Welcome to the world of gadgets. Container farming is simple little space and no bending over. Potatoes grow under radishes. Ice cream, no brainier pour ingredients in ice cream maker, push start, half way thru add fruit if you like.

We have a calf raised, four of us split, we take hind quarter, as long as you don't go visit and look into those brown eyes it's all good grass feed beef. We get our chicken there also, they package all for freezer. Lasts us a year. I don't one stop shop I just open my front door and poof grocery is done.

Get my first order of cold, and frozen on Sunday, yes it coming on the weekend, and still free ship. As my kids say come out of the 80s no one wastes time shopping when you can be out having fun. Once you go to Amazon Prime it's hard to Go to a brick and mortar.

If Walmart is doing the click list and drive up to pick up, they will be busy, you send the order on the website, tell them what time go to the assigned spot, grocery put in your car, card swiped and off you go. Think about how ugly it gets in high season at grocery store. This will be a gift for villagers

WOW...I thought I was bad for worrying about our government, hurricanes, my health and our future....Now I must add having enough parking spaces at Way Mart. :pray:

Many thanks GG I've been off the site for almost 2 months and love the vote of confidence I get from you.

You need to look in the Amazon prime it is as my mother says life-changing. I bought them a echo, it's tied to my prime account, as she needs things she says Alexa order dove foam wash soap, and so on. No list or forget something at the store.

My parents get such a kick of of it and they don't have to drive, just open front door 7 days a week and there it is. I have an app that will tell me if item can bought elsewhere for less. Usually its pennies. You can do a month for free, easy directions, free delivery when you buy 5 of certain staples. Think no more lugging cat food, litter, paper towels, and heavy water bottles.

And the box has a cute smile on it:wave:

We will all be fine. I welcome the Walmart neighborhood market and pharmacy. Gas prices there will be less. I look forward to it being here at 466A.

Walmart Marketplace
 

Does anyone know who to contact or how to go about getting a job at the new Walmart Marketplace? I have actually driven by numerous times, and don't see any signs. Your suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

The Walmart web site has a section for jobs at Walmart.

Pick up food
 

It will be food pick up. You call your order in...they get it for you and you drive into those stalls to pick it up. I went buy it today and the stall said something like "food pick up".....can't remember exactly.

I have over $30.00 on my savings catcher!!!

When I lived in Melbourne, FL a Walmart neighborhood market opened across the street from a long established Publix. The prices at that Publix dropped quite a bit. However the 3 surrounding Publix stores maintained their higher prices.

Walmart Sarasota Plaza
 

Thx.

FULL-PAGE AD in today's Daily Sun says Oct. 4 Grand Opening.

To help us understand what you are requesting, could you name at least three things TV could consider doing to "address this situation"?

me too...... crowds...lines, and I always park way out in the back anyway...to protect my car.....

so parking....no big deal.....

thats a plus..... Publix does have some things....deli wise, that Walmart can't compete with.....flavor wise...

so thats a win..win...

Publix has excellent service. Walmart not so much. That said, I've not had the pleasure of a neighborhood Walmart so perhaps they are different.

What else is being built back in there besides the Walmart?

There will be a freestanding building with smaller storefronts. Courtyard Villas across the street.

According to the Sun Walmart opens Tuesday or Wednesday Yay

Are you new?

Yes you can order your groceries online and that's where you'll park to pick them up. There is also a window you'll walk up to to pay and receive your order.

I have been watching this section since the executive courses opened at Pine Ridge. As construction continued I began wondering what the line of traffic was going to be like entering the Pine Ridge gate, given that both cars and carts have to merge.

I know that the traffic coming off 466 to cross to Buena Vista via Belvedere created a back up at the Belevedere Gate quite annoying especially if you are a cart attempting to merge from the cart path

As to Walmart we are equal opportunity shoppers focused on a balance of price-value (utility for our $) so we shop all stores

Personal Best Regards:

80% of grocery’s is now done online, delivery at front door. Saves time, money, and don’t forget to get that odd item.

Same for the Publix. Had a similar situation in Denver when a WM moved in and Safeway had to lower prices almost immediately. Competition=Good.

Yes, the Colony Publix will be remodeling for the first time in its 11 years. Phooey, I'll have to learn where thing are all over again

What I want..... is for walmart to keep floorplans the same for ever.

Bad marketing strategy. Stores need you to check out items that you usually wouldn't look at. By changing aisles and floor plans, they get you to explore of the store and do more impulse shopping.

If I can’t find an item that is not where it was the last time, my only goal will be to find that item and absolutely not care about any of the items I pass by on my way there. But, that’s me.

There was a time when we were traveling and playing a lot of dominoes that my husband said he could walk into any WalMart blindfolded and find the aisle with the dominoes.

I was just kidding about "what I want"

Actually it's inconsequential and a petty thing to complain about.

that trend is reversing

Are you counting the 50 parking spaces on the sidewalk in front of the store where the lazy entitled people seem to park like everywhere else in The Villages.

Proof?


Link?

And let's not forget the covered space on the right side of the store for people to drive under to pickup online orders; the privileged/entitled will park there and go in the store.

Where is this happening?
 

With all due respect, where is this happening? It's not true in my part of the planet and certainly not in The Villages.

I don't know one person that orders groceries online and no one I've talked to knows anyone that orders groceries online. Maybe someone saw a movie about someone ordering online and it's now etched in their mind that it's reality. 80%, I don't think so.

Not at my houses

Absolutely, all of my friends and family order all their foods on the internet.

Yep in the villages and up north house and send to my parents. I don’t even have to make a list. Alexia keeps my lists separated free ship, one and done. Our meat comes from splitting a cow. Most Fresh veggies from my container gardens.

my parents love this, who are mid 80s. If you stop in most of our local grocery stores you will see a lot of shoppers but they have an extremely large cart in front of them and are shopping for at least 12 people at a time. Some of the groceries are shipped out within two hours and some prefer to pick it up. I can’t imagine wasting a couple hours to grocery shop for cans or paper products when somebody else can do it for me. After all doesn’t take rocket science to pick up probably 80% of your groceries it’s just time out of your life you don’t need to spend. At first my parents said it was a younger generation since all of my kids shop online for their groceries but now that they have been acclimated to online grocery they’ll never go back to driving to a store.

Take a look at when you go to the grocery store 80% of what you pick up doesn’t take much thought process. It might just be the younger generation doesn’t want to waste time but reality is there a lot of people online grocery shopping you just don’t realize it
