Ashley Warshawsky, the Assistant General Manager of Allen Premium Outlets®, along with Michelle Bogard and Tonya Martin from Ticket to The City arranged a fabulous event for Dallas-Fort Worth Concierges.
They orchestrated a scavenger hunt for the Concierges to follow that got everyone walking the entire shopping center and learning about the shops that are there and ones soon to open. The concierge had to figure out answers to questions specific to each of the participating stores and many of them offered discounts for that night and discounts that could be shares with tenants and clients. The store managers were so friendly and generous. They were all aware of the scavenger hunt and made the evening a lot of fun.
We then reconvened at the food court for what I have to say was very delicious lasagna! We were offered a buffet of lasagna and salad from Italia Express, chicken bites from China Pantry(that Brent LOVED and wanted the leftovers) and cinnamon rolls from Cinnamonster. Everything was wonderful!
I know that former Mayor Ron Kirk shopped the Allen Outlet Mall when he lived in Dallas and I would recommend it to all my tenants and friends.
My favorites were CAbi (I love my new outfit and jackets I purchased at CAbi), Gap (best t-shirts ever and even better on sale), Ultra Diamonds, Nike, Converse, Columbia, Cole Hahn and okay well I liked them all and cannot wait to go back and use my coupon for Le Creuset…no wonder I was the last to finish the scavenger hunt. Next time, I will sign up for the online coupons first. (Their Talbots and Juicy Couture may even be open now).
