Trailwinds Publix
 
The new Publix at Trailwinds Plaza on 466A has a sign in front. It will open at 7am on Thursday, August 27. I'm looking forward to it.

Other businesses coming to the shops alongside Publix are
Great Clips
Helen's Nails & Spa
Sunrise Asian
Marco's Pizza

I am looking forward to Publix opening in Trailwinds. I definitely will shop there instead of Colony. No golf carts!

Will Sunrise Asian be a restaurant or a food market?

The new Publix in Trailwinds is on 466A not 466.

A Starbucks is also coming to this area. It will be a free-standing store, across the street behind Circle K.

Been going to Aldi in front of the Publix since we moved here six months ago.

Generally less than 10 cars in front of the Publix making me think they had slowed down construction. This past Sunday there must have been at least 50 cars in front.

The opening of this Publix could spell death for Winn Dixie in Phinelas Place.

It appears that winn dixie does not do as well as publix. I prefer publix and shop there. Financially, as a corporation, Winn dixie does not seem as strong either. The new supermarket at magnolia plaza was supposed to be a winn dixie until they pulled out and publix went in. I have no proof for these opinions except for what I have read and heard about the two companies.

Winn Dixie is what keeps Publix prices reasonable. We moved here from the Zeppherhills area and both stores operate there quite successfully.

While a new retail presence is always appreciated, I'm not feeling like we really needed yet another Publix. That's mostly because I live in the middle of a rectangle, each corner of which will now have a Publix - Colony, Trailwinds, Grand Traverse and Lake Deaton. And, before too long, the one down by the Everglades recreation center. My wife and I would really have been happier with a new grocery presence in The Villages, such as Harris Teeter, Kroger, Wegmans or Trader Joes. Of course, a Costco would have really made us happy.

ah shuck's but someone will figure away. Have to sort of agree though.
