Sawgrass Mills

For starters, you have to accept Sawgrass for what it is: an outlet mall. The ""designer"" stores are selling 2nds, ( slightly imperfect items), overproduced, or last years items, or even items made specifically for the outlet malls: a cheaper product, at a cheaper price. You won't find as much attention to detail in the tailoring or finish, for instance, at the tops you'll find at Banana Republic outlet vs. one of their regular stores. This isn't the case in all the stores - there are plenty of overstock and perfectly fine items to be had. You will have to hunt for them, however, and try on a lot of 'almost perfects' before you hit pay dirt. However, with diligence and a positive attitude, there are lots of great deals to be found. Pros: variety, prices, variety Cons: huge=lots of walking, often crowded, long walk to car more

Had a great evening in the mall. Great prices for true bargain hunters. My family and I ate at the Rainforest Cafe where my 6 year old daughter really enjoys the experience. Unfortunately we exited the mall on the wrong side. We weren't that familiar and everything appeared to look different under the cover of darkness. We walked around the parking lot for about 30 minutes in 50 degree temperature, my wife expecting and 6 year old daughter. I was elated to see a two security SUVs apparently hard at work chit chatting with one another. One male security officer was mimicking a basketball player as he shot a non-existent ball. I walked over and asked the female security officer and informed her that we needed assistance finding our vehicle which we told them was on the opposite side near the furniture outlet. She was quick to refuse explaining that we were a ""liability"" and could not help us. She drove away from us and I called the number on the vehicle for IPC International a security company (954)846-2322. A young man answered who subsequently radioed his supervisor. the supervisor said sorry do not give them any ride. I asked for his name and the young man asked him for permission to give out his name over the radio. The so called supervisor said do not give out any information other than the number to the mall which was automated and was deemed to be useless as i am sure he was aware of. This incident occurred on April 7 2009. We asked for help after walking around in the cold for 30 minutes at 10:15pm and again I called at 10:23pm and was very upset. Other Malls security personnel have given me assistance on the back of a golf cart which was much more unsafe. these guards would not give us any help or a ride in a crash tested SUV riding in a parking lot no faster than 15 mph! It's policies like these that really make the trip to the Sawgrass Mills not worth it because frankly you are on your own. I walked around for another 30 minutes in the coldest day of the year yet. Its a matter of time before something bad happens to a patron when innocent shoppers are sent to fend for themselves after seeking assistance. Hopefully someone can do something about this! Pros: Cheap Cons: Horrible Parking lots and even worse security more

Sawgrass mills is a giant, expansive, misleading, waste of time. Yes, it has many designer outlets. Yes, brand name and designer items are on sale for a fraction of the price. The thing, though, is that there is a good reason the things are so cheap. Many of the clothes that you will find will be factory defects or have measurements/cuts not suitable for a normal person. Some cheap Rock and Republic jeans that are made to fit the Jolly Green Giant do not justify the discount. It would appear as though this entire mall is a monument to the misguided concept that it doesnt matter if it looks bad and doesnt fit, if it has a designer's name on it, its worth it. I spent 6 and a half hours at this mall insisting that I had to leave with just one thing to justify the one hour drive from Miami. I was unable to justify the purchase of one item of clothing. Pros: Lots of variety Cons: Everything is on sale because its has defects or unwearable measurements, the salespeople are almost all retarded, located in the middle of nowhere more

The shopes are great but the restrooms... cleanless, the odor is disgusting. If the management have the average of people visiting the Mall, they should take care of the bathrooms. Also, they need to increase the security, to many teens hanging around and lack of security. Pros: Good location, Variety of shops, Average prices Cons: Cleanless, Not enough parking, parking elevator brok more
