They're opening up a Burlington Coat Factory in my town.

It's a no-brainer for this climate. People around here buy coats and jackets often, and they like them with quality, yet relatively cheap.

I haven't bought a new jacket in years. It's dirty as hell now. Hopefully it'll be open by the time the temp gets into the 30's again.

1. They're pretty good stores.

And not just for coats. I was just their this weekend.

I bought a pair of those big baggy shorts that kids like to wear. It was either that or get those shorts with the stains already in them. So I went with the baggy ones. I sure don't look my age, but at least they're comfortable.

2. I guess they have high-end designer brands for really cheap.

I went to one in the Twin Cities area. They were selling stuff from Puffy's line (Sean John) and Ecko, and other high-end brands.

3. I used to work at a Burlington Coat.

Check out the coats carefully (and I mean carefully) before you buy them.
