UPDATE 7/14/11: After reading a Comment (thanks tiffani) about this, we called the new Burien Ross Dress for Less store (206-243-8881) and discovered that yes indeed, they will be holding a ‘soft opening’ this FRIDAY morning, July 15th at 9:30 a.m.
Originally we were told that it would open July 15th, then corrected to Saturday, July 16th, and amid all the confusion (perhaps this is a planned publicity stunt?) we have updated this post now three times.
The Grand Opening date though will be this SATURDAY, JULY 16th. A ‘soft opening’ means they are not 100% prepared, and they may close the store after only a few hours.
The new Ross Dress for Less is located at 15716 First Ave South in Burien.
The store was was granted temporary occupancy on June 30 from the City of Burien, and they’ve been in the process of loading in merchandise and training employees.
