Are the any 24 hour shopping options in Orlando other than Walmart Supercenters? I'm thinking more of grocery but more would be good too. Right now I am in Sarasota and except for Walmart a few restaurants and bars the place shuts down by 10 pm, I hope Orlando isn't quite as bad.

I'm sure that most things will not be open past 10 pm but it would be nice if there are more options than here.

I can't think of any grocery. Some CVS and Walgreen stores are 242/7.

If you don't want to go to the Supercenter, try Walmart Neighborhood Market (grocery only), some are open 24/7.

Walmart Neighborhood Market (they're popping up everywhere)
Some CVS and Walgreens stores
Many restaurants/bars will be open late (bars to 2pm), especially in the tourist district. I went to the TGI Friday's next to Universal this past Saturday and it was bustling.

Don't support Wal-Mart. If you feel the overwhelming urge to, try working for them for a while. It will cure you on your need to shop there.

To be honest, even when I lived in NYC there was very little open past 10-11 pm as far as shopping. Certainly none of the grocery stores. Even most of the bodegas closed around midnight, maybe 1:00 on the weekends.

I remember Albertsons used to be open 24hrs, of course most of them are closed now. It looks like the one in Altamonte stays open til 2am though.

What about any super Target's I'd shop at Target any day over Walmart. Of course this might not be such an issue in Orlando, I might not (hopefully won't) have a second shift job there. Still I like Shopping late when most people aren't. Back where I grew up in Oregon a lot of stores where open 24 hrs so I was really surprised when I got here to Florida and hardly anything is.

2am is correct. I miss their 24 hour a day days because it was nice when I got the urge to wake up at 3 and shop, but hey 2am is great for late snacks and no lines. Sadly many stores, even Wal-Mart are going away from the 24 model for business reasons.

Back when I lived in Gainesville you could count on Kash & Karry being open at any time. I think I actually saw a sign for one out near the I-drive area, but it looked different though. Not sure if it's the same store.
