What location has the best Spirit Halloween store in Central Florida or are they all pretty much the same?

Some variation year to year, but anywhere along I-Drive tends to be good, one near the Loop tends to be smaller. Oviedo Mall one opened earlier, ad there's tons of space there, so may be one of the better ones.
 
The one at Oviedo Mall is HUGE and since it was the first to set up so most likely it is the "district" store which serves as a model for the others in the area.

I was just at the location at The Loop and they were pretty well stocked and setup despite being open so early. There are still a bunch of animatronics that haven't been setup in the main display, but it was coming along.

Looking forward to the Regency Village location and OBT locations opening soon since I live between them all.

The Oviedo one last year definitely had a big footprint taking over Sears. It's nearby and we go to District often so I would stop in fairly frequently, about half-way thru it felt a little empty and only a few weeks after open most the AA's and props were non functional... of course that could just be because they are made so cheaply now

It felt like last year they were light on merchandise at all locations (supply chain issue?), but so far it looks like the one we went to at The Loop seemed to have quite a bit of stuff sooner than they did at this time last year. But last year seemed like all retailers were ordering bare minimum for Halloween and Christmas out of caution or just stuff not being available. I was really a case of you had to buy stuff when you saw it because if you came back it would be gone.
