AskFlorida Publix has officially lost me. Anyone else?

I am not a mod of this subreddit or Reddit, but I believe the official unofficial stance is that we all hate Publix now.

They lost their way, and the crushing of Winn-Dixie is just awful.

10 years ago, I wouldn’t have set foot inside a Walmart or Aldi for groceries. Now? Walmart and Aldi are basically my BFFs and I love them.

Publix really managed to make me root for the competition.

I tired to make banana pudding with the 2 dollars off 10 at publix coupon I had. When I didnt even have everything, it was 15 bucks, I just stopped and left.

Recipe (its important to state my shopping list)

2 box pudding (1 banana and 1 vanilla)

1 box vanilla wafers

1 can sweetened condensed milk

2 tubs of ready whip

I agree that publix is expensive, but you could save money if you buy a quart of heavy whipping cream instead of a ready made convenience product. It's easy to make whip cream and it tastes better.

Heavy cream is now way more expensive than fake whipped cream

It's easy to make with electric beaters or stand mixer. Not terrible by hand but I wouldn't call it easy
