This is a warehouse sale store. You usually have to reserve a ticket to go in (for free) or stand and wait in the standby line. Alternative retail has you enter by timed on your ticket and you only have that hour to spend. Parking was free. The items in the warehouse were hit or miss. I went for weekend 2 of beis and 2 other brands. If you were there for the weekender, totes, and some backpacks and pet carriers that was your chance. Parking is free. Prices were about 50% off (at least for the weekender)

I came to the Zumiez Warehouse Sale here in Santa Ana today and I thought it was pretty cool. They had a good selection of clothes but the only things was that I saw too many of the same shirts. I got 3 shirts for $8 each, not bad. I will definitely come back for more Warehouse Sales.

This is a gem of a find. Specialty clothing sales each week and you get them at a good discount. I like coming with my gf on the weekend.

Lots of merchandise. Amazing prices. I wish there were mirrors & fitting rooms. Be ready to try on items over your clothes & use your phone to see how things look.

They let friends and family buy all the good stuff the night before/earlier in the morning and don't restock. Staff has gotten rude and often overcharges. Raised prices between 20% and 60% on the Vuori sale and some clothes are cheaper to get on sale from Vuori themselves. Not really worth going back. Also the Tustin location set up sucks.

My family and I have been to quite a few of their sales including Melin, Herschel, Designer Name Brands and most importantly Vuori! I've been to the last two Vuori's. You need a ticket, I dont know what the capacity is set on Event Brite per hour slot, but they go very quickly. You do have to be on it, as soon as you receive the notification through the app. The prices are obviously better than retail, but it's not dirt cheap, in the range of 40-60% off. I was just telling my cousin that we leave all our financial morals at the door and go ham on every item Vuori carries! The quality is amazing, lots of current season items and the quality is beautiful! We are obsessed! They are final sale items, so examine each item carefully before purchasing. Some of the re-labeled items are incorrectly sized. I have seen a few "defective" items. I can't imagine the volume of items they have on pallets in the back, but they do bring out more stuff as the hours and days go on. They could bring out more stuff faster... hehe There are two locations, both have decent parking and easily accessible. They scan your ticket, wristband you and will let you in at the top of the hour. They usually let some stand by in on the 30- but you only get 30 minutes to shop. That line gets pretty long and people wait for hours. Karina is very pleasant, which always makes spending money a better experience! I recognize her face from each event and she is always smiling, willing to answer questions and is professional. She actually likes her job! I totally appreciate a hard worker- those are definitely hard to come by now adays.

I've worked in some capacity of merchandise all my life; textiles, manufacturing, screen printing, etc. I love a brand wholesale experience when I get a chance. And so do my kids! :D I forget how I stumbled across my 1st Alternative Retail on Eventbrite. Probably a happy algorithm that I manifested; lol. AR has 2 locations in Santa Ana & Tustin. Everything is apx 50-60% from what I can gather. Current and last season surplus. Some of the customers scream resellers but to each their own. Things I bought: @Herschel sale: Simpsons x Herschel backpack $35, bifold wallet $15, camo insulated metal tumbler $10-15(?), Simpsons baseball snapback $15. Luggage and sunglasses looked nice but I didn't buy them. Hubs got sunglasses. @Volcom sale: fitted cap $15, boys button up $20, boys sweatshirt $20, boys sandals $15; super spongy/shock absorbent! This week is Olukai. Next week is someone else. Bylt, Quiksilver, and Roxy have been brands in the past. It's worth a gander if you're in the area. Tickets are free on Eventbrite; find RA and follow them!! I've never had a problem getting my time slot on tickets but if it is sold out, you can go and wait in the standby. People typically line up and they let you in at the start of each hour...so you really don't need to get in line 30 mins in advance! The last time I showed up at 4:40, knowing the 4:00 crowd had started thinning out. I walked right in through the standby and took less than 20 mins to shop & get out. Highly recommend for your discounted retail therapy needs!!

Came for the L Space and Brixton Warehouse Sale today and it was amazing. Bikinis were $20 for the bottoms, $20 for the tops when they're usually anywhere from $70-$100 each on the L Space website. Got a top for $25 that retails at $125 from them as well. All bikinis were organized into bins by size. Brixton had racks of clothing by size and gender. Very organized. Employees were very efficient at the register and also very efficient with putting back all of the clothes that people didn't want anymore. I will absolutely be coming back.

Pretty well organized for the outlet sales they’re having. Accept cash or credit cards and all sales are final. That entire plaza area is catered to outdoor sporting gear retail outlets, so if you don’t find what you were looking for at Alternative Retail, there are other stores next door or across the parking lot.

I would barely call this a sale, I went to the Frankie's bikinis sale and bikini tops and bottoms were $30 each. Going online to Frankie's website or revolve or Nordstrom rack or saks off fifth or tj max has Frankie's bikinis cheaper. This is not a "warehouse sale"

this place is the best place to go and get bikinis and anything on sale. Recently, I just went to the O'Neill warehouse sale and let me tell you it was 100% worth it. I got a bikini set for $24. And some coverups as well. The workers are super nice and they're constantly restocking to make sure that you get what you want. The ticket system is super easy and I've never had a problem getting in. The reason why I gave four out of five stars it's just because sometimes it can get a little crowded but that's just personally my opinion. Make sure to follow their Instagram they are super active and they keep you updated all the time.

Went to VIOURI sale and great stuff, problem was we bought same size and last sale but fit smaller than other shorts and pants we bought previously. Sizing seems off and we spent over $300 to know they didn’t fit my husband. We drove from temecula and shop the sales often. Hoping maybe an exception would be made on these items we bought today. Just frustrated and disappointed with items.We went back the next day and they were very understanding. Allowed us to exchange without issues. Thank you. Love this clothing; it is so comfortable.

Good business would recommend but it can be chaotic and disorganized at times. Fair prices for the brands. Not dirt cheap but half off or more of retail.
