Hi,

Does anyone know where the biggest "old navy" store is in orlando area?, i want to stock up on my kids clothes while im there, as they`re such good value and they dont ship to the uk.

Thanks!!:D

Hi Ruby,

There is a very big one at the Lake Buena Vista Factory Stores. The rest of the outlet is pretty rubbish though, apart from Gap and Osh Kosh :)

Yes, there is a huge one at Lake Buena Vista Outlets. Paula, I was just over there the other day. They've added some really nice new stores (albeit small ones) and the whole place was having a sale! There is a new Disney Outlet coming also. It will be at the same end as Old Navy. Liz Clairborne (is that her name??) has an outlet there, as well as Carter's for children (huge sale going on there!) and a couple of other stores that I've always been pretty lucky in.

As far as outlets go, this is a small series of shops, but for some reason, I like it. (As much as I can like any outlet, not being much for shopping). :blush:

:woohoo: :clap: :cartwheel

The other one (on the same row as Gap) was always almost empty when we went. A lot of the small units were empty in October. I got Lois a lot of themed party stuff at a store there one year (paper something?! :unsure: ) and when I went back last year it had closed. :( I like the Osh Kosh there though because it's not so busy and is well stocked. I stock up on schoolwear for the girls there because it's so much cheaper than here. I love looking at a ticket and then knocking 70% off! :D

Yes, that has been the way with that outlet. Shops don't seem to last too long. There used to be a wonderful Herve Bernard (sorry, my keyboard won't cooperate with accent marks :( ) shop there. Then suddenly, it was gone. Many nice shops through the years have disappeared. There used to be a wonderful Totes store there too. And a book store. Well, you get the idea.

I'm hoping the Disney outlet that is coming is better than the character corner that is there now. That place is nothing more than a warehouse for unsold product control merchandise. :( Pah.

Ruby,

I think I'm right in saying there is a big Old Navy store in the Florida Mall, I'm pretty sure I remember it being 2 storey.

is this the mall next to I4 (or am i thinking of the premium outlets) if your travelling towards miami its on the left and you pass a golden corral as you drive up to the LBV outlet?

Sounds like the stores around here--outlet or regular! Almost have to call to be sure 1) that they're still in business and 2) where they are located! The area is growing so fast that stores come and go in less than a year. Some relocate to newer shopping centers, others go out of business completely. :shrug:

Quite frustrating!
