There were rumors that Red Lobster and or Olive Garden were going in when Porter's left Spruce Creek across from Summerfield WalMart where Office Depot now stands. There were also rumors about a Costco coming in north of WalMart on rte 441 across from Lutheran Church. That was just another rumor.

A good addition to TV would be a First Watch. They serve Breakfast, Brunch, Lunch only. Last I heard they were looking at TV and possible sites. Would like to see a Friendly's open in TV. Their ice cream is pretty good.

You won't see Wegman's come to Florida. Over the years, the Wegmans (Rochester, NY) and the Jenkins (Lakeland, FL) families have grown to be good friends and they would not compete with each other. Besides, distribution to less than 20 stores is a big problem. Same goes for Trader Joes.

A great addition would be Jason's Deli. It is headquartered in Texas, and there is one in Altamont Springs in the shopping center between Baer's Furniture and Petco.

We visited the Villages last week. Amazing lifestyle. Aside from rumours of new stores and a viable wish list, what new stores or malls are planned for the Villages. Does anyone know what is really on the books now and in the near future ??? ???

If you check the AC Moore website and go to Store Locator they have a new store listed as opening within the next year just south of 466. I believe it's off 441 in the area of all the new construction.

How about you......?

No to Wegmans...............................Yes to Shop-Rite

Reason. Their prices are higher than any SM in the Northeast like Southern Jersey.

What would be nice is a real restaurant with a fine dining flair. Most of the chains just don't cut it for me.
How about real French or Italian or just plain American, but really nice. Forget the fat, grease, grits and gravy.

A piano or jazz bar that stays open past 9:00 that people can sit around chat and enjoy music in comfort.

Wegman's is indeed terrific! Would really enjoy having a Charlie Brown's Steakhouse here: fantastic salad bar and excellent, reasonably priced meals. I don't think they exist outside of the Northeast, though....

Kitrina,

LOVE the Christmas Tree Shop! They opened one in North Wilmington. When I go up to my sons', I always go there. Always go to Trader Joe's when up there also--the only one in DE.


Surprised there is no Dunkin' Donuts in TV (or is there) You can't go anywhere here without running into one.

Peggy,

There is a Dunkin Donuts on 466 in Southern Trace shopping area; I think an earlier poster had lamented that there wasn't one closer to their house.

Hi All,

I am very disappointed with Trader Joe's response. I just emailed them about the possibility of accepting an order from us and what the shipping charges would be. When they respond I will post the answer.

I have shopped at both Wegman's and ShopRite. Wegman's is less expensive than ShopRite,.

Would also like a Sweet Tomatoes here and Charlie Brown.

Sweet Bay is part of the Hannaford Chain, or perhaps it is the other way around, you can not compare them to Wegman's. Wegman's is offers more items and specialty areas and prices are better.

I have shopped in both Hannaford and Wegman's.

Now if we all could get our wishes granted. That would be great.

HB - A previous post had this:

Sweet Tomatoes is being built--I think on 466. I LOVE Sweet Tomatoes.
http://www.sweettomatoes.com/

Not sure if this is true because the website still doesn't have a TV location planned.
