I spent yesterday night shopping at Metrotown at Metropolis for the LOULOU Shop 'Til You Drop event! It was a super fun night that a lot of people participated in. The participating retailers also went all out and hosted great parties in their respective stores.
There was a huge lineup for the swag bags by the time I got there. Everyone got a bag though, which included a LOULOU magazine!
The Grand Court was the place to sit back and lounge and watch performances and presentations when you got tired from shopping. The Metrotown Glee club gave several performances during the night.
There was a candy bar at the Grand Court. Metrotown provides you with the sugar you need for shopping!
LOULOU Editor, Liv Judd gave a presentation on fall trends at 7pm that I missed because I was eating dinner at Stonegrill. =( The mannequins were still there showcasing the clothing though.
The Social Media Haute Spot in the Atrium Court was the place to Tweet and Facebook - even if you didn't have a smartphone. There were laptops provided for shoppers to update their statuses which were posted on a live feed on a TV screen!
If you checked into FourSquare and show the Shop 'Til You Drop attendants at the Social Media Haute Spot, you received a cute foam Bug keychain! These were also included in some of the swag bags given out.
Now for the shopping! Forever XXI was crazy busy, with 10% off everything in store.
Almost all the stores had amazing discounts or gifts with purchases.
There was another candy bar at Jacob. Also everything was 25% off!
The GAP had a 30% discount! Guests also had their nails done and enjoyed a frozen treat from Pinkberry! Yum!
Opus catering served up sweets and drinks at GUESS.
And GUESS by Marciano had live models standing in the display window!
What a night! It was full of deals and shopping fun! I say that 3 hours of shopping isn't nearly long enough! Can't wait for the one next year!
