After all, I need to purchase clothing as well as find gifts for my lady friends now and then.

Find most of them in Orlando I think

Being from Miami, I have to say apparently you've never been to South Florida.

Love the acoustic music coffeehouse idea!

If we have to have chain restaurants, how about a little upscale type of chain restaurant? How about Mesa Grill?

I'd love Macy's, I don't know why everyone acts like it's an expensive store, it's not. Coach is not expensive.

I'm being Walmarted to death. Yes, I shop online, but it's not the same.

I don't think the demographics here are as pathetic as you all like to portray them.

Have you tried Bamboo Bistro in the Target shopping center. One of our favorites.

I have eaten there a few times and it truly is no bargain!

Food is very mediocre and the coupon for the free appetizer gets you a couple of fried, greasy wontons. No happy hour at all!

I do not plan to go there again!
