HUNKY Posted November 6, 2014 #1 Share Posted November 6, 2014 We are taking a taxi from FLL to Port Everglades and would like to pick up a 12 pack of soda, and some snacks along the way. Is there a convenience or grocery store along the way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HUNKY Posted November 6, 2014 Author #2 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Thanks to our friend Google Maps, I noticed that the North Port entrance is off the 17th Causeway at Eisenhower Blvd. Just before Eisenhower is a Chevron gas station/mini mart, there is also a Publix grocery store at the Harbor Shops.

Is there a convenience or grocery store along the way? The Publix mentioned above will have the best selection and prices. Aso, in case you are interested in wine, there is a Total Wine store in the same complex (Harbor Shops) as Publix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eandj Posted November 6, 2014 #5 Share Posted November 6, 2014 I'd stop at a CVS, Walgreens or Publix anywhere along the way. As mentioned there are all three near the port. Just figure in adding $$ to your taxi rate and move fast to make it worthwhile ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HUNKY Posted November 8, 2014 Author #6 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Ok, any idea how much taxis charge per minute for waiting in Ft. Lauderdale? I know the trip between airport and port is about $10-$15, but I'd like to know how fast my shopping spree needs to be! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eandj Posted November 8, 2014 #9 Share Posted November 8, 2014 (edited) Have your list made and take another experienced shopper in with you to make it short and sweet.;) If I sent my DH in, he'd stop to look at magazines after hunting for the things on the list. ;( Edited November 8, 2014 by eandj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HUNKY Posted November 10, 2014 Author #10 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Thanks for all the info! Might just have to bring a bottle of some good wine on board too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
