With vast areas of shops in the down town area, and the enormous Strip Malls just outside the city limits coupled with the reputation of Miami as a fashion centre, Miami is a great place for shopaholics to go mad with their credit cards. Typically things are up to half price compared with the UK. One of the best places to go for a bargain is the Sawgrass Manufacturers Outlet in Sunrise; where there are over 220 shops selling everything that you can think of at very low prices.
With excellent weather in winter, Miami is fast becoming the preferred destination for a spot of Christmas shopping over chilly New York.
