CRS 261- First journal favorite retailer

Favorite retailer: Saks Fifth Avenue 
Ever since I can remember my Dad and I  would go to Saks in Boston every year after Christmas for the after Christmas sale. Usually the sale would be up to 70% off, I would usually get a new pair of designer jeans and my dad would get a nice pair of leather dress shoes. Over the years I have never had a bad experience. There are 4 main high end retailers that have alot the same stuff they are  Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Barneys New York, and Nordstroms. I have shopped many times at all of these stores because coming from MA, I have the higher end options closer to me rather than in NC you have to travel further.

There are many reasons why I chose Saks as my favorite retailer.  The first is I love the costumer service they offer, whenever I'm there even if it is just on sale items they help me go threw the racks and help me find sizes and colors. Also the sales people aren't rude and stuck up, at the other high end retails the sales people act like there special because they work there and aren't very helpful. Also the sales are alot better because the mark down items are usually an additional 50% off. Thirdly the store itself I just like the way the layout of the store is set up. I find it the it easiest to find things you are looking for. Most of the high end retailers all have alot of the same brands, but the amount of assortment is defiantly not the same. Saks defiantly has the best.
