P.F.Chang's YES. Never ever been in a Trader Joes, but everyone says they are great. I also like Costco. Don't recall Dress Barn.

It would be great to have a facility with Squash-/Racquet-Ball (also useable for hand-ball) courses and public (for Villagers) jet tubs.

By "jet tubs", do you mean whirlpool hot tubs?

Ehh, no thanks. The water would have to be extremely chlorinated to take care of "certain issues" involving hot swirling water and seniors not wanting to get out of the tubs periodically.

Seriously, they would have a captive audience in TV shoppers, as it's a great store, for upgrading and decorating one's home at reasonable prices, for what you get in quality. IMHO

There's a Home Goods over in Orlando, not far from the World Market. I know that's not close, but it's closer than Lauderdale!

A Trader Joe's would be great. Whole Foods too, but I doubt that would ever happen.

That's the one I was referring to, but called it Orlando.

That's funny! You have at least another 24 hours!

COSTCO>>>>PLEASE!!! Ok also Trader Joes and P. F. Changs!

I would like to have a Bahama Breeze in The Villages. Seems like the right type of place that would fit in perfectly.

Of course, most of us guys would love to have Hooters in The Villages - but NOT with Villages waitresses!
