It’s been a long day - I’m exhausted, so I’m just going to quote directly from the Bargains LA email that tipped me off to this:
The pricing is super! A pair of Steve Madden Aplegate boots retail at $129, but are here at just $52. A pair of CoutureDonald Pliner Doris boots usually go for $3! 35, but are here at $134. How about a pair of Guess trendy boots for $44 instead of $110? Your tootsies will revel in a pair of $250 Cole Haan Air Kierstin for $100 and you may be seriously tempted to snatch up a pair of Casadei Pellame boots for $210 instead of the original $700. Here you can have the boots you’ve been pinning for… for a lot less.

K. First off, what’s the difference between a “clearance event” and a “clearance sale?”
I know this is semantics, but I’m genuinely curious… is it just that the business holding the sale doesn’t want to acknowledge that they’re parting with stuff at a lower rate? That they’re “above” sales? Is it that they think listing something as an “event” makes it sound bigger and snazzier? I’ve noticed that car dealerships do this a lot, but somehow the linguistics really stick out more when it’s something, oh, I dunno, not sleazy, like EMS doing the pitch.
Nevertheless, there are stellar deals to be had at EMS right now. I’m a little slow on the draw for this sale, so sorry if you have an unusual shoe size that’s already been snatched up!
Since this is a repeating event, I’ll keep it on my radar and hopefully be able to list it earlier next time!
Thanks!
