If you've been reading this blog for any length of time you probably know of my love of the finer things in life.
What can I say, I like to buy nice stuff - I can't help it!
Some may call it excessive, but i call it happy soothing retail therapy for the soul, i.e. anyway to rationalize buying new shoes/purses/dresses/etc.
With the holiday season coming up my shopping gene goes into overdrive so when I was approached about a shopping event for charity my ears definitely perked up.
On Saturday, November 20th, from 4 to 9pm, Beachwood Place Mall is hosting the Compassion From Fashion event, a charity to benefit The Gathering Place which is a community for those touched by cancer.
For a ticket price of $20 (pre-sale purchase online) or $25 (at the door), with 100% of your ticket price going th The Gathering Place, you receive the following:
- $10 Beachwood Place gift certificate (first 500 ticket buyers)
- $10 McCormick and Schmick's dining certificate (first 500 ticket buyers)
- $10 Next gift card (first 500 ticket buyers)
- Free food from Maggiano's Little Italy - 5 stations will be set up across the mall including a make your own pasta station, salad/fruit bar, carving station, antipasto bar, and dessert station
- Exclusive retailer discounts (this is the good part...)
Now while those perks listed above are reason enough to rationalize the ticket price for charity, the big draw for me to attend this event is the SHOPPING DISCOUNTS!!!
Some of the retailer promotions that caught my attention:
- Saks Fifth Avenue, 15% off entire purchase
- Style Lounge, 40% off entire purchase
- American Eagle, 15% off entire purchase
- Bath and Body Works, $10 off purchase of $30 or more
- Eddie Bauer, 30% off entire purchase
- Express, 15% off entire purchase
- Guess and Guess by Marciano, 20% off your purchase of $100 or more
- J Jill, $20 off your purchase of $80 or more
- Mario's International Spa, purchase $100 in gift certificates receive $50 in gift certificates free
- Plus many more!
Retailers are continuing to be added, and a full list of available discounts can be found here.
Talk about being able to recoup your ticket price, I'll shop to that!!
I have a feeling I'm going to be doing a little bit of shopping damage on November, 20th to say the least.

SO SAD i do not live in cleveland right now. (don't enter me for the drawing, despite my ardent wish that i could participate...)
ReplyDeleteI love Express :) I REALLY want to win - November 20 is my birthday and this would be a GREAT way to celebrate! Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteDamnit! I'm going to consider moving to Cleveland just so I can start participating in all the fun events you talk about over here!
ReplyDeleteI hope you and all the shoppers have a blast and give lots to charity!
How sad, I've never been to Beachwood Place! I keep myself exiled to the West side. I really need to get out more!
ReplyDeleteI love Nordstrom! I never make it out to Beachwood anymore, I miss it!
ReplyDeleteI'm addicted to the MAC counter at Nordstrom!
ReplyDelete2 favorite stores are Saks & Teeks Natural Garden - they have the cutest baby stuff!
ReplyDeleteLove beachwood and my favorite store is banana republic. Love their polos and tshirts and would love to win this giveaway!
ReplyDeleteSEPHORA! I could spend all day in there, not even stopping to eat! :)
ReplyDeleteFollowing beachwood on twitter and retweeted! I think you know were to find me if I win. Clevelandfoodandbrews@gmail.com or on twitter @clefoodandbrews. Thanks. :)

Nordstrom!
ReplyDeleteI love the giant Bath & Body Works store in Beachwood Place. They carry so much more than the basic "signature line."
ReplyDeleteAs a kid, if we behaved while my dad got his custom-fit shirts at Christian St. John, then we'd be treated to Chick-fil-A and TCBY! The mall has changed a lot since then, (I still miss the glass elevator) but I still treat myself to "the sandwiches with the pickles" and remember those days!
I also tweeted about this contest!
ReplyDeleteH&M!
ReplyDeleteClosest one to me, so I go there all the time!

I heart Nordstroms.....
ReplyDeleteI tweeted the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteOh, and I already follow Beachwood Place on twitter (does this count, too??)! :)
ReplyDeleteArden B. is my favorite store! What a great event!

How nerdy is it if my favorite store at Beachwood Place is the GAP? I just love the GAP, OK? OKAY? Anyway, I love Beachwood Place. I live near Chapel Hill, which, despite its tagline, is NOT "the friendliest mall of all." More like "the most-likely-to-get-shot-while-shopping mall."
ReplyDeleteAnyway, because GAP is not included on the Compassion for Fashion list (shame on you, GAP), I sure do like BCBG MAXAZRIA.
I must say that my favorite place at Beachwood Mall is Sephora! I can spend hours and lots of money in that store!
ReplyDelete@LH2007
Tough choice but I'd Sephora is my favorite store. This is going to be such a great event!

ReplyDeleteI am a big Beachwood Place fan and often frequent H&M... along with the Happy Hour at McCormick and Schmick's... :o)

ReplyDeleteWhat a great event for a great cause! We just found out my husband's best friend (and best man from our wedding) has testicular cancer and have such a greater appreciation for events like this.
ReplyDeleteOur favorite store at Beachwood Place is Nordstrom. They have great clothing departments, shoe department, and make-up department.
Oops, I forgot to include my e-mail address: eringatta@gmail.com
