Inside the plaza is a Winn Dixie, Goodwill, nail shop, pizza, a Cuban cafe and several other retailers. It's stuff you need and would buy anyway. It's definitely worth it to drive a little out of your way for this deal.
So grab some coupons, make your list (check it twice) and make your dollars and time count.
It's a small, but meaningful way people are helping people.
After all, that's what it's all about. Remember the reason for the season.
