I've been in the outlet store at St Augustine where everything they intend to sell is 50% off , which makes a shirt sell for $59. How many $59 shirts do I need? How much does a $59 shirt cost to make in Sri Lanka. Another store to prey on our visitors.

Good. A range of stores -- thrift, consignment, outlet, retail, upscale -- is exactly what a community of our size needs. Shirts from $9 to $159 should be enough to suit anyone's taste.

"Prey on our visitors"??? Have never bought anything yet because a store took out my wallet and took my cash or card!

I love Tommy Bahama furnishing, but not always in the budget. Clothing may work in FL, not so much in PA. It would be an interesting addition to The Villages.

I agree with all your comments including the furnishings - very attractive but very pricey. This will be a good addition to Brownwood.

that's what I thought. . . who, what, where???

If it is too expensive for most villagers, it won't float. That doesn't mean anything good or bad about Tommy Bahama'a or anything good or bad about Villagers.

We are as a whole, a thrifty bunch. Some call us cheap. We don't want to outlive our savings.
