To get a free mug and first in the store? For a WalMart?
I agree.


A lot of people reading that, who are unaware of what TV is and offers, would have no other recourse but to deduce...that there's nothing else to do here. :oops:


Simply amazing. :ohdear:

:agree: It is amazing. But you could also think (like I do) that Villagers are as a group some very cheap people. I came to that conclusion nearly 14 years ago.:shrug:

I do just that and also use the shell card when I don't have the Publix Card

My first clue that you are correct, was when we rented for the first time about 8 years ago and I heard a guy going out the door from the pro shop grumbling about how Palmer charges more for green fees ($5 I think it was?)...than the other championship courses.

He was still grumbling, as he drove to the starter...in his $20K Yesteryear cart. :oops:

If he spent $20,000 on a cart, he would need to save on golf. lol

I would take book that residents with this same personality will go to a village restaurant during "happy hour" spend $20 for two meals and another $12 for 4 drinks for him and his wife and then leave a $3 tip. He will then grumble that prices are too high and service was terrible. It happens---I've seen it! Oh, yes they drive a Lexus.

The Lexus is probably rented. Lots of $$ cars are just cheap rentals. Drive like a millionaire on Social Security. LOL

I've been known to enjoy gambling, but I wouldn't bet $.10 at a 1,000:1...that you're wrong on that. :D

Went 1PM today.

- parking lot more than adequate - many open spots, well laid out
- inside of store is almost 1/2 larger than expected - everything all stocked and lots of employees
- aisles wide, brightly lit, easy to navigate
- produce/deli/grocery/frozen etc seems to be just as much avail as a normal WM store.
- Gas pumps were 1/2 full - BTW $2.44 & 2.59, same price we saw at Colony Shell.
- the online order service in effect soon. The had $10 disc coupons to try.

Took pics, and a WM corp/mgr type told me this is the latest prototype of the USA Neighb WM and the largest... some pics taken>

Thank you DeanFl. I love a nice grocery store.

And Bogie, we didn't go and I didn't get a mug. Was hoping you would lend our family your mug.
