Day 1: Our annual Christmas shopping trip kicks off with an early morning pickup at the LMC Yard on 4th Street in Marrero, Louisiana. Excitement fills the air as we board the bus and begin our journey eastward through scenic Gulf Coast landscapes until we arrive at our first major destination: the Tanger Outlets in Foley, Alabama. Shoppers eagerly head into the outlet mall, exploring a wide variety of stores offering fantastic holiday deals on clothing, accessories, home goods, and more. After several hours of shopping, we meet at the bus for a scheduled bag drop, allowing everyone to store their purchases safely before continuing their retail therapy. Later in the afternoon, an optional early departure to the Beachfront hotel in Orange Beach is available for those who wish to check in, relax, and settle into their rooms. Guests who choose to remain at the outlets can continue shopping or unwind until evening. As dinner time approaches, the bus departs from the hotel with any guests who opted for early check-in and heads back to the outlets to pick up the remaining group. Together, we make our way to the famous Lambert's Cafe in Foley, where guests can enjoy a delicious dinner featuring homestyle Southern cooking and their iconic "throwed rolls," making for a fun and memorable dining experience. After dinner, we board the bus once more and return to the hotel for a restful night after a full day of travel and shopping. 

 Day 2: The day begins with a leisurely breakfast at the hotel, giving everyone time to fuel up for another day of holiday shopping and adventure. Guests have the option to depart for Olde Time Pottery in the morning, where they can explore aisles filled with home decor, kitchenware, and unique finds perfect for Christmas gifts. For those who prefer to spend more time at the outlets, the bus departs from the hotel mid-morning, stopping at Olde Time Pottery to pick up any guests before heading back to the Tanger Outlets. Shoppers have the rest of the morning and early afternoon to snag last-minute holiday deals and enjoy all the outlets have to offer. By mid-afternoon, it’s time to say goodbye to Foley as we board the bus and begin our journey home. Along the way, we make a fun stop at Buc-ee's, where guests can grab snacks, souvenirs, and any final purchases for the trip back. As the sun sets, we arrive back home, wrapping up a weekend full of Christmas shopping, good food, and great company. Thank you for joining us on our Annual Christmas Shopping Trip to Foley – we hope you had a wonderful time and look forward to seeing you again next year!
