Deals & Steals: Hurricane Earl Edition

Seems that Hurricane Earl is throwing a wrench in a lot of Labor Day Weekend plans, so while we’re waiting for the rain and winds to clear out, shopping is a safe haven. Already, racing in the 31st Annual Classic Yacht Regatta, sponsored by Panerai and presented by Land Rover, has been pushed back until Sunday, and the opening of the Irish Festival on Saturday, September 4th, has been pushed back to 2 p.m. Be sure to check with organizers (call ahead or cheak the web) if you plan on attending any scheduled events. In the meantime, happy shopping…
