Hey everyone, I recently registered for the Vera Bradley Spring 2009 Outlet Sale. It's relatively quick and painless. Here are a few more details if you are thinking of doing the advance online registration...
The fee to do this is $5.00 per person. Only one registration per individual will be accepted. It's good for the entire five days of the sale, whether you plan to attend once or to attend multiple times.
Registrants must be 14 years of age or older, although children younger than fourteen can attend the sale. Actually, anyone (registered or not) can attend the sale. However, only those people who are registered can make purchases.
To avoid lines at the Outlet Sale, you may want to consider registering in advance. This can be done online by visiting:

PLEASE NOTE: Online registration is no longer available, but according to the Vera Bradley website, there is registration available on site at the Allen County Memorial Coliseum during the sale.
Step five of the pre-registration process does allow you to sign up other attendees. At this step, you will see your name (that you just entered), as well as a button that states "Add Additional Person". This will take you to a screen where you can add their information. You will need their full name, address, age range (i.e. 35-44), and e-mail address.
The final step of the online process will generate a barcode for each registered individual. Make sure you have ink and paper for your printer, because you will need to print this barcode and take it with you the sale. It will be checked against your identification at the the Vera Bradley Outlet Sale, which is scheduled from April 29, 2009 through May 3, 2009, at the Allen County Memorial Coliseum in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
The Vera Bradley Company has a few incentives for those who do participate in advance registration:
- a gift at checkout
- a coupon for $10 off your purchase of $50 or more (valid only on Friday, May 1)
- e-mails regarding special deals during the sale
- coupons for other Fort Wayne area vendors
Overall, the Vera Bradley outlet sale advance registration process was rather easy. It took only a few minutes. I also signed up my mom, and can confirm that the "add additional person" feature was simple to use.
If you have any questions, feel free to post them below. Due to time constraints, I do not always get around to answering emails on a timely basis, so it's better to leave a comment here to get my attention - that way anyone else that has the same question will also have it answered too! Also, even if I do not know the answer, maybe one of our other visitors will be able to help...
