Finally a McDonalds
 

I'm not a fastfood fanatic but there are times I'm in a hurry and just want to pick something up. Finally south of 44 is getting a McDonalds in Magnolia Plaza as noted in today's Daily Sun. That and the gas station going in on Warm Springs and 301 will be well accepted. Maybe this is the start of long awaited commercial development beyond the plaza itself.

There will be Villagers lining up hours before the official opening with the promise of free straws and napkins for the first 100 customers.

and Egg McMuffins!!!:a040:

Where else in the world can a new McD Opening make the front page of the "news"paper? This is what The Villages is all about!

WooHoo! Filet of Fish sandwich on Fridays!

Don't leave out the forks & spoons..

:clap2: Will be taking the bride out for "Surf&Turf"..... Filet of Fish & BigMac. :mmmm:

Ah, the Big Mac---> Two All Beef Patties, Special Sauce, Lettuce, Cheese, Pickles, Onions, on a sesame seed bun....

A McDonalds within a Golf Cart ride.
WOW
There is a god!
Thank You Jesus.......:bigbow::bigbow::bigbow::bigbow::bigbo w:

Paired with delicately salted hand-crafted frites and thick, artisanal frozen dairy confection for dessert.

Actually it's a "Filet O' Fishlike Substance" :D I do like their "McRiblike" sandwich and their "Quarter Pound of Salt" burger. :)

Congrats to all you southerners finally getting some high class national chain eating establishments! Hopefully they expand the ambulance service to take it into consideration.

:1rotfl:
Just funnin' y'all .....

Is there anything resembling ice cream in that frozen thing?

That's why they (as well as Dairy Queen and many others) do not (and cannot legally) call it ice cream.

Best coffee on the planet and priced right! Congratulations South Villages!

Ha! You northern Villagers soon will have nothing on us southern Villagers; new Publix, new McDonald’s, new golf courses, new bbq restaurant, new, new, new everything; note the key word is NEW, unlike old dated places up north.

We don't need new. We already have the best.

Mc Donald's is that the best the developer can come up with Really!
Put in a juke box call it new town square

I'm sure the Developer leases to anyone who can pay the rent and stay in business. McDonalds can certainly do both.

Better than food trucks.

OH STOP.

I love McDonalds. Both of our kids worked at the one in West Chester, Ohio, Gretchen as her first employment after school, and Helene as her life long employment. The one there was family owned and very clean. The kids told of having to remove gum under the table and scrub under the table and lysol everything if you got the closing shift.

I have fond memories of not having much dough when we first had a family and one car, and we would go grocery shopping and dinner was at McDonalds and the kids got a toy prize.

AND I'm a gonna tell you once again, before I call in my cousin Vinnie, that the developer will build the buildings and bank the rent when a company wants to build a suitable place. They like people renting their buildings they build. They know like I do that this place is not positioned to support the high prices of the la-de-da restaurants Easterners like to BRAG about. It isn't that lots don't have the bucks, but they are very careful with their money. THAT is how they got here.

My favorite is a quarter pounder with cheese mmmmmmm.

But us northerners have a Sams and soon to be a new BJ's. :bigbow:

It's only new for the first day. A used car salesman once told me:

"Drive a used car, everyone does."

But there is Wolfgang Pucks, Chop House, Blue Fin for those that do like some la-de-da places to eat....and the good news is they are usually full which means there is a demand and it is growing. I agree that we are all careful with our money, but being careful doesn't exclude some of the nicer things in life unless you are trying to save it to give it away when you die.

The South Shall Rise Again !

Now where have I heard that before?:icon_wink:

Actually, there are some pretty damned good food trucks! I even crossed "The Great Villages Divide" (AKA CR44) a year or so ago for 45 min wait for Cousins Maine Lobster roll (fortunately I had my passport with me when I crossed 44). And if you want the best burger you gotta try FUKUBURGER (umlauts over the Ü) in Vegas Las Vegas's Best Burger | Fukuburger Food Truck and Hawaiian Marketplace

IMO quality of McDs been going down hill for 20 years, especially the buns, dry, old and taste like they were baked month go to me, especially the Big Mac. They must be shipping buns in from China? BK and toxic bell down the tubes also IMO. Just add to my list stake and shake (puck). At least IMO around here. Back when each city use to have bakery’s you would get fresh everyday. I don’t know where they are baking buns now but, it far, far away IMO.

Now days most don’t keep car long enough to change the oil, let along experience a problem :icon_wink:

Die? Nobody told me about that, was my sales rep lying?

You are correct about the Big Mac buns, they have been selling stale buns for decades, The Big Mac is my favorite and the dry flaking buns ruin it. I used to take them back when I got a stale bun but it happens so frequently I just quit buying them. I don't think they sell a lot of them.

One of our cars is a 2005 Scion xA, almost 16 years old, 65,000 miles. I hope to keep it forever. :) :) :)

2010 XD, around 66,000 miles. Bought it with 300 miles on it, it was a dealer lot car so still had a new car warranty even though it was insured as used. #1 thing I hate most about it: no arm rest. What kind of crazy is that, to manufacture a car with no arm rest? They wanted another $90 for one that clicks into the cup holder in the back. Screw that. My next car will be a Kia. Maybe some hideous color like light turquoise, tangerine, or hot pink. And I'll park it outside a different drab beige house in the southern half of the Villages every day.

...say the people who couldn't keep it up the first time around...


(no, I'm not selling Viagra)

1 out of 100 :)

I wish I had brought 2006 XB, when I when to new car show. Had late model worthless GM impala At time. I really liked all room in XB. Back when BK and McD was some what editable :)

Wish brownwood could get one

editable???:icon_wink:

Where is it going?

Where is it going?
Where did you read that? Hope so, we need some kind of fast food! Hope they will let us “eat” inside! Haven’t gone to McDonald’s because you can’t sit inside.
