Shopping in Detroit

For the flash, the only truly authentic thing to bring home from Detroit would be a car. The rest of us will have to make do with the myriad malls that line Detroit's street. The majority of the best malls tend to be in the suburbs, like the Fairlane Tower Centre, 18900 Michigan Ave, which has all the big names like Sears and JC Penney. Downtown, the Renaissance Center has a number of high quality shops.

Opening hours:

Shops are usually open Monday to Saturday 1000-2100, and Sunday 1200-1800.

Tax information:

Michigan charges a 6% sales tax that isn't refunded on purchases.
