Depends what you want. Yours is a popular question. In the FAQ ';sticky'; at the top of this forum is a typical debate:

BUT, IS WOODBURY COMMON BETTER THAN JERSEY GARDENS?

Try typing, ';woodbury vs. Jersey gardens'; or ';which is better jersey gardens'; in the search box for more info. You can sort by date.

I%26#39;ve been to both and have enjoyed them very much! Deciding on which one to go really depends on what you%26#39;re looking for. Woodbury has more designer labels and if you happen to be there when the stores have sale on, you easily find bargains in stores like Tod%26#39;s, Burberry etc. Check the Woodbury web site for store listing + info for sales and other special events, and when you register as VIP guest, you%26#39;ll get discount coupons that sometimes are of better value than the ones in the booklet you get with your bus ticket.

If you%26#39;re more looking for kind of ';everyday'; brands like Tommy, Gap, Nike Jersey Gardens has them all. I went there last December and shopped a lot - basic everyday clothes and sports gear. JG is an inside mall where as in Woodbury you need to walk outside - so in case the weather is bad, JG is more convenient. In addition, the trip to JG is shorter and much cheaper than to Woodbury. I%26#39;d also recommend checking the off-discounters like Century 21, Filene%26#39;s Basement, Loehmann%26#39;s at Manhattan. I%26#39;ve learnt that sometimes they have pretty much similar stuff as the outlets.

Regarding prices I could%26#39;n really see any differences between JG and Woodbury - can%26#39;t remember whether the tax was different.

Thanks very much for the advice.We will probley go to jersey gardens. For our short trip i think jersey gardens will be the better one. We are just really looking for Gap, Tommy, nike ect.

thanx

I just wanted to let you know there are a ton of sales everywhere in manhattan right now. I was just there last month I got a anne kline coat for 140.00 that retailed for 400.00 we bought a ton of things i had to have some of it shipped home. I plan on going back again next Feb.Have fun on your trip

We too are trying to decide on which outlet mall to visit. One major deciding factor for me is how easy/hard it is to get to. We are a group of 9 women, so a cab is not an option. We are staying near Times Square.

I know there are daily excursions offered by grayline from The Port Authority Bus Terminal to Woodbury which ranges between $32-$40 pp. What about Jersey Gardens, is there an easy way to get there without having to change trains/ busses etc??...How long is the trip??? What are the fares? ....Thanks

It is qute easy to get to jersey gardens from Port authoity.Not sure about price, but it is cheaper than woodbury common.

Thanks.....We may consider JG then, as WC is quite a distance.We only have a few days so if we can accomplish the same thing in 1/2 day at JG as opposed to a full day at WC, then JG it is!! As long as we do not have to make connections with busses or trains etc to get there we will be fine. I do not want to get lost in the big city.

The bus takes you right there, and drops you off outside the main entrance. I have just checked the opening times, it is open 10am-9pm, We are thinkin of goin the day we fly in, and getting the shopping out the way. That will give us 5 days to do sight seeing.

Jersey Gardens is close enough (and much smaller in scale than Woodbury Common) that it%26#39;s do-able as an evening activity. Eat a late lunch and arrive there in late afternoon. Take a look at the website to help you decide which stores seem most appealing [Cohoe%26#39;s -- one of the ';anchor'; stores upstairs, right to your left when you come through the main entrance -- isn%26#39;t well-known but worth a stop imo] so you have an ';attack plan'; :-)
