With the traffic situation, you can't even get there! For several years we would watch the cruisers headed back to the ship and they had no shopping bags. Our friend who owns a jewelry store on front street always said they don't make their $ from cruisers, but from the repeat business from stay over guests.
How right you are Elaine.
Scubaman, I believe you but you are way in the minority.
SXM economy will never grow if they depend on the cruisers.
We who visit our beloved island are the ones that keep the economy on SXM growing.
