If you want to argue more about it, I really suggest you visit their website so you can compare their other locations with Norman…Boca Raton, Beverly Hills, Palos Verdes…I’m not being mean, it’s just realistic.

Not trying to argue, but it seems you want to. I was just answering your question. You asked how many people I knew in Norman shopped at Saks on a regular basis. Your meaning being that everyone in Norman is too poor to shop at Saks. I was just saying that's not the case, people in Norman don't shop at Saks regularly because there's not one around.

That's like insinuating that people in Norman are too poor to afford a meal at Senor Frog's and that's why they don't eat there regularly. However, since there's not one within a 1000 miles of Norman that might have something to do with why Norman citizens aren't regular customers there.

^ You can find most of the same items you can find at Saks or Nordstroms at Norman's own Caymans on Main, on a smaller-scale. I think it would be cool to see a larger two story Cayman's open up on Campus Corner with womens apparel on the first floor and mens on the second. It would be absolutely packed on gamedays and bring more people to the Corner.

...a smaller scale and far less expensive scale.

We are talking Saks, people, the same store Winona Ryder stole over $6,000 worth of merchandise! That's the point, everything in Saks is extremly expensive and I really don't think it's realistic that they would ever be successful in a town like Norman. We are talking $1500 for one item....I don't think so, not here!!

so allure..I can't really tell from your posts...Are you saying that Norman can afford a Saks??

My wife would do backflips if the metro ever does get a Nordstrom's...Wide variety of $150 jeans and $200 shoes....Hurts me just to think about it!

No, I don't think Norman can afford a Saks.

On a regular basis, NO, I don't think enough of Norman could support a Saks, regardless of whoever lives or travels to Norman, for whatever reason.

This has gone beyond our general discussion of 'upscale stores', though, as we are just talking about Saks Fifth Avenue now. And no, Norman will NEVER have a Saks Fifth Avenue, period. You are arguing with the geodemographics now, not me.
