Not a bit surprised that Wal-Mart ranked #2. The wife swears by their low prices but only buys name brand canned goods, oils, and dressings.

On at least two occasions I have left a cart full of groceries rather than continue to wait on line while a stupid cashier tries to resolve a problem. Meanwhile no one has sense enough to open up other registers and get the lines moving.

Publix on the other hand is always a pleasant experience and carries quality produce and meats. Service is excellent too. Unfortunately their prices tend be higher on everything.

Nine times out of ten, if I’m in WalMart I wind up using the self scan. They may have 2 dozen registers, but only 3 or 4 of them manned at any one time. I rarely do a big shopping there.

The Wallie nearest me, has only a *token* section of groceries in their store. I won’t waste gas to go there b/c of the distance, but if I am in the area I stop b/c their dairy is a lot lot cheaper than regular markets.

I think Costco has the cheapest milk...but I don’t have one nearby and let my membership expire.

Only time my Wallie doesn't have lines is between 10AM - 2PM....when all the *seasoned citizens* are out and about....doing errands after their cataract doctor appointments.

You just hafta quit your day job. ;)
