Gilt is a “by invitation only” sample sale site that provides you with designer brands at up to 70% off retail price! Each sale lasts 36 hours and sells out quickly because it’s first-come first-serve. Gilt has new sales every day that cater to men, women, children and the home with designers like Prada, Calvin Klein, and Giorgio Armani. The prices continue to surprise me – I’ve found $300 designer jeans for around 100 bucks! So what’s the catch, right? Unfortunately, Gilt has gotten a bad rep for its customer service and only gives store credit for the few items that are returnable. I haven’t experienced these shortcomings, however, because I’ve yet to want to return one of my Gilt purchases. If you can be certain that you will want to keep what you order, Gilt really is the way to live the high life without the high prices!
