Southbury Plaza Shopping Center — Attraction in Southbury

This place is okay. There are many good things in this plaza. Since Kmart left. There's a McDonald's in a Panera and a Chinese restaurant and stop and shop and TJ Maxx and an Old Navy and a Hallmark store and a wine store and a pet store and a dress store. Wow! Lots of stuff. But you only get four stars because there's no drive-thru in this whole freaking place. Nor is there a drive-thru in Southbury because God knows why. I mean Southbury is a very busy place, if the planning and zoning is trying to maintain the character of Southbury by not allowing drive throughs, well that ship has sailed-and. That horse is way out of the barn.

There's one more reason that this plaza got four stars and it really irks me that stop& shop had to move from its other location into this plaza simply to block a better supermarket from coming here. I mean this is a perfect spot for a Trader Joe's or Whole Foods. It is simply inexcusable what stop& shop did to avoid the competition? Much like they avoid the competition in other places like in Orange by starting a campaign against Stew Leonard's from coming there. But that's just my opinion, and any possible similarity between this opinion in real life is simply bogus. I will not be able to avoid going to this plaza in the future, and if you're reading this, you probably won't either. So let what I said about a different supermarket being in this...

TJ Maxx, we like to get our puppy/dog bowls here! They're Stoneware, heavy & keep the temperature of her water cold all day if it lasted that long. LOL But, her food stays in these safer, too, for many reasons. Be on guard w/the puppy toys they sell here. It's not a Pet store! The tennis balls are great, as they have squeaker sounds than normal tennis balls & come in 3 pks. Diff. colors, too. Fair price. Everyone loves TJ Maxx for different reasons! Sometimes, their jeans are a hit or a miss! Or you can walk out w/a neat top! Kids dept. even has some good stuff, just know your chit. My 4 yr. old grandson got me to buy him this light up rubbery approx. 6" ball, maybe bigger. It comes in diff. colors, too. He's...
