I do know better, but I had to get a prescription at Publix and they were closed last night when I went. (Which, come on. Update the store hours on your website.)
Tuesday is Publix's senior shopping hours including the pharmacy, so I showed up around 6:55am for a 7am opening. The lot was packed and a huge line of people was waiting; they must have queued up by 6:30. They were only allowing people in one entrance, but I didn't want to get in line with everyone CROWDED together. I hung back waiting for people to finish entering, but after 20 MINUTES I still couldn't see the end of the line. I asked the staff person who was barring the other door if I could please just get to the pharmacy, and she kindly let me.
What did all those people think they were gaining by going early? There wouldn't have been a line and no waiting during standard hours. I suppose there's a chance more items would be in stock earlier in the day, but personally I'd rather chew glass.
