Fads come and go, but shopping for bargains is never out of style. Millions of visitors come to the Bay Area every year, and millions more live here. It's safe to assume that all these people are doing a little bit of shopping-and probably spending more money then they need to. Luckily for Bay Area shoppers, Sally Socolich is back with an updated edition of her best-selling guide to the best bargains around, from San Francisco to Sonoma. Profiling more than 650 discount stores, warehouses, and factory outlets, "Bargain Hunting in the Bay Area" tells readers what to expect in the way of service, selection, and savings. Listings by category - from clothing and cookware to watches and wall-paper - are cross-referenced in handy indexes by store name, location, and type of merchandise. This comprehensive, practical guide should be in the hands of every Bay Area shopper - because there's no excuse for paying full price.

The definitive guide "Sunset"

From the Publisher:

From The Orange County Register:
"From beads and Birkenstocks to famous label clothing and fishing equipment, this chunky paperback covers it all. The book features a helpful glossary of bargain-hunting terms (jobber, knockoff, liquidated stock, etc.) and three useful indexes of stores listed alphabetically, geographically and by subject. Author Sally Socolich covers hundreds of discount stores, retail outlets and sales in San Francisco, Marin County, the central valley, Sonoma, and Napa, Solano County and Sacramento. Socolich, a columnist for the San Francisco Chronicle, knows how to shop and reminds readers that bargains are relative. 'Don't confuse cheap with value,' she reminds us."
