grocery stop on turkey day????

[goofy4tink]

We arrive on Thanksgiving Day. FL Tours is picking us up and we have requested a grocery stop. Since we'll be at BWV's with those terrific kitchen facilities we want more than peanut butter sandwiches. But, are any of the regular grocery stores open after noon on T-day? I didn't know exactly where to post this and thought that maybe the Florida residents could give some imput?? Thanks a lot.

I don't know about FL, but in my area the stores are open until about 1 or 2, so those that run out of stuff can still pick up last minute Stove Top stuffing and such. The stores are a MAD house, though, so be prepared that it may take you longer than normal to make it through the store. This maybe a problem as the stop is usually only 20 minutes before they start to charge you extra for it.

I do know that Publix' company policy is to be closed on Thanksgiving Day (also Christmas Day and Easter.)

We are also arriving on Thanksgiving Day and wanted a grocery stop for snacks, sandwich stuff and drinks (no major groceries).

The towncar company I was speaking with said that the store they use is closed that day.

This may be a larger problem than I anticipated.

Our flight arrives @ 12:40 p.m. Any store that would've been open that morning for last minute forgottens, will surely be closed by the time we get there!

Any other thoughts or opinions?

You might be able to stop at a convenience store. We have done this before with the Happy Limo grocery stop when going to the Disney Wonder for our annual Thanksgiving cruise.
