I'm going to have an opportunity to stop by one of the outlet malls during my upcoming January trip. I'm staying onsite at WDW and I'm not renting a car, so I wouldn't normally leave the bubble, but I've already got a day planned at Universal. UO doesn't have its January hours up yet, but I'm guessing that once the holiday season ends they'll probably be back to shutting down by 7:00 PM, which means even if I close the park out I'll probably have a good chunk of evening left over. I can't justify an Uber just to go to the outlet, but a stop on the way back from UO? Yep, I'll do that.
Question is, which outlet? I know that Vineland is bigger, but I've heard it's also more crowded and (maybe?) more likely to be picked over. I-Drive is closer to Universal, so if there's any chance at all of doing both I have to hit it first (though realistically I don't expect to have time and energy to hit both). It'll be a Monday night, if that shifts things one way or another--and it definitely will be late in the evening, since I'm not going to sacrifice park time for the outlets.
Thoughts? And do they really have mostly the same things available?
