Designer handbags at Zippdog
Word is that Zippdog is stocking a new selection of designer handbags at its stores in Edmond (33rd and Broadway, in the same center as TJ Maxx) and Casady Square.
These are bags you would expect to see on Fifth Avenue in New York City and Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills. You’ll save money shopping here, though, because the merchandise at Zippdog is up to 66 percent off retail.
The family-run business offers high-end, designer-brand women’s apparel and accessories at prices that make some of us giddy. The owners have 40 years experience in the off-price retail business, so they know what they’re doing … and you get to pocket the savings.
At Zippdog, you never know what brands you’ll see, what treasures you’ll find. But that’s part of the fun.
Info: Zippdog in Edmond, 330-2300. At Casady Square, Britton and Pennsylvania, 848-5900.
