If sale racks are your favorite part of shopping, think of UAL as one giant sale rack. Short for United Amalgamated Liquidators, it’s a small Southern chain that culls unsold items from sales and store closings, then offers them at perversely reasonable prices. Of course, “reasonable” is relative, since brands represented include Chloé, Prada, Mark Jacobs and Jimmy Choo. But a $500 vintage Dior fur coat or a $7,000 dress marked down to $700 can be fun to admire. And if your budget is more attuned to the Gap than Dolce & Gabbana, they have a lot to fit it. While an atmosphere of bubbly feminine enthusiasm prevails in this warehouse-like environs, they also have stuff for men and kids. Emily Bartlett Hines
