| - AZ Mills is really worth going to only if you are: hoping to see gang members; interested in meeting a gaggle of single mothers; or really pinching your pennies.
Even though it's an outlet mall, I didn't find many "deals" here. The prices at Gap's outlet were great, but every shirt I picked up was clearly a defect. The V-neck sweaters looked nice, for example, except the Vs were all skewed and cut against the grain of the fabric. Fifty percent off a piece of crap is still too pricey.
But even if you loved the low prices, you'd still have to decide whether you want to wade through this crowd. Maybe it's the economy or just that I went at a busy time, but the mall was packed with a rather unsavory potpourri of screaming toddlers, overweight schmos with plumber's crack, semi-hardcore cholos, and mile after mile of chatty single mothers.
As others have mentioned, the bathrooms need serious attention and the crowds are prohibitive. But I suppose if you're feeling very light in the pocketbook, you could snag some pretty foxy almost-V-neck sweaters for cheap. Shop on.
