<li><p>Nope. None within walking distance, lots within a few minutes drive.</p></li>
<li><p>Car rental services? I don’t think this is real, lol. I have never heard of anyone renting a car to drive around Gainesville. And rental car companies have serious age restrictions. Have you looked into this at all? </p></li>
<li><p>N/A.</p></li>

<p>as far as i know with 2, zipcar is the only one who rents to 18 y/os</p>
<p>if you want to stop at a store you may need a car</p>
<p>I know friends that took city buses to supermarkets.</p>
