Yesterday morning I had to make a quick trip to the offices of the Monmouth County NJ Board of Realtors, to drop off a package. Once I finished running that errand, I made an attempt to drive out of the parking lot and head straight toward the NJ Turnpike North, and be on my merry way. Unfortunately fortunately for me, things turned out a bit differently.
Of course I couldn't resist finally taking a peak at the brand new Jersey Shore Premium Outlets which officially opened November 13, 2008. I've been waiting for this placed to be birth for what seems like forever. I love the outside facade of this place; it sort of has a nostalgic "Wildwood days" feel to it. Can you believe that the location is actually right off a road called "Route 66?" Now is that nostalgic or what!
As a recovering former shop-a-holic I am quite proud of myself and how I handled myself today;I only purchased a few items (2 pair of shoes, a dress plus 4 blouses) and didn't go overboard...lol! :)
Seriously though, the Jersey Shore Premium Outlets offers 120 quality designer brand name stores. I found it to be a great "dress for success" alternative to busy shopping malls for a business-minded Realtor like myself. I was able to find some of quality brands I appreciate (Ann Taylor, Burberry, Jones New York, Calvin Klein, BCBG, Michael Kors, Banana Republic, UGG, Elie Tahari & more) all at affordable prices. The Anne Klein Outlet Store is coming soon, and I cannot wait. They also have stores guys can really appreciate like Under Armour, Cole Hahn, Kenneth Cole, NIKE and Adidas.
Another thing that impressed me about this new shopping outlet, is that the stores offered current merchandise that is still wearable for the current season, and not a bunch of picked over leave-behinds that no one wants to buy. In fact, I even came across some fabulous designer leather purses in two of the stores, that I couldn't even find in any of the "high-end" department stores I recently visited.
The Jersey Shore Premium Outlets are conveniently located in Tinton Falls, an area in the heart of central New Jersey (Monmouth County) right off the Garden State Parkway.The Outlets are easily accessible from neighboring towns such as Freehold, Marlboro, Manalapan, Howell, Colts Neck, Holmdel, Old Bridge, Keyport, Hazlet, Matawan, Aberdeen Township, Sayreville, South , East Brunswick and many more. Use these directions to access the outlets via car.
I must say, my little impromptu shopping excursion to the "Jersey Shore Premium Outlets" was time & money well spent. I had lunch in their food court, picked up some classic pieces to add to my business wardrobe, and even got in a little exercise walking around to the various stores.
The "Jersey Shore Premium Outlets" has the potential to give the region economic and tourism boost at time like now when it's needed the most.
Please do yourself a favor, and pay this place a visit!
