Does any one know?

I plan on taking a cab to the Wal-Mart at 3250 Vineland rd. because it is the closest to the hotel to do some grocery shopping. I was wondering what is around this Wal-Mart. Are there restuarants any other stores with in walking distance and also is this a safe neighborhood?

There are also 3 local grocery delivery options, cheaper than a taxi and of course less time-consuming:

This is the WalMart you're referring to.

As you can see, there isn't much within easy walking distance other than the vacation homes behind it, and US 192 about 1/2 mile to the south.

But don't be fooled. Just because US 192 is only 1/2 mile away doesn't mean it's an easy walk; there are no sidewalks on that stretch of SR 535 (except right in front of WalMart itself), and traffic is extrememly heavy and very fast. I wouldn't recommend walking it even if you weren't carrying a bunch of WalMart bags - you'd be taking your life into your hands.

Have you tried a google search for grocery stores in the area? There must be more than just WalMart.

Thanks for the help. I will probably end up still going there just because I always forget stuff and don't realize it til I am walking down the isle of the grocery store and wal-mart has everything. I guess another location is 4444 West Vine, Does any one know anything about that location? I really appriciate the help. I am taking my DD (7) and my nephew (9) along with my 50 year old mom, so safety is a must. I am also going to look at the grocery delivery web sites.

What hotel are you staying at? There are Wal-marts all around so knowing the hotel would help.

I am sorry that would be good info. I am staying at the All star Music.

The closest Wal-Mart would be the one on 535 and Osceola Parkway. It is about 5 miles from All star music. 4444 W. Vine is about 6 more miles east of the one above. The Turkey Lake Wal-mart is about 12 miles from All star music. The wal-mart on 27 is about 15 miles on the route a taxi will take to get you there.
