They have this at a grocery store in Ft Lauderdale. Guess this guy
doesn't get around much.
We don't have very many two level retail stores here outside the
malls
which are in some cases over 30 years old. I can't think of even one,
like I said, outside the malls...

It's like when I was in the south. "Over yonder" can mean 50 feet, or
50 miles.. I guess if you consider "getting around" shopping, so be
it, for some it's driving 400 miles to go fishin' of in our case,
surviving another 0.85 mile circuit of a Motocross track

Just pokin' hey, what's with the server?

Rowdy Mouse Racing, quick dismounts suck!

There's a two-level Target store at the Springfield Mall in
Springfield, Virginia. They've got an escalator especially for
shopping carts. I like to watch it!

WTF?!

In Annapolis, the Target is a one level store on the third floor on
top of a two-level parking garage. Store just opened.

Very Cool.

We used to have some free-standing large department stores outside
of malls that were multi-level, but I think most of them have closed.

Ever tell you about the time I Peed my Pants in a Publix?
Never happened.

Yep. In the Target store in Springfied...next to the "people
escalator" there is a escalator for your cart. Takes it up to the
second level or down. I haven't been to that store in a couple of
years, so I don't know if the escalator is still there...but it was a
fascinating device.


Target in Gaithersburg MD has the cart escalator too. Just depends
upon how much land the store has to build upon.



I only visit Montgomery County to shop at MicroCenter or to attend the
Greek Festival. :) The county is too damned crowded for my taste.
Some nice restaurants, though.


Stay North of Shady Grove Road and East of I-270 the rest of it is a
parking lot on the weekends.
