I'd travel to the nearest Walmart, or buy most of my groceries at Aldi and the rest at Winn Dixie (RIP). But because I save so much at Walmart, AND because Publix is only a few blocks away and across the street, I can afford to splurge on Pub subs and prime beef burger patties and other luxuries I would otherwise never buy. I can do a whole week of regular groceries and get my "luxury food" items in the same trip.
