    Clothes are definitely cheaper in the US. At Reebok you get the 3rd trainer free when you buy 3 or the 2nd at half price when you buy 2. Nike also do good deals depending on which part of the year you go.

    Premium Outlets is on Vineland Ave which is to the South of International Drive. In fact we just followed the I Drive south and found it. You can see it from the I4, it is next to Dollys Dixieland Thingymajig.
    Stores I can remember are Nike ($6.99 a T-shirt), Timberland, Osh Kosh (with a mens section ), DKNY, Tommy Hilfiger, Levis, Disney Warehouse, French Connection, Versace, Oilily, The Fudgery (mmmm fudge), Stride Rite (US version of Start Rite), Burberry, Aramani. They had loads more sports stores, kids stores, sunglass stores.

    It was very nice to wander around and was a little nicer than Belz.

    The Lake Buenavista Outlet Malls in Kissimmee (highway 535) have a very good Gap and Old Navy store too and saves the trek up International Drive [msnsmile]

    Hi

    I agree with the above Beltz does have a good Gap Store, they also have a large Old Navy aswell.

    It's not always that clothes are cheaper but often they are different to what you see day in day out in the usual high streets stores. It's got to the stage now where most high streets have the same mix of chain stores and it's nice to see an alternative, that's my excuse for spending hours shopping on holiday and if anyone tells my hubby any different woebetide them.

    That's what I got in December. Fantastic deal.
    Good thing is because they are made for skateboarding they last for ages and are really comfy. Great for walking around the parks.

    I'll end up like the Imelda Marcos of Vans trainers at this rate. 2 more pairs in April and 2 more in November

    If you need children's clothes Lake buena Vista Outlet Mall is our favourite as the Oshkosh B'Gosh is very good value. Oshkosh clothes are really good buys, as they last. Oshkosh also had a range of women's and men's clothing last time we visited a Christmas but not a huge selection but very good quality gear.

    As John has pointed out there are also a GAP and Old Navy outlets.

    Also don't discount Target, I bought an Isaac Mizrahi jacket it was in the sale but only cost $12.

    Happy shopping

    Have a friend who has just had a baby and loves the Osh Kosh baby clothes, so we spent a fortune in the shop at the Premium Oulets. Now everytime we go she is going to be giving us a list!!![msnsmile2]
