They have the days posted for Spring 2010 but nothing about a Fall sale so I would guess that they aren't having one. But I hope I am wrong! :-) lol No one that I talk to seems to know if they are having a Fall Sale.

BTW, if you thought the sale was busy...our local paper reported that more than 62,000 people attended, and Friday, Saturday, and Sunday had double the foot traffic of Wednesday and Thursday.

The deals were amazing, but selection was extremely limited, as the big signs said in the parking lot. I didn't have to wait to get in, but did have to stand in line two hours to pay. I got there about 1, and left at 4. I was told by two people that Friday was the most crowded day, and that Wed. and Thursday were not that bad. I may try Thursday next time, or Saturday. I drove about two hours each way. On Sunday there was a lot of Riviera Blue and Kensington. My only regret is that I didn't buy a garment bag for $23. I agree with the commentor who was disappointed to see that all the stuff is made in China now. I normally don't buy things made in China, but I make an exception for VB.

Last year we did wait a few minutes to get in, but didn't have to wait hardly at all to check out. We left and came back and just walked back in! We expected to do the same thing this year so we made our purchases and then were going to go back in to get some things for friedns/coworkers, but after we got outside we saw the HUGE line and vetoed that idea! We had 10 hours home to drive! I couldn't believe people pushing and shoving over Java Blue! I thought people would be more interested in newer patterns. The associate couldn't get them out of the box fast enough for these greedie's! Geez- I have 4 at home.. if you need one that bad, I'll give you one just use some manners!!

Purchased $550 worth of product for $98. I wish I would have gotten more. The prices were great on Saturday. Can't wait until next year! WORTH THE DRIVE!

She said that last year they didn't anounce the dates of the 09 sale, but this year they gave the dates for the '10 sale - which is why she didn't think there would be one int he fall.
