Latest Walmart Store

Hi all.
I have heard there is a new Walmart somewhere near the 192. Does anyone know where it is, and what it is like?
Is it bigger than some of the others, (Turkey Lake Road, Clermont, etc)
Thanks
James

Thanks Marie. You would think that it would be my wife Andrea who would enjoy shopping, but I'm afraid it's me. I love Walmart. Mainly because I'm a bit on the, shall we say slightly larger. And I can get everything to fit me there.
The UK supermarkets like Asda, Tesco, don't do anything in my size.

Its one of my pet peeves, that we are told we are a nation of overweight people, but they don't make clothes to fit. Ha Ha.
Sorry rant over.

I am not am expert on Wal-Mart but I don't think it is any bigger. It is very close to the AK side of Disney if that helps.

Hi James, yes, Wal-Mart is great for choice/variety - love W-M! Also, think I've seen larger sizes in Super-Target. There are other clothes stores that have larger sizes over there, sorry, can't help with those, perhaps if you ask the question on your thread or post another, specific one, and you fancy having a wider (!) mooch around, you could try some of the other suggested stores.

Thanks Bella. I never thought of Super-Target. (Thats another store to go to.)
Hope we find enough time for Disney and Universal.
We're flying back PE with Virgin, so extra cases it is then.

Yeah, if you go, make sure it's Super-Target and not just the regular one - on the larger side myself, and find there's loads of choice out there. I've seen Dibbers mention other stores that carry larger sizes, but not sure if there is a lot for men.

You probably already know, but W-M are open 24/7 (close one day: Christmas Day) so, have a nap after the parks then treat yourselves to some late night shopping and get filling in thoses extra cases!

Certainly will. After all, its mainly Disney we go for. Oh and Universal, and The sunshine, and the food, and the people. (Not forgetting the shopping)

I'm starting to realise that maybe 2 weeks isn't really long enough.
