We shop at both Publix and at the Winn Dixie in Wildwood. Publix is a great store, where you can find almost everything you need...almost. Have found items at Winn that were not available at Publix. Also, the produce guys are great at Winn - they will peel and cut up huge butternut squash if you just ask. The fish counter is decent, and they will steam your crablegs/shellfish, etc., if you ask. If you need sugar free cakes or cookies, the bakery department at Winn has a better selection than Pubix. Ditto the sugar free ice creams and novelties. I have no idea what the new Winn Dixie at Pinnellas will be like. My only real complaint about Winn Dixie is their deli department. They carry an extremely limited selection of Dietz & Watson (every bit as good as Boar's Head) cold cuts, which is about the only thing I've every mentioned to the store manager.
