Is the location by Hobby Lobby owned by The Villages?

Don't say I didn't tell you . . .
Sam's club has their memberships on sale for $14. Normally $50:
"Offer valid through April 30, 2024." Lucky we let ours expire 6 weeks ago. When my car needed a battery, Sam's put one in. Costco - "Cash and carry; we don't install." |

Lots of other places for Costco to locate sure they had good reasons for this location |

Smile away, I’m not stopping anyone who joins or been members. I was member of sams club 20 plus years ago. Figured out I could get same things at Walmart without over spending bulk items. |

It will be interesting to see how much business the new Costco will take away from Sam's, BJ's, and nearby gas stations.
I would think that most people who shop at the previously listed big box stores do so by default only because of convenience/proximity, and due to the fact that there isn't currently a Costco in The Villages. I'm sure there are a few holdouts who will claim that those existing stores are better. They are incorrect. The residents of Middleton in particular should be quite happy with the news. |

Costco same script titanium frames with green photo tinted at Costco $159. Since chemo has destroyed my 20/20 vision, it also changes my site sometimes multiple times a day, so have 4 different scripts for difficult days. Last year our check back from Costco was $267. Pays for our membership and a pair of glasses |

The Clermont COSTCO is probably a faster/easier drive most times from Middleton and other southern Villages than driving north/south through the Villages. |

I agree pike is less than 2 miles for us, to Clermont, plus a pleather of great restaurants. If we are in the area will drop into new Costco, but that doesn’t happen often. But still very happy Costco is coming and very glad we have so little retail in the south.

My post was responding to someone who thought developers gave them a deal. My comment was about Costco has been in the works for years according to Goldwing. So maybe a little back and forth, but developers still have the upper hand. |
