You must be one of those internet addicts that are paid to promote Publix.

No doubt him (with all 5,095 of his different accounts and names) and Thundarr457 are most definitely on the Publix payroll!!!

OH YES, Walmart is so so "lousy," that's why it's the largest and most successful retailer in the world, a position it has retained for more than 20 years!

This is always what happens when people move to Florida. Compare it to where they used to live. We have lots of options maybe it’s your location. Make the best of what you have, this isn’t Texas and will never be Texas.

Yeah, that is not the way retailers measure success. They measure it by annual revenue/sales.
Walmart has been at the top for decades, and continues to be.
