Once you get to Publix lot it is a struggle for the next two hours to get a spot and to get in and out. Add to the fact that is it basically unsafe to shop there even if only from a fire egress point of view. I wonder how much over the legal limit they are for fire code?
If we are making a "south Villages" wish list I would like a Trader Joes and a Walmart or a Target superstore. A Wendy would be nice as well as some decent restaurants. When I moved here they never mentioned we would be the ******* step children for so long. In 2009 they said retail was coming to 466a. I guess they meant the tire store since that is the only new place I can think of. We are on our knees down here.  Oh yeah, put Costco on that list. |
Not sure if this is supposed to be a joke or that you are serious. It takes a "whole" 8 minutes to get to the store! If you can get to 441 Publix in 20 and 466a in 8, I figure you can get to 466 in 10. But seriously, that takes too long?????? Your retired for goodness sakes! Maybe they will build an eatery, grocery store, movie theater, dr.'s office and a dentist at your mail slot!!!!!
Geez, I'm still working and am never in that big of a hurry.....
