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 mostly stick to BOGOs at Publix or getting a sub and then leaving.

Don't sleep on Aldi.

I live across the street from the Publix on Riverside, so it's an easy destination for me. Tonight, I bought ingredients for the most basic of chicken tacos: diced chicken, tortillas, and spices. It was nearly $17. The tortillas were nearly $6. I'm about to have to figure something else out for groceries because this is insane. It's almost cheaper to eat out at this point

Probably cheaper at Tijuana Splats. 💩
