Regarding doing a days shopping, it really is subjective because what id shop for others wouldnt.

It depends on ages, or sex etc.

If you're already doing vineland outlets then i'd say the Florida Mall. The outlets will stock different things but they're much of a likeness. I dont really get much from the Mall except from the department stores.

The loop for converse/Nike
Tommy outlets on 192 and international drive for tommy stuff
And the outlets tend to suffice me.

Just like the UK, malls at Christmas give a completely skewed view of them though!

We visit Florida in May, September & Christmas; we know the malls are likely to be quiet in May & September but complete bedlam at Christmas & plan accordingly.

Similar at home; at around 10th December, we say about Westfield “right, no more visits here until after New Year” as it becomes crazy after that.

I would agree with Florida Mall for a bigger choice of non designer stores though.
We just felt that the range was no better or or any cheaper than what we get at home. We’ve been a few times over the years and we’re sure it use to have more choice...could just be us being picky though.

We much prefer the Florida Mall, usually only visit the MoM for Cheesecake Factory, and Bath and Body Works, we've never bought a single thing from any other shop there. We can go to Florida Mall and go to B&BW and the Cheesecake Factory now has the new location so no need to go to MoM.

Likewise. To be honest if they ever shut down The Cheesecake Factory I know we wouldn't go to MoM
