As much as we love shopping, nothing is better than shopping and knowing you’re scoring a fabulous deal. If you’re all about major savings, then outlet malls are the place to be. However, in recent months, we’ve been unable to take part in our favourite pastime due to COVID-19 but now that retail businesses with street entrances are allowed to reopen, we can finally snag some socially distanced deals.

Toronto Premium Outlets, located in Halton Hills, has reopened its doors to the public as of May 22 after being closed since March 19.

In accordance with local health officials, the outlet mall has outlined major Safety And Health Precautions that shoppers will have to comply with.
