Shopping in America

[PigSoldier]

When I'm at WDW (in 2 weeks, yayy!!!), I want to do some serious clothes shopping. Everything's so much cheaper in America, so I've been saving for about a year .

The only problem is, I've got no idea about American shops. There are so many, and I don't know what any of them sell. I'll probably end up in Laura Asley or something, ignorantly looking for a pair of jeans .

So.......where do all of you buy your clothes? I've already learnt that Abercrombie and Fitch (hope I got that right) is where most people go, but any other recommendations?

I like to shop at American Eagle, American Outpost, and Abercrombie and Fitch (sometimes). There is also a store called Gadzooks, and it sells funny print shirts ("Just Be Glad I Am Not Your Kid", "I See Dumb People"), and many people shop there, at least at my school. There is also a store called Old Navy and they sell some cool clothes too!

Well, this is my kinda thread. Shopping is my middle name.

What are you looking for? Casual, Business Casual, Business?

What parts of US are you headed for? Mall of America? New England?

Have you looked into outlet shopping?

Near WDW there are a few outlets (CM's can tell you more, if interested). There's a premium that carries Polo, Hilfiger, Nautica, Nike, Estee Lauder, etc. There's Belz which has discounted Disney Goods and Universal Studios stuff.

I like department stores like Nordstrom, Lord & Taylor, Filene's and Macy's! Alot of selection in a selected area. You can find merchandise for about 60%, currently! Just found a pair of Jones of NY (great brand) of white linen pants, lined. Original price, $82, I bought for $12.65.

I spent $123 last week and got my whole WDW wardrobe for November trip!

You can email me if you would like specific places to find exceptional quality at low prices.....

Living in California, I actually don't shop at Abercrombie and Fitch that much. But if you are going to be at WDW, I recommend you go to Pointe*Orlando, which is a shopping complex in Orlando, obviously. There is an Abercrombie and Fitch there, as well as a Gap, Tommy Hilfiger, Express, and Denim Place. I love Express, it has everything from jeans to clothes for more formal occasions. Denim Place has jeans. (Lots of jeans!) If you can find a Contempo Casuals or Wet Seal (I don't know if they have them in Orlando) try and go there too! Plus, Macys and Nordstroms are wonderful as well.

If you're coming in from Orlando International, theres a outlet place on the way to WDW. Theres a Nike outlet, Banana Republic outlet, and a few others. I've never been in them before, but I would want to go in the Nike one, but Laura Jean said something about them. Um, I usually don't go shopping (because I hate too), but I usually get my clothes from Macy's and Sears and JC Penney's, and stores like that. There are also Kohls stores around, and I get some clothes from them. Lola, I remember from the few times I'm in the mall (hehehe) that she got some pairs of pants from WetSeal, 579, but I think one of them went under. Delias is exspensive, and I think so is Joyce Leslie. Um, oh, theres this place in NJ (I don't know if they're anywhere else) but it's called the DEB shop. They have pretty nice clothes there.

I know that probably didn't help you, but that was the best I could do

I usually shop at hollister, American Eagle, Old Navy, and sometimes Abercrombie and Fitch. Lately i've been shopping at Aeropostale, which is a lot like American Eagle but most of the stuff is cheaper. As far as jeans I usually go to a department store and get Mudd or L.E.I. jeans. Um... places like DEB and Wet Seal are good too. Depending on what you like to wear you might want to check out Pacific Sunwear and Gadzooks too.

 

[WDWfanatic288]

umm...lets see..I shop where evere there are clothes I like.
I mostly shop at-
Abercrombie and Fitch
American Eagle
Old Navy
GAP(mostly for jeans though)
Wet Seal
Express
Mervyns
Foleys
Dillards

I woudl recommend going to the outlet malls and going from like store to store looking for clothes...b/c you never know what good clothes you can find in a store until you look.

Wow, thanks so much everyone.
I'm going to have to write all of these downrolleyes: ), and look out for them when I go.
I'll probably go to the Florida Mall and all the Belz outlets.
