Great, another store that should be at a Outlet Mall.

This is an absolutely astonishing comment. $68 candles belong in an outlet mall? Y'all really do not get the luxury business at all.

Well, I know I don't. A $68 candle? Really? Is that made up or real?

If you are really shopping luxury good, Bergdorf Goodman has candles well into the hundreds... But Disney Springs is not really aimed at the Luxury market... They also should not be aimed at "Your local nice mall" stores... Disney shopping should be special...not the usual...

Is the the special nice mall or a special Luxury Market?
IMO, any store in DS should be aimed at middle-class families. All I know is that I don't think I'm allowed in a store that sells $68 candles!

Special doesn't have to mean luxury...and the term "Luxury" is subjective... I would not call Ulta Cosmetic or Tommy Bahama "Luxury Stores" though I suppose some peole would because they are more expensive than Target/WalMart type stores... Disney Springs should be unique shopping and dining... places you could not go otherwise...
Blaze Pizza and Chicken Guy... too known and commercial... Should be original shops and restaurants...or at the least, tiny chains that are unique and special in their own right...Like Gideons Bakehouse or perhaps Sprinkles Cupcakes... That is what made shopping at Lake Buena Vista special... If all the stores are The Gap, Anthropoligie, Pandora, Coach, Ulta...these are all stores I could go to within a 20 minute drive...way less crowded and probably a little less money. Entertainment Shopping (Which is what this is) should be special and unique... Not the same shops from you home town...

They've definitely been successful with the direction of DS. As other retail centers are struggling to stay relevant, DS is kicking out under-performing vendors. Sounds successful to me, regardless of what I think of the stores that exist.

Whoever would pay that much for a candle is an idiot.
