When I quit working I was planning on being able to golf and do more of the other amenities in the early AM.
I respect the fact that the store is less busy at those times but it is really just about the right amount of traffic for a smaller store , with smaller aisles than most, and which needs to be stocked constantly. In most stores the restocking is done overnight; that would not work here. Additionally, they do not have enough space to order enouch food to have everything you need when you need it.

I know they have had boucoup complaints so complaining verbally will not help. The only solutions for me is to allow them to make me plan my retirement around them rather than them planning their business around me as most businesses are doing, or to move on to greener pastures. I have moved on and found that things are much cheaper elsewhere as one poster noted. Even though the new Publix will be built closer to my home, I will still drive past it to get the reduction in prices and good service I get at Winn Dixie.

We would be happy if they would just put some sort of numbering system up in the parking lot so you can find your car when you come out!
