    I went to this last year with my MOH and it really is a hit or miss. Most of the sizes are very small or very large and not much in between. I am sure there are great finds but you really do need to have more than two girls going in to get the dreses because they all get swiped up pretty quickly.

    Ditto pp. Not a lot of in between sizes. Also, I had a particular idea of what kind of dress I wanted and didn't find it. It was still fun to go with my mom--we are also the crazy 5am day after Thanksgiving shoppers :)

    I went today and found a fantastic dress.  The sales girl told me they are having the event again in July.  
    I went a little late, about 11 am.  It was crowded, but not crazy like you see on TV.  In bridal I'm a size 12/14 and I found plenty to try on (probably 20+ dresses).  There was a variety of sizes, styles and colors.
