Publix is continuously stocking shelves and if an item is out you can always find an employee who will happily check in the back for you.

I shop at Publix for quality, quantity, and customer service. Just one person's opinion.
What Publix do you shop in? There have been complaints on this forum about the Publix at Colony being too small and not stocking more of each item to accommodate the winter season. Since I only go there occasionally, I wouldn't know. I stay away because the Colony parking lot is a total zoo.

As for Sweetbay in Pinellas, every time we've been in there, it's been virtually empty. We've gone maybe ten times since it opened. Right now, you can shop there at the normally busiest times for a grocery store and not be overwhelmed.

I went there with a prescription for our dog. The pharmacist told me the store is really struggling.
