Where do you start? Well, it depends what you are after...
Designer Clothes
A good place to start is at one of the many Factory Outlet Malls such as
the Belz outlet at the top of International Drive in Orlando. You will get a
discount, but it may not be huge. The area around the Belz is also good for
photographic equipment, golf stuff, and diamonds!
General Shopping
There are lots of malls such as the Florida Mall at the junction of Sandlake Road
and Orange Blossom Trail, also in Orlando. This is a super mall with four department
stores and hundreds of smaller shops.
The department stores are very good for children's
clothes, and check out the prom dresses if your daughter is have a school leaving ball -
great prices and she will be unique!
These sorts of malls usually have lots of jewellery stores and often have great
"loss leaders" to tempt you into the store. They also have food courts where you can pick
up a bite to eat.
Shoes
If you are after bargains and they don't have to be a "designer label", try places like
Payless Shoes. These are situated all over, especially in smaller mall or outlets.
We have always managed to pick up bargains here. Leather trainers can be had for $20
(£13.50) or less. Wear an old pair for the journey over, discard them there
and wear the new ones home!
