Generally the outlet malls offer very good prices but the Brand products are knock-offs. For instance, Polo, RL. Bostonian and all the rest of the well known brands are imported from 'exploited'countries.
I bought some golf shirts that did not make it through the first wash...!
Have a great time.

My god yes!! I always have to buy an extra case wether I a take a full one or not!!! Its ridiculous! I went to Orlando this June for two weeks and am pregnant so bought a ridiculous amount of baby clothes! but it was less than half the price of things here!!! And such good quality! I go every year and every year I just buy buy buy! My other half hates shopping here but loves it over there because u dont get ripped off! This time he bough two pairs of Levi jeans for £30! And a gorgeous pair of gap jeans on sale at the outlet for £11!!! Could not believe it! His whole wardrobe is american now and mine is almost too! The outlets are amazing! U dont say where u're going in Florida but if its Orlando u must got to the new shoping outlet at Lake Buena Vista! Its fab! Got great designers and totally cheap! There is also the prime outlets at the top of I-Drive.
Definately do not take a full case, u will regret it! I always end up leaving old clothes there because I just buy so much new!!! And the last twice we have still had to buy a new case!!! But my fiance did decided he wanted to buy a lrge tigger, pooh, eeyore and mickey for our babies nursery which took up quite a lot of space I tell u!!! I dont think we'll ever learn!
My favourite shops over in the U.S are definately... Gap, Tommy Hilfiger, Aeropostale, Abercrombie and Fitch, Timberland, Levi and Careters for kids stuff!! All of the above are half as cheap over there than here! U will not be disapointed!
Have fun! I'm so jealous!! Not going back til 2009 and am getting withdrawal symptoms already!!!!!!

Almost everything is cheaper at the moment because of the exchange rate. Nike Dunks are about £25 and are like gold dust in the UK. I tried to get them on ebay for my 14 year old girl and eventually had to send to USA for them. I dont know why you cant get them here. All her friends are after some. I found perfume as expensive there as it is here. It is really cheap to eat out and a take away for one from Red Lobster feeds at least 2

Well, since I don't live in the UK (but my brother does now) I can't tell you the price differences but this time of year you will still be getting hot and muggy temperatures. My daughter lives in the panhandle of Florida and my other one lives in Georgia, only 6 hours from her. Both states today are in the 90's and really muggy. I've visited Florida in the dead of winter down there and it is still good sometimes for light weight slacks and no jackets. There are sometimes usually after mid December to February that it can be chilly for jackets on occasions.

Basically everything, especially when you factor in the 2US$ to £1. I don't know whereabouts in Florida you are going, but if it is Orlanda, there are loads of Outlet stores, you can't miss them really. Wall Mart is a good bet as well. We got toys, nintendo games etc there, all half UK price.
Hope you enoy the hol!

we buy a lot of clothes when we go they are cheaper,heres a tip what we do,we put all our clothes we are taking into one suitcase,they usually fit,cause you don't need jumpers etc,then split them in to 2 cases so we know we will have enough room to put the clothes we buy in our cases for going home
have a nice stay

all cloths are very much cheaper timberland shoes and boot are half price,but remember if you go to the designer outlets you are buying last years fashions i find the best place to shop are j c Penny's, sears, or anywhere in the malls and if you go in September the sales are great.
