Lake Buena Vista Outlet - Bargain Shopping

Lake Buena Vista Outlet is not one of the main shopping destinations for tourists, but we would heartily recommend a visit. It’s not as fancy as the more upmarket premium outlet places on Vineland road and the top of International drive, but t...

Substantial savings at T J Maxx

I am a fan of T. K. Maxx in England and over the last few years there have been many stores opened in the Orlando area. Over here, for some reason I was unable to establish, they are called T. J. Maxx. These stores sell overstocks and last season...

KMart versus Target.

It is a shame about the current state of K Mart. This was one of the few stores around when we visited 30 years ago but they look shabby and unloved these days. Recently, I decided to pop in after many years' absence and honestly, they have a good ra...
