7th Annual Johnson Creek Premium Outlets Deer Widows Weekend
Popular Outlet Center Celebrates the Start of Deer Hunting Season with Time-Honored Three-Day Shopping Extravaganza

In celebration of the thrill of the bargain hunt, Johnson Creek Premium Outlets is hosting its 7th annual Deer Widows Weekend bash. Every year when the hunters head out into the woods, shoppers head to the racks at Johnson Creek Premium Outlets. The three-day bargain-bagging extravaganza will be filled with prizes, special events and great deals on top of brand name retailers’ everyday savings of 25 to 65 percent. Deer Widows Weekend, which runs from Friday, Nov. 17 – Sunday, Nov. 19, coincides with the opening weekend of deer hunting season and allows those left out of the hunt to score some fashionable prizes of their own.
“Deer Widows Weekend is bargain hunting at its best,” said Bonnie Hertel, General Manager at Johnson Creek Premium Outlets. “Thousands of shoppers flock to the center every year at this time in search of fun, enormous value and unmatched selection leading into the busy holiday shopping season.”
Throughout the weekend shoppers can visit Johnson Creek Premium Outlets’ guest services office to pick up a free Bargain Hunting Guide featuring special savings from stores including Columbia Sportswear, Banana Republic Factory, Le Creuset, Lindt Chocolate, Under Armour and many more.
