[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MD resident. I can walk to Total Wine in Friendship Heights. There’s a Wegman’s not far from me in DC and another one at Twinbrook.  I haven’t been to Virginia to shop in years.  Whatever works. [/quote]

This is now the second post that defends MD shopping by referencing stores in DC. The same ones actually.

Pike and Rose IPC is going out of business. The only two theatres within 5-10 miles of Bethesda are the Landmark in Bethesda and the Montgomery Mall AMC. Why deal with the parking issues in Bethesda or the sad depressing state of the AMC in Mont Mall when I can take DD to the Boro, AMC Tysons or the Tysons Galleria CMX, all of which are much nicer than anything in Bethesda? Those are 15-20 minutes from me because of my proximity to River Road exit. The Mosaic theater is 5 minutes further and it has great restaurants and a Neiman and Bloomingdale’s outlet and a Target that’s nicer than anything in MD in the same complex.

The only grocery store besides Whole Foods that’s worth going to in all of MoCo is the Westbard Giant. Everyplace else looks like it would have been torn down in McLean or North Arlington 10 years ago.

Stick your head in the sand all you want and brag about never going to Tysons. A lack of perspective and curiosity isn’t something to brag about.[/quote]
