Usually on our trips to Vegas we go to the Outlets and buy 2 or 3 pairs of shoes each as they are so much cheaper here than at home. This time however we had left the shopping until now as we really didn't want to be carting excess baggage all over the USA!I had done a bit of research at home and discovered a new Outlet Mall just about 20-30 minutes south of Memphis, actually over the state line and in Mississippi.... yay another State to add to the list!
