Marshall's - if it still opened, I think somebody told me it's closing on Market @ 5th. Ross on Market @ 4th. Burlington on 4th @ Howard.

Just look them up before arriving to make sure they are still there.

For shoes, comfy and inexpensive, Aerosoles on Sutter @ Stockton.

I could be wrong but I don't think that Ross, Marshall's and Burlington are what the OP had in mind. I *think* they are looking for high end designer closes that are sold at brand specific outlet stores, usually located in a shopping center full of similar stores.

This may be closest - http://www.simon.com/mall/great-mall

There's a Nordstrom Rack in the city - at 8th and Brannan - that's probably your best bet for designer duds at a discount within the city limits.

Oh, and Jeremy's:

Many thanks for your helpful tips.

Thank you Danyenu, how did you know that I have a shoe 'addiction'? Great, I also love shoes that are inexpensive and comfy - suit my budget fine. Cheers.

and DebitNM: thanks for your input. Do appreciate your time.

sf3707: thank you for the website addresses. It all helps tremendously. Much appreciated.

happy shopping to me ... Can't wait

There is also a DSW right on Powell kind of across the street form H&M. One year my DD & I picked up a bunch of shoes there.

There is also an UGGS - not an outlet though- on Sutter if you like those.

Thanks a lot for the info Suzie. I now think 2days in San Francisco may not be long enough
