[MAYHEM]

My husband and recently took a road trip over our vacation to tour the QVC outlets in PA and Delaware. We first drove 4 hours to Frazer and were a little surprised that I was just on the end of a strip mall. It was kinda dark and disorganized. The shoe section was poor, the clothing racks are like thumbing through a Marshalls. Plenty of cookwear! Lots of purses, but all of the Dooneys are behind glass SIDEWAYS! You can't see them. I don't want to waste a saleswomans time and feel pressured if I'm just looking. We left with one B. Makowsky purse in a lovely soft blue. Bit disappointed, so....

We drove 5 mins to the Studio store in West Chester. NOT what I expected either! So tiny, an after thought. One of something on each shelf which you then write down on a little card for the cashier to grab from the backroom. A handful of clothing items, which if you need to try on, they get you your size and direct you to the ladie's bathroom. At least the makeup is out so you can see the shades. We left empty handed.

Not wanting to waste a trip with nothing to show, so we drove another 2 hours to Rehoboth Beach Delaware. Reviews online said this outlet was the best. MUCH BETTER! This was what we were expecting. Generally the same stuff, but cleaner presentation and better lighting. Tons of cookware, purses, clothing, Spanx, AND YOU CAN SEE THE DOONEYS! Still behind glass, but facing out! We bought a little Temptations chicken set (<$20), 4 pairs of Legacy Legwear tights for $1.13 each, a Dooney for $99!! and odds and ends. Only spent $165 and DE has NO SALES TAX.

Rehoboth Beach is all tourists and outlet shops, so that must be why it was better. If your looking for electronics, theres none- sorry guys.

We will go back to DE this fall in the off season now that we know what to expect. Theres many things to do as well. Don't bother with the PA outlets, and the Studio is really just a "gift shop" for after the tour.
