I'll take a Target, especially if it offers something I need as opposed to the new Walmart/super Tom Thumb which is a complete waste of space. Nothing there - I've given it a shot twice. It is strictly for tourists.
No kidding- I gave up on the SoWal Walmart and just have Bdarg pick up the stuff we get there on his way home from work at the Niceville location. Went in with a list, came out with not even half the list purchased. I swear Tom Thumb has more of the stuff we use - we call the SoWal store the "silly little Walmart."
I will say the same thing I said about the South Walton Walmart- we have a Target in PCB and Destin- do we really need another? It takes 20 minutes to drive to Pier Park- that is not convenient enough?

I've been to the South Walton Wal-Mart 3 times. I hope to never go again because I detest banner planes and yesterday they were flying a banner plane on the beach. Also about a month ago i wanted to buy a smaller tent for the Farmer's market so I could put it on my bike. I called to see if they sold canopy tents
(I'd already been to the store and realized they are not a full service Wal-Mart and didn't want to waste my time going) After being on hold for 5 minutes a guy tells me they don't sell them. They transfered me to Electronics and my feeling is this guy didn't want to bother looking. So about a week later I go to Wal-Mart with my husband who is looking for something that he could have gotten at Radio Shack if they were still in South Walton, but of course they didn't have whatever he was looking for. Had to verify that they didn't sell tents and low and behold they sell 2 kinds. I had already got what I needed online.
The employees at Publix or For the Health of it will go out of there way to find stuff for you. IF I call For the Health of it and they don't have something I'm looking for they always offer to special order it and I have it within the week.
Went once to tiny tourist w mart, won't make that mistake again. Tourists,believe me, you can get anything they have in whatever South Walton area you are staying . What a waste of land.
