There may have been some truth to that in the past (exaggerated as it may be), but it's hardly true any more, and it will be even less true moving forward. There's a retail explosion happening in this town right now.
People who go to Syracuse from Ottawa go for bargains primarily, for Macy's second, and for outlet shopping third (maybe swap 2-3). Although, with Tanger outlets opening soon, the Syracuse outlets may become obsolete. Heck, with Nordstrom and Simons coming online soon, the Macy's run may become less appealing, too.
Of course, all of this is contigent on pricing discrepancies.
