Publix items are much higher than Walmart's. We used Publix and Walmart and found that Walmart was consistently about 30-40 cents lower, for the same items.

We prefer the Neighborhood Walmart across from Colony Plaza, on Heald Way off of 466A. They have covered pick-up, which is great on sunny or rainy days as the covered bays protect you. During one pick-up, at Publix, it was raining heavily. I felt bad for the person putting the groceries in our trunk, as she was getting poured on, plus our trunk got soaked.
