I don't like gambling. I'm more of a "I know where my money is going and I'm getting something of value back". So while some of my friends went to donate money to the casinos, me and some friends went to shop.
The stores are moderate level stores - in terms in pricing. I see stores like H&M, ABC Store (I buy my water here - No CRV!), Lola's (LOVED that boutique), Sephora, Urban Outfitters, Bakers, Aldo, etc... and some high level stores: Betsy Johnson, BCBG, Guess, etc. So it was a good amount of stuff.
The strategic thing too for Planet Hollywood and Miracle Mile is that you need to talk through the mall to get to the casino from the parking structure. SMART.
The food selection kinda sucks. We walked around for what to eat and eh, the reviews were not fantastic for the shops in here.
Overall... this is a great place for someone who hates gambling... but if you want hardcore shopping - go to the outlets.
