Their rows are narrow and the CPG selections also limited. Yes they try to be nice but I'm not paying for nice in lieu of quality and expansive food product. I love FL and TV but the supermarkets are disappointing.
Which is why there are choices. Wegmans is great but it's not here. Shop Rite was ok, to me, but nothing special. I understand the Publix stores in TV are smaller than stores outside TV and the larger stores offer more. But, we got what we got (Aldi's and Walmart included).
