Pointer Ridge Plaza — Local services in Bowie

Pointer Ridge plaza….oh boy. Let’s see here. Well after 32 years of living on this street and spending time at this plaza over the years - its constantly changing. Sometimes in bad ways, like when far too many shops were out of business and the place looked ghetto and vacant. But now? Subway is great, always. Dollar Tree is my go-to destination and the employees are awesome. The fact that they know my name goes to show, I’m there frequently. Beijing Subs, they’ve been there my entire life and their food is AWESOME. They’re very fast and even when we were hit with several feet of snow, they remained open 🙌🏼. The liquor store (lol) I’m not sure if this is even legal but they maximize their profits in a way that I’m willing to bet, wouldn’t fall under “compliance”. You don’t buy a bunch of 30 packs of beer, and instead of selling them as is, in the proper container….. cut up the box and then sell the beer in increments of 4 or maybe 6 - at a jacked up price. When they should’ve been purchased as a whole. Great way to end up pulled over and get hit with “driving with an open container”. Driving around with an odd number of beer bottles? Yeah, the lid doesn’t have to be open for it to be considered open container. Sounds pretty crazy but if my professor was a judge, I’m gonna assume that what I just said is in fact true.

So watch yourself. Simply put it in the trunk and you’re good. Keep anything you buy there “out of reach” or just prepare yourself for a potential situation that you never expected.

But hey, they don’t care. They make more 💰 chopping up bulk items that aren’t supposed to be sold separately.

You also have to spend at least 15 bucks or you have to pay in cash.

In other words, no. I don’t go there unless the worlds coming to an end. In fact I drove 20 mins to get to the other side of Bowie…where one liquor store was still open, just to avoid this place. And it’s 1 mile from my house haha. No thanks.

I like my beer in a box like it’s supposed to be, it’s kinda helpful considering there’s a handle and all...

I live in Pointer Ridge and love having the convenience of the Pointer Ridge Plaza. Until recently the plaza has always been a very clean place to shop etc. However, I recently visited the plaza and noticed and abundance of trash along the curbside and all down the walkway. I’ve tried contacting the management company, but to no avail. I’m seriously hoping that this problem will...
