If you're one of those people who take forever to decide to buy something despite how great the sale is RedTagCrazy.com is not for you.
From the site:
We sell one hot item from one sought-after label at a time, casual and designer, at deep discounts of 50-80%. Quantities are limited, time is limited, and our attention span is limited - so stay awake. We'll work hard to find the brands you want, as long as you work hard to continue buying them. This is retail therapy at its finest, and you'll never hit the mall again.
Current sale, as of 3:58 p.m., Monday, Feb. 2.
Tomorrow Feb. 3, L.A. East will be having an epic in-store party, complete with sales, free beer, wine and food, along with two special guests:

Check out the first in our weekly feature on consignment stores around Charlotte. This week, we checked out Sweet Repeats, located in the Dilworth area.
The economy may be in trouble, but that doesnt mean us girls have stopped shopping for nice things. It just means we arent willing to pay such a high price for them! That is where Sweet Repeats comes in. Located in the Dilworth area, Sweet Repeats has been in business since September of 1996. Realizing more space was needed for their growing boutique, the owners, sister-duo Jenny Burnett and Amy King, purchased the spot next door. The original store on the left is now deemed casual, and the space on the right, career. The consignment shop carries designers such as Nanette Lepore for the younger gals and St. John for the more mature women. You can also find the classics: Gucci, Prada, Chanel, and Louis Vuitton. Burnett is most proud of their handbag section. It certainly is drool-worthy. If you cant make a stop in to see the real thing, check out their new Web site to shop online at www.sweetrepeatsboutique.com.
