I love the bleached desert landscape on the drive up to Las Vegas, a trip I make every few months to check out what’s new -- and there’s always something. On the way, I usually make one stop, at Primm -- not to gamble, but to browse at the Williams-Sonoma outlet store. I once picked up a reconditioned four-slot chrome Dualit toaster (normally more than $300) for $79 and have been happily making toast on it ever since. I also found a greatly discounted Staub cast iron mussel pot, and another time a heavy Mauviel roasting pan for the Thanksgiving turkey. Over the weekend, I took a quick look around, turned up some black rectangular charcoal chimney starters from BBQ maven and author Steven Raichlen, originally $34, discounted to $12. Nary a peek in the mall’s purported 100 other stores and I’m gone, heading straight for those raucous neon lights and the next new restaurant in Vegas.

Williams-Sonoma Marketplace, Fashion Outlets of Las Vegas, 32100 S. Las Vegas Blvd. (I-15 at Exit 1), Primm, Nevada; (702) 874-1400. Open 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily.
