Bargin Step

Since 1947 brides-to-be have been flocking to downtown Boston, to find a steal on their bridal gowns. While Boston still remains a hot spot for "The Running of the Brides", you can now find this event at other Filene's Basement's.



This Friday, July 23rd, 2010, Chicago is hosting its "Running of the Brides". If you are a bride-to-be on a budget this is the place for you; gowns will run from $249to $699, normally marked $900 to $9000 plus. Do make sure you love that purchase though, all gowns are bought off the rack and are NON-returnable.



Be warned ladies bring a friend (or two), the more hands the better. Arrive early, many line up the night before to score that once in a lifetime deal. Leave your self conscience at the door, unfortunately once dressing rooms are full many are forced to try gowns on right there on the sales room floor.
