Had to do a stop, drop, and roll when I saw this today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

$20 for a tub of coffee. These were less than $8 before COVID. The Walmart down the street sells these for 11.98.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How does Publix justify being almost double the cost of competitors? I worked in the warehouse for 5 years, and we definitely did not get treated good enough to justify these prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Publix has officially lost me. Anyone else?<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

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

They lost their way, and the crushing of Winn-Dixie is just awful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10 years ago, I wouldn\u2019t have set foot inside a Walmart or Aldi for groceries. Now? Walmart and Aldi are basically my BFFs, and I love them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Publix really managed to make me root for the competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
