Supplies on arrival - idrive no car
Helloooo,
Starting to get to the details. When we arrive we plan to go get some supplies such as water, snacks etc. We are staying at Rosen Inn at Pointe and have no car. Happy to uber or we've got an iride trolley pass. Just wondering where is best and not being ripped off? In vegas we often just use CVS but I can see quite a few options on idrive and wondered where was best in your experience?x |

You have a CVS virtually next door or a Walgreens across the road, both within walking distance. The hotel has a small store but I'm guessing expensive
If you want to go to further afield by Uber there is a Publix on IDrive near Vineland Premium Outletsor a Walmart just off Sand Lake Rd but for what you need I'm guessing Walgreens will do the job Edited at 11:14 PM. |

There’s a Walgreens just across the street which is where we go when we’ve stayed there, there’s a cvs just down the road too but walgreens is closer, an uber or lyft wont cost much though if you wanted to go to walmart on turkey lake road, it’s not far but not walkable

Walmart just off Sand Lake Rd is just down the road, uber / lyft or cab wouldnt cost the earth and will have more than cvs or walgreens, though cvs can be sensible with prices

Thanks for answers so far. I'm ashamed to say last time on our first visit we used hotel water bottles etc. They were cheaper than the parks but from what I've seen on vlogs ridiculous! Is there much difference price wise between cvs and wallgreens or any other recommendations? I'd kind of like to bulk buy 2 weeks worth of water for 4 adults for example lol x

Walgreens is always first port of call for us very reasonable prices compared to the shop in Rosen but whatever you will have a great holiday in that hotel and location

Thanks - I certainly hope so! Its the same hotel we stayed at on our first trip but hoping to learn from a few expensive mistakes... we discovered uber on our last day last time which cost a small fortune... that and the theme park waters could have bought us another trip haha x

Don’t forget to get the Walgreens app. You get the saver price using this. Load the app and tap your phone as you pay. Have saved $12 so far in 2 small shops
