Late night flight arrival - where to food shop?

[daleandmia]

My DH and I will be arriving into MCO at 11:30pm and will take a car service to Universal Studios (spending a week there and then saving the best for last and spending a week at AKL). My question is this...I want to take a car service that makes a shopping stop but the Publix is closed that late at night. The car service said they typically take folks to 7-11 instead. I do NOT want to do my shopping at a 7-11.

Any suggestions? Does anyone know of another late night place to food shop? Maybe a 24-hour WalMart or Walgreens/CVS? Thanks in advance!!

There is a 24-hour Wal-Mart located in the Kissimmee area - address in link. It always seems to be busy (we were there during off-hours just to avoid the crowds!), but any port in a storm.....

you could use a grocery service and not have to worry about it. They will deliver to your hotel for you.

www.gardengrocer.com is what we used and they were great. There are others out there as well. Don't know the answer to your question though. Good luck.

Companies generally only offer a complimentary grocery stop to stores "on the way". They limit the complimentary stop to stores customers are generally able to finish their shopping (and check out) in the 20-30 minutes allocated. Some companies won't stop at stores like WalMart or COSTCO for that reason. Hess minimart has good prices on bottled water, soda and "fun food". I'm sure a driver will be happy to stop at a Walgreens or CVS.

Make enough phone calls and you'll probably find a driver who'll offer a stop at WalMart, maybe not for free.
