Would you rather pay $1.50 a roll and actually come home with several roles or pay 25 cents and spend your day on the hunt? I'll pay! No Problem. Those people in Publix are part owners No? Paying a little more is just Stimulating Them. After all, look at what all retail people are doing to serve us all.

Remember about a month ago we discussed tipping Supermarket Personel and the people who bring your order out to the car and how hard it was for them to accept it. Times have changed. Now I guess they have come to the realization that the really deserve it. Can you imagine one of them getting fired for accepting $50? It would have been all over the news. Now they even know how to palm the money and aren't clumsy about it. I'm sure most store managers would look the other way if an employee was Stimulated as they are trying to weather the storm. Bless them all. Everybody knows Publix costs a little more. To me, it's worth it. They are the Greatest.
