Shop Sample Sales from Home

courtesy Gilt.com

Love the idea of sample sale shopping but you’re not getting the exclusive invites (or can’t handle the bloodsport of literally fighting for fashion)? Dream no more, because we have the hook-up with Gilt Groupe — and we’re sharing the secret! The members-only website is a newly launched destination for luxury labels at deep discounts. Their one-day sales stock celeb-fave designers like Dolce & Gabbana, Be and D, Marchesa, Rachel Roy and Hollywould among other big names and up-and-comers. While the exclusive site only accepts new members through referral, we have a VIP link just for StyleWatch readers. Click here to join Gilt Groupe for free.

The site asks us for the email address that referred us. What do we put?

It doesn’t work. When I try and sign up, it still keeps asking for the member that refered me.

I’ve emailed both People & the shopping website. I would love to use the site as sample sales aren’t offerred in DC.

Worked for me – I got a great deal on a Tibi blouse yesterday

I just got the invite! I’m in…:) Has anyone ever heard of the desingers that are having sales at the moment? Are there any other websites that do sample sales online?

Mary January 30th, 2008

Stacie, I don’t know of other websites that do sample sales *online*, but TopButton.com does notify you by mail if there is a public sample sale in your area. Luckily, I live in the SF Bay Area, so there have been a few.

Thanks Mary! Appreciate the tip.
