Question about Winn Dixie
We mostly shop at Walmart Neighborhood Market for the good prices. Publix every now and again for meats. I was wondering where Winn Dixie lies with prices. Are they more or less than Walmart? Are they as expensive as Publix?

It must be a tax write-off or something for them to even think they can make money over there on that corner. Not too many people shop at the Winn Dixie near Sumpter Landing so I question why they would build there?

As a general rule, WD is cheaper than Publix - more expensive than Walmart.

True - so far only one supermarket across 44. There will be more in the future. If you count Lake Deaton Plaza Publix just across the golf cart bridge that would be two, but technically there isn’t any between 44 and the Turnpike. Village Developer has bought most of the property south of 44. Trailwinds properties is not being developed by The Villages Developer.

WD has better meat so some people say. A lot of people shop several stores WD, Publix, Aldi and Walmart for their “specials”. It’s sort of a “game” which I don’t play but to each their own.

Winn Dixie decided it was better to open their next store on 466A. |

A new Sprouts Farmers Market is to be finished in January. Construction is underway at the corner of CR 466 and Buena Vista Blvd.

Thank you. This will be convenient for us. Sometimes Walmart can be frustrating to shop at. They run out of many things and it's hard to get everything there. Not wanting to spend overprice at Publix.

Sorry, like it or not, these are business decisions, not for T.V. residents to make.

I think everyone agrees that it is a business decision. But it seems like a bad decision to open in an area that is saturated with grocery stores. If I were opening a Burger King, I would not want to open it near a McDonald’s. Instead I would open it in an area where there were no fast food stores!!
