I agree with the list except for Las Vegas. I think it should be under Boston.

Really?? Why do you think that?? I think Vegas is a lot more renowned for its shopping than Boston.

Las Vegas has WAY more shopping than Boston does. Have you been to both? Las vegas is a haven for shopping with the strip and hotels.

I don't know if this is the sort of thing that can be determined that easily. I mean I'm from Orlando, we have every upscale store you can imagine from Bloomingdales to Tiffany. We have many areas with unique Boutiques for fashion and culture just like these other larger cities. Plus we have the absolue highest amount of outlet malls down by the attractions including Bass Pro to Neiman Marcus. In most of these cities I'm sure good shopping is available, in Orlando, it's a damn sure bet!

There's high-end stores in each hotel on the strip, and some off the strip. Don't jump to conclusions until you actually visit there.

This is just the Bellagio hotel!!--

Armani, Dior, Chanel, Fendi, Gucci, Hermes, Tiffanys, Bottega Veneta, Fred Leighton, Prada, and Yves Saint Laurent.

Naples area has more high-end stores, but it's still not top in the country.

Only you are finding this boring...we all find it boring that you started another fight on CD

If you want to look at it a different way, no one in Europe cares about NY shopping

Anyways I say LA has the top shopping in America, but any one of the 10 major cosmo cities in America (NY, LA, Chicago, Houston, Dallas, Atlanta, SF, DC, Boston and Miami) is going to have the full aray of upscale shopping options
