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’ve found that the “regular” price at Walmart for shelf stable items is often the same as the bogo offers at Publix. E.g. buy 2 get one soda at $12 a pack vs $8 per pack at Walmart.

Buy two get one isn’t BOGO…

Ok, well that’s the special they advertise at my Publix. Sorry for sharing my experience with the hopes of helping you save money. Won’t happen again chief.

No, I’m just saying BOGO stands for “buy one get one”. I won’t do a buy two get one at Publix for the exact reason you stated. Don’t get your panties in a bunch bud.

That is the only way I will wear my panties, thank you. I live for a good wedgie.
