akruz Posted February 9, 2012 #1 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Have 3 days in Fort Lauderdale, and I am still in recovery from surgery. We leave on Apr 7 for our 14 day cruise. I was hoping I could spend a half day shopping in FLL. the other days I want to use water taxi and see the sights surrounding the water taxi. Can you suggest a place that sells sundresses, nice pant suit for formal night, etc. We will have no car so will have to taxi. It will be late for me to shop for clothes for a cruise trip! I posted initially in "ask a question" I think that is the wrong section so am posting here. Few places online "ship" to Canada. I wish Kohls did and I hate paying the duty. thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted February 9, 2012 #2 Share Posted February 9, 2012 You can "google" maps of Ft. Laud....find out where things are in relation to your hotel. Since you are there for 3 days, I'd consider renting a car....it will be cheaper in the end than cabs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

two4me Posted February 10, 2012 #4 Share Posted February 10, 2012 When we go to FL for cruise we stay at the hilton garden inn and across the street is a strip mall with a ross, micheals etc, but must admit I love Ross pricing. Again depends where you are staying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailor_Sally Posted February 10, 2012 #5 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Go to Beall's ! It is the Florida store and is always loaded with cruise wear . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowbirds2 Posted February 10, 2012 #6 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Thanks for the heads up on that! I noticed there is a Bealls Outlet store in the Southlands Shopping Mall within walking distance of the hotel we are staying in pre cruise. Hope I can find some cruise wear there! A friend also mentioned Sawgrass Mills but I think that's further away? ITA akruz- hard to find thing in Canada this time of year and not a lot on line! But I did have some success on the Canadian Old Navy site - got free shipping and a discount too. You could check there depending on your style preferences. Found a nice sundress on the Sears.ca site too. Both places have return policies. Hope you have a speedy recovery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akruz Posted February 10, 2012 Author #7 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Thanks to all who replies wow the info is great......thank you. Bealls where could I find that as we are staying on 17st in FLL. The Embassy suites. The other places mentioned too would be easy for my friend and I to shop at due to no car.

mzwaag Posted February 10, 2012 #9 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Beall's outlet is not as good as Beall's! Beall's is a great store!!!! Wish we had on in Michigan. I order from them online and have never been sorry with what I ordered.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
