4+ star Laundry
34th Laundromat
2320 SW 31st Pl#1 stop for laundry just around the corner from us.
Grocery shopping
This is the closest local grocery store with bulk items, apothecary (health & beauty department), hot/cold food buffet, etc. etc.
Prices are about the same as Whole Foods.
Earth Fare
3045 SW 34th StThis is the closest local grocery store with bulk items, apothecary (health & beauty department), hot/cold food buffet, etc. etc.
Prices are about the same as Whole Foods.
Whole Foods Market
3490 SW Archer RdWhole Foods has everything.
Prices are pretty high.
#1 stop for groceries should be at Trader Joe's.
They have everything, within reason.
Prices are the best in town - that's why "Trader" Joe's has its name! ;)
It's located in the middle of many shops that might be on your list - all you need to do is look around once you park.
While you're at it, can you spot the monkeys hanging from the tree that glows at night?...

Next best stop for bulk, apothecary, hot/cold buffet, etc. etc.
It's a bit further than Earth Fare, but the prices are much better.
(Nothing beats Trader Joe's, of course).

Ok, ok... so Ward's may be the only other probable equal of Trader Joe's, in terms of best grocery store in town.
Ward's is truly the only authentic *local* grocery store with everything that Whole Foods, Earth Fare, Luckys, and (last, but never least) Trader Joe's offers.
Their prices are VERY good for the quality they offer.
My partner and I are both fans.

If you're tired of making your own meals, but don't want to compromise on the quality, Daily Green is definitely the next best stop.
Prices are very good for the amount and quality they give.
It's located just next door to Depot Park, so you can "order to-go" and eat at the park!
Daily Green is also located in the heart of the Main Street Downtown area which has many fun attractions, which I will list below!

There's much more to see here than any Google pictures can offer.
Grab your "to-go" meal from Daily Green and head back over here, sit down in a shady spot with a good view and take in the scene for a little while.
Depot Park is a growing favorite of Gainesville because it is becoming one of the main venues for events in Gainesville!

Another favorite place to people-watch, hang out, or just nibble on some local food from one of the nearby cafes.
Bo Diddley Plaza is one of the local community's favorites, for certain.
* EVERY Wednesday (rain or shine) is market day, from 4-7PM.
Live music, fresh food, local food, goodies, yoga, playfulness, fun.
MUST SEE ;)

Didn't bring enough "right" clothes for this trip? Or maybe just want another summer dress, or proper shoes?
Whatever it may be, I personally, highly recommend Sandy's.
* if you have things that you no longer need - for whatever reason - Sandy's consignment boutique will likely buy the stuff you're letting go of.
It may be enough for you to get something you'd rather have.
