Grand opening of Nordstrom Rack at Park Lane complex in Dallas on Thursday

by Lea Ann Stundins of of Mommy's Wish List

Hey, Dallasites. Remember when Park Lane and Central went BOOM! (I was there for that magnificent implosion and it was awe inspiring! Haven't seen such a crowd gathered on Greenville Avenue since last year's St. Patrick's Day Parade.) You've been watching them build a brand new shopping village right before your eyes over the past two years, right? Well it's about to come to fruition.

Want to know what stores are already signed up to be there?

Children's Place

Dick's Sporting Goods

Lane Bryant/Cacique

Nordstrom Rack

Aveda Institute

Aveda Store

Bailey's Prime Plus Steak

Gordon Biersch

Old Navy

Splitsville Lanes Bowling

Sports Club LA/Dallas

Village Burger Bar

and...

wait for it...

Whole Foods Market.

Anyway...one of the flagships of the new Park Lane complex will be a Nordstrom Rack! And to celebrate their grand opening on March 19, they're inviting us to line up outside the doors at early before they open at 9am and be one of the first 1000 people to enter the store and get a FREE Nordstrom Rack Tote Bag. (This is to shove all my major clothing deals into once I'm inside.) AND not only that, but one lucky lady will win an instant $1000 shopping spree with this stipulation: you have to grab all you can in 90 seconds! Ha! Haven't seen one of these dashes in ages, and I've never seen one in person. Worth going just for that entertainment value, right? Be there at 8:45 for the drawing with this sweepstakes entry filled out.
