head to ft. wayne, shop @VeraBradley at huge discounts and BE HAPPY! {#vbos16}

Yup – that’s MY plan in April of this year! Every year we tend to take a little road trip, me and some girlfriends. It’s changed up a big over the years, but it’s always in our calendar.

This year, the venue has not changed, it is still at the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum in Ft. Wayne, Indiana. I’m so excited about this that I had to put together a fun post about what all.the.fun that’s in store. Plus, all the deets. Because, details are necessary for road trips!!

TIPS!!

• Go in with a PLAN! I always bring my list with me. You can pick up a map either in line or when you first walk in.
• In addition, THEY provide you with bags. Do not bring your own bags, you can’t use them, but they got ya covered!
• Make sure they accept whatever form of payment you want. It would be AWFUL to do all the shopping and then you wouldn’t’ be able to pay how you want.
• Turn it in to a girls trip. We have planned a hotel night with dinner and then did the 7:30 am session. You can be back home that day if you aren’t too far! We have SO much fun doing this!
