Peachwave Yogurt
 

Last night my wife and I went to Peachwave Yogurt. I think that I was talking to the owners wife. I mentioned to her that I was glad that they were now open until 9:30 and possibly in the winter they would stay open until 10. She told me that she had to get permission from TV to remain open until 9:30. I guess TV has the right to dictate the hours of operations for various stores in TV. :cus:

If they own the property (and they do) they call the shots....

That appears to be the case in TV. Certainly not everywhere.

Bluedog,

I think it happens in many places. It is why Chick-fil-A is in so few malls - because the leases stipulate opening on Sunday.

If you sign a lease to be open from x - y - that is when you are open. As owners of that Plaza, TV may want to control how long to light it, how much traffic at a certain hour, etc.

I'm not saying I agree with this as a consumer, but landlords have rights, too.

It happens but usually we have more trouble getting stores to stay open the full specified hours, much like the Chick-fil-A example you give. Doesn't have much to do with "landlord rights" but with what's stated in the lease.

Hi Blue Dog,

I agree - I think I chose my term incorrectly when I said landlords have rights. I meant via the lease. Thanks for clarifying.

Experience
 

Having owned a retail business which had one store in a "Shopping Center",
the lease for that store required hours of operation to make certain that all stores operated on the same schedule.

It is a common practice for Malls and Shopping Centers!

Our "on the main street" store had no such restriction in that lease!

And a great store it was! I think there is about 10 pounds around my midsection dedicated to that shop!

Stopped at Peachwave this past Saturday during a rainstorm. Delicious. I'm sure there were no calories in the coffee yogurt I ate. There aren't any calories in food consumed while in TV are there???

There are absolutely no calories in the yogurt....none...it's the toppings....:D

The stuff is great, isn't it! :mmmm:

You work the calories off riding around all over TV in the golf cart, right? :thumbup: That's the way Sandy and I look at it!!!! :1rotfl:

Bill :)

You betcha! Hay I've used almost 1/2 tank of gas in the golf cart so far. I have one more day to use the rest of the gas before I go back to Chicago. If I drive from Chatham to Peachwave 2 or 3 times on Wednesday in the cart that should about do it.

Have some for us
 

We are on LI for the summer and miss Peachwave/High Five-- can't wait to be back in the bubble.
