Did you hear about Concord Mills’ “Better Than Tax Free” event?

Mark your calendars for this brand new event. You will not want to miss the awesome deals!

For one weekend only, July 25 – 27, Concord Mills, the largest outlet and value retail shopping destination in North Carolina, will debut its “Better Than Tax Free” event, featuring unmatched savings from dozens of popular retailers. This first-ever sales event, which is part of Concord Mills’ Summer of Savings promotion, will offer shoppers added value on back-to-school shopping with an additional 10 percent off already discounted merchandise.

Concord Mills is home to more than 200 stores, nearly 40 of which specialize in merchandise for children and teens to help students look their best for the new school year. Popular stores offering Better Than Tax Free savings include Books-A-Million, Brooks Brothers Factory Store, Carter’s, Claire’s, The Disney Store Outlet, DKNY Company Store, Haggar Clothing Co., HANESbrands, J.Crew Factory, The Limited Outlet, Nautica Factory Store, New York & Company Outlet, Oshkosh B’Gosh Outlet, Skechers USA Outlet, Tommy Bahama Outlet, Wilson’s Leather and more. For a complete list of participating retailers, shoppers are encouraged to pick up a Retailer Showcase at any of Concord Mills’ main entrances throughout the weekend.

“Concord Mills is already the place for back-to-school shopping with an unmatched selection of stores offering savings second only to Black Friday,” said Nan Gray, director of marketing and business development at Concord Mills. “In just 10 days, Concord Mills will step up to the plate and provide its own version of tax relief for back-to-school shopping since there will be no sales tax holiday in North Carolina this year.”

The Summer of Savings at Concord Mills will also provide families with the opportunity to enjoy valuable time together at unique dining and entertainment venues throughout the month of August. Sea Life Charlotte-Concord, AMC 24-Screen Theatres / IMAX and The SPEEDPARK, as well as Chili’s Too, Tony Sacco’s Coal Oven Pizza and Dave & Buster’s will all offer exclusive Summer of Savings deals.

Plus, social media savvy shoppers can vie for the chance to win several $250 gift cards from popular retailers. These contests will be open to fans of Concord Mills’ Facebook page, which can be found at www.facebook.com/ConcordMills.
