3 Day Sample Sale for Charity: Sept 24-26

You need new clothes, but your wallet tells you "No!". Well, there is a huge sample sale coming up that will go easy on your wallet and help feed your soul as well!

A Miner Miracle Shop (I've blogged about them before - see end of post for more info) will be hosting San Francisco's biggest three-day sample sale fundraiser in September. With over 5,000 square feet of space to shop and merchandise restocked every hour, this is likely going to be the sample sale of the season. I've been told to expect over 5,000 new items from designers such as Calvin Klein, Paper Denim & Cloth, DKNY, Joan Vass and Ann Taylor all marked down 80% below retail priced.

Location: 441 Sutter Street (btw Stockton & Powell) 415-398-2155

When: 10am-6pm; Thurs. Sept. 24 – Sat. Sept.26

100% of the proceeds benefit A Miner Miracle a San Francisco-based non-profit that provides professional clothing and image counseling to low-income men, women and young adults seeking employment.

Ann Taylor Sample Sale: Tues. March 31

Ann Taylor Sample Sale Tues. March 31. Thousands of Spring & Fall Items. They restock the floor every hour. It's a sample sale, so expect crowds, but when you can score a great top for $5, what do you expect.

A Miner Miracle Shop (5th & Mission)

Ever since I found this store, I have been telling literally everyone I know about it.

A Miner Miracle Shop is a woman's clothing boutique downtown that sells name brand clothes (think Michael Kors, DKNY, Ann Taylor, Lucy) at 50-90% off retails. Hello??? I got a super soft Michale Kors winter coat for $59. I got a an Ann Taylor cashmere hoodie and a nice "work" shirt. All three of the items set me back less than $100. The coat alone sells for $300 in Bloomingdales across the street. The store is not huge, but everything in there is top quality. No junk to sort through. Everything is in season, names you know and the best value ever.
Now, as if that was not enough, here is where I fell in love: Every penny the store makes supports A Miner Miracle's programs that offer clothing and image consulting to low income men and women seeking employment. Its a total win win. I get a good deal on great clothes AND I am giving to charity! Its a no brainer.

Miner Miracle SHOP is conveniently located near Union Square, across from the Westfield Shopping Center. 899 Mission Street at 5th Street (Ground floor of the garage at 5th and Mission - and 1 block from Powell street BART) Open Monday through Saturday 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM (415) 543-0293.
