samples. Samples are limited in sizes, colors and quantities. Quantities are limited to stock on hand. Shop early for the best selection! Sorry, no phone or mail orders accepted. All sales final. Samples do not carry The North Face lifetime warranty. Sale starts Thursday, October 8, 2009 at Berkeley Outlet. 1238 Fifth Street, Berkeley, CA 94710. Phone 510-526-3530.

OUR OUTLETS CARRY DISCONTINUED ITEMS AND SECONDS. Seconds are items with minor flaws that do not affect performance. The North Face products in our Outlets do not carry The North Face lifetime warranty. Sorry, no phone or mail orders accepted. Quantities are limited to stock on hand. Shop early for best selection.
