Public is way too crowded and noisy. Constantly being bumped into by others doesn't conjure up any sense of pleasantly to me. The Walmart in The Villages is less expensive, has other things besides groceries (get it all done at once) and is THE absolute cleanest Walmart I have ever been in. We would absolutely love a Walmart down south. I like grocery stores that are 'super' stores-- have many things besides groceries. Up in the NW we shop at one of these called Fred Meyer, which is a step or two up from Walmart.
