LOCAL Shopping Malls

We are visiting Las Vegas from the UK and want to spend a day shopping at a Mall WHERE the locals shop - not tourist boutiques etc.

Anyone have a recommendation - anyone live in Vegas want to recommend a location or Mall - will have a ';Rental'; car so travel not a problem

LOCAL Shopping Malls

Here are the local malls:

This one is very large and is on the strip next to TI:

This one is farther out near Sunset Station casino. It is also nice:

Then you have the 3 outlet malls:

I think this one is the best:

Las Vegas Premium Outlets 875 S. Grand Central Pkwy, I-15 exit 41B, Charleston Blvd.

This one is a few miles from Mandalay Bay-

Las Vegas Outlet Center 7400 Las Vegas Blvd.

This one is about 45 minutes from the strip and I wouldn%26#39;t recommend going just for the shops:

Fashion Outlets of Las Vegas- Primm

If you want specific stand-alone shops- K Mart, Walmart, Targets, etc. you are going to have to go to a strip mall(this does not mean it is on the strip. - it is bunch of stores next to each other that have a common parking lot). LV has to be strip mall heaven- there is one, two, or more malls on just about every street, intersection, etc. once you get off the strip.

LOCAL Shopping Malls

I am not a local but for many years I spent many months per year in Vegas so I do know the shopping malls. I have been to all of the above malls.
