That store looks fantastic in Ames green!

And the ShopRite has all the bells and whistles!

Is this anywhere near Neptune Beach?  Over the summer, I stayed in Ocean Grove (about 2 miles from Asbury Park) and Neptune Beach was close to our house.

I think the first Wal-Mart Supercenter and Home Depot in NJ were near Asbury Park too. The first Sam's Club was the former Bradlees in Cinnaminson which closed in 1989.

No, I assure you that the first Wal-Mart Supercenter in NJ was in Turnersville:

Yes, that sounds about right. I think the second one was in Old Bridge near Asbury Park.

The second one was in Deptford:

Old Bridge doesn't have a Supercenter, just a regular Wal-Mart. They want to build one there but townspeople and a local union are opposing the project.

Maybe it wasn't Old Bridge. I think the town was "orange" something.

These are all the current supercenters in NJ:

Turnersville
Deptford
Deptford (2)
Vineland

Another one is currently being built in Somerdale. Walmart.com says there are six supercenters in NJ, but I searched them up on their online locator and I only found four.
