The only complaint that I hear is that their stores(especially Colony) are crowded. We find that to be true at certain times and especially during "the season". Our time since retiring is quite flexible so we shop at slower times.

I was not attempting to "Promote" Publix, but rather provide useful info about a quality business- we see so many negative experiences on these threads.

I am curious why you asked the question the way you did.

P.S. I do belong to a Villages Rotary Club which has received a significant amount of financial support from Publix for our local and international philanthropic efforts. This kind of commitment from Publix has been experienced by many organizations throughout their market area. When writing first post, their community support was not on my mind or I would have included it there.

Nice reply.
