That's the Wal-Mart we shop at when we are there, we stay at terra verde on ponciana Blvd. So we turn north then go along Oren Brown and turn into Wal-Mart (the turn in is just behind the medieval times place). Yes!

I hope they are like the aldis here, we are a bit more budget this year!

There has been an Aldi opposite Walmart near Medieval Times for about 4 years and they are building another one on the 192 near where Cane Island resort is - unfortunately the money saved in Aldi could well be spent on doughnuts from Krispi Kreme across the road. (especially if the "red light" is on).

Oh really? How did we not notice it last time? We were coming in to Wal-Mart from behind medieval times along Oren Brown and not along the 192, maybe that's why.

Hmmmm...

I think it might be better for bbq stuff than Wal-Mart!

As you came along Oren Brown and in to Walmart behind MT that will be why you haven't seen it - if you stand with your back to the entrance to Walmart looking across 192 it is on the other side of the road.

The new one being built on 192 is virtually opposite inbetween the "Wizard" gift shop and Longhorn Steakhouse.

Have not been for a few years but last time we went I was able to use my Costco memebership. Hoping to use it again this time in July

I see the attraction of ALDI, I was an early adopter over here, but I just can't bring myself to shop in one in the US. It would feel too like home. I love the American shopping experience too much.

I am sure you can but I find the location pretty inconvenient. I have lived here for almost 2 years and still have a card through DH's UK business. I haven't managed to make a trip though as it really isn't close enough to bother for me.

Very close to Berry Town Centre in Tuscan Hills
Would the rolling oaks store be completed by July?

It isn't at Rolling Oaks but a couple of miles west at Summer Bay. It is just before the junction with H27 so very close to you despite the Cleremont address.

I have no idea of the planned opening date but July looks possible.

The cashier in Walgreens told me I could have used my Boots Advantage card last year - unfortunately I didn't have it with me, but thanked her for future trips.

I do wonder if I'll need to update my card, though, as it's an old pink one I've had almost as long as the scheme's been running!
