Ok, I could see that happening in peak season. I’d rather sit in traffic to get to Publix than settle for Tom Thumb or Piggly Wiggly or especially Winn-Dixie.
Oh, me too! I love Publix and miss it. My Kroger could use a serious upgrade, but it’s the closest thing to me. It’s a step above the others you’ve mentioned, but if I could have a Publix within an hour’s drive if where I am, I would go there religiously. Anytime we go to the Southern states, people think I’m weird, but I volunteer to do the grocery shopping (Publix only). I just wish I didn’t have to break from the beach to go do it. Maybe we shouldn’t do all the cooking while we’re there though. It does cut down on the costs.
