[dotsie25]

Does anyone know when Wallmart is opening on Miller Rd (Colony Blvd) is opening?

Not soon enough! It seems like they are waiting for the villas to be completed.

Actually, I just looked it up. On The Villages News, May 22, 2016 it said it was due to open mid 2017.....that would mean this summer?? It doesn't appear that they are even close to being done by then, but anything is possible in The Villages!!

Don't get too excited about that Walmart. As opposed to a Super Walmart, this will be a Neighborhood Walmart.
The prices will be higher than the Super stores.
But then again, it will be good competition for Publix because either way, you be paying a higher than average price at either store.

right after they build it?????????

We had a Walmart neighborhood market 1/2 mile from our house in TN.
We found the prices to be the same as the super Walmart 5 miles from the house.

Never shopped at a neighborhood walmart. Since you have what % of a mark up is there between the two.

Is that like a sign I saw at a house on the golf course..."Free Beer..TOMORROW"

I don't know that Walmart Neighborhood stores have an across the board percentage markup which is the same for everything.
My guess is that depending upon the product, the markup will differ.

It has been a long time since I shopped at one, however, what I do remember is at the time,
I ran in for dog food because my supply was low.
It was a higher price for dog food than I paid at the Super Walmart in the same basic area (not Florida).

It will be interesting to see if the same thing holds true here.

Now that the underground work is nearing completion they can start to work on the slab. Once that's done the walls can be started. I'd expect by the way things go around here during my guess would be late October. Good for those on that side of 466A but I'll still go to Publix thanks!

[pauld315]

I hope soon because I have a couple of walls I need to buy

Great pic. I know a lot of the Bermuda grass, shown on the Escambia exec. course, is still somewhat dormant, but wow, it looks real dry from up there.
