Publix WC is Packed - Combat Grocery Shopping Time Has Arrived

[Matt J]

Oh yea, we're there! Went to grab lunch at Wild Olives with the pooches and even though there was 3 tables available, they were too slammed to seat me soooo I went down to see Ali at Chans and guess what! I got a seat and a fabulous lunch! We love visitors but I wish there was a list of people who took care of locals "in-season" as well as off-season.

Are you sure they weren't just ignoring "that lady with the dressed up rats"?

I like to do strategic grocery shopping during season - no cart!

Throw it all in one of the reusable bags and you can easily maneuver around all the tourons who feel the need to shop in groups, talk on the phone, and leave their carts in the middle of the aisle!

The locals call Wine World at WaterColor (just realized that's WWW) as Chan's.

I'm afraid the ferris wheel and merry-go-round are more thrilling these days and more in line with my snowbirdish age. Thanks for the laugh, though. You won't see me lining up for the freebies on the beach with the springbreakers at La Vela. I did get BOGO cranberry juice at Publix today.

Score!

Clearly a case of mistaken identity, SWGB ;-);-) By the way, haven't I seen you sporting glasses lately? I'll check at Publix next time I'm there to see what style reading glasses they carry. How strong do you need them??? :rofl: Perhaps if Publix gave away a free lunch at La Vela for every $50 spent I might make it over there. I'd have to think about it since that La Vela group shot looks more crowded than Publix on a Saturday Summer afternoon -- Something I avoid in my advanced wiser years.

Spring Breakers might move in and out of Publix better and quicker if there was a "Grocery Shopping List for Spring Breakers". The list would name grocery item and what aisle it is on. There could be different categories, different time limits, number of people stuffed into beach rental, etc. A host could greet them at the door and give them the list. What would be on the 15 minute list? Do you know what aisle it is on? (Tip: Only good for WC Publix as they are all configured different and I get confused going between the various stores!!)
