Especially since we weren't going to go as often as we would have liked to.

So, for $40 we joined Sam's Club. They had a promotion where you got $40 off your order so, in effect, it was free. They have a good enough selection of goods and services and they're right down the road.

I have emailed Costco to advise them of the huge market they're ignoring in this fastest growing area of Central Florida. Maybe if enough people do so?
Been a satisfied member at Sam's for years here in VA...just renewed membership as we will be hopping down to TV by the end of the year (FROGS at last). Emailed Trader Joe's this morning to let them know about the huge market in Central Florida.
