.Don't even JOKE about that soul sucking retail hell-hole coming to 30-A!!! :angry:
we have NEVER purchased ANYTHING at a walmart. if they decide to try to open here we should talk to the folks in mary esther who successfully fought building one in their town!
**cue evil laughter*** muahaha--muahahhaahahaaThere are some interesting parcels up and down Hwy 98 that already have a DO for a big box store approved. Just a matter of changing the name from one to another. The time to fight has already passed.
I bet there's a lot of "closet Walmart shoppers" on and around 30A.
Hi, I'm Shelly, I live in South Walton county and I occasionally shop at Walmart (I also own their stock). Would I like to have had Walmart never happen?--of course, but it's now so big, it's woven into the fabric of American retail.
With all the "investulator/developers" who are commerical-property-rich and cashflow poor, and the counties pimping themselves for any kind of tax revenue and "job growth," I don't think it's a matter "if" Walmart will pop up near here, it's a matter of "when." And as the economy slogs through the depths of this recession, I think Walmart is watching and patiently waiting, waiting, waiting...
Once this genie is let loose from the bottle, watch out for the food chain drive-thrus to fly in under the radar.
