Wal-mart or Target enroute to Orlando from Tampa?

[YYC_Mommy]

It looks like we will be flying into Tampa, picking up a van rental and driving to Orlando. This will save us over $800 for our family of 4 for that one flight.

Now the flight it not ideal as it gets into Tampa at 8:38pm. Does anyone know of a Walmart or Target store on the way to Orlando? Or is it better to just stop at one when we get to Orlando?

Thanks in advance!

There's a Target just south of I-4 at exit #55 in Davenport. I don't know how late it stays open, however. There *is* a Target right near the Tampa airport near the intersection of Dale Mabry and Spruce St., but it does not include a grocery store. (I don't know if the one in Davenport does -- I've seen it but never been inside.)

I think that the closest Walmart to the highway along that stretch is in Lakeland, but as I recall it is not what I would call close to I-4, it's at least about 5-6 miles away from the highway.

Thanks for all the information. We just would like to pick up a few things like water, snacks etc for the following day.

Where in Orlando are you going? There may be one or the other closer to your final destination.

We are staying at 13875 State Road 535, does that help? It is the Bryan's Spanish Cove.

Thanks for your help!

There's a Super Walmart just south on 535 about a mile or so from Bryan's Spanish Cove.
If you look at this map Bryan's is just above marker #152 (buildings form a V shape with red roofs) Walmart is #56 and a little further on there's a Publix on the corner #135 and just a little further from that on 192 there's a Super Target #57
