The showrooms inside the 3-million-square-foot California Market Center represent more than 10,000 lines in all.
Also offered during Friday's sale will be on‐site complimentary hair cuts and styling from the STUDIO DNA Pop‐ up Salon as well as complimentary beverages and snacks.
The sale runs from 9am to 4pm. California Market Center is located at 110 E. 9th (9th at Main).

The other buildings on the corner of 9th/Los Angeles St. (Cooper Design, New Mart & Gerry)in the Fashion District also have sample sales on the last Friday of each month. You can get some really great deals during Sample Sales. Cooper & New Mart are really good for young hip stuff...
