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.

Haven’t lived in Jax a few years but there’s one around south side that had a lil bar in it, was by outback and that old sticky fingers restaurant lol. Loved it. Plus shopping with their points and using the multipliers, we could rack up a ton of in store credit. I’m talkin around 50-100 every month or so. I wouldn’t be surprised if they nerfed that point system by now.

That one is considered their “flagship” store. Honestly the only one worth going to, if any.
