The Canadian Dollar Goes Further in Burlington

The Outlet Shoppes at Burlington offer a 10% discount to Canadian customers this fall

As if the impending costs of the Christmas season weren’t stressful enough, the continued plummet of the Canadian dollar is kicking financial concerns into high gear. The good news is that the Outlet Shoppes at Burlington, a long-time Lower Mainland favourite located just 50 minutes from the border, is reaching out to its northerly neighbours with an additional 10 percent discount this fall.“Many Canadians like to book Shop and Stay hotel packages,” explains Gina Slechta of Horizon Group Properties. “Staying in Burlington, easily accessed from the I-5 and Hwy 20, can save you 10 to 20 percent over the larger metropolitan areas.”The Shoppes, which feature the world’s only Filson’s and Lululemon Athletica outlet stores in addition to Helly Hansen, NIKE, Puma, GAP, Eddie Bauer, Pendleton and more, sell high quality brands at significantly lower prices. The additional 10 percent reduction offered to Canadian customers this fall will balance out the current weakness of the Canadian dollar and keep Burlington a best bet for shoppers all season long.Fight the falling dollar without fighting local crowds this Canadian Thanksgiving as you get a head start on your Christmas list (and Christmas budget) in Burlington—the perfect place to stay and play in Washington.
