Banner Mercantile at all of the squares if you are looking for The Villages logo items.

If you are looking for "The Villages" type souvenirs, try Banner Mercantile located in Sumter Landing and /or Brownwood town squares.

And all of the local Walgreens have TV t-shirts and hats.

I'm not so sure--the last time we looked they had none--the same thing with the Flea Market at Marion. My guess is that The Villages exercised its extensive influence to limit the use of its brand to itself only.

I found the same thing. My sister-in-law was looking for some stuff a few weeks ago to take home to Calgary and I was surprised to find almost nothing in Walgreen's or CVS. We did find a kiosk in Wal-Mart with quite a bit of small stuff. No t-shirts however.

Doesn't Gucci, Nike, Coke, college and professional sports teams, etc etc etc protect their brand also ???

I agree, Banner Mercantile is great.
Walmart on CR466 often has Villages t-shirts, hats, etc. for quite a bit less.
