1. Publix is cheaper than Walmart if you learn how to shop there with coupons and with their weekly sale items.
2. The checkout line is ALWAYS short.
3. The cashiers and bag/buggy boys/girls are the best!
4. I have never met a mean or rude employee at Publix...every single one of them are great and seem to love their job.
5. If you can't find something, if you ask an employee, they take you to the item instead of just tell you where it is (don't know if this is protocol, but they have always done it for me).
6. They help you to your car and load your groceries for you and won't accept a tip. Or, if you're like me, I had Briggs strapped to me in the carrier yesterday and was having trouble getting the items from my buggy onto the checkout counter. So what does the cashier do..he comes from behind the register and put my groceries up there for me. And then the little bag boy took them and loaded them all in my car for me!
7. You get to try the meat you're buying at the deli...they always ask if I want a piece when they are slicing it. I've also heard they offer your kids a cookie if you go to the deli, but my kid is too small...so that's just what I've heard.
8. They have awesome programs and magazines you can sign up for online that get mailed to your house with coupons in them.
9. Every three to four weeks they publish Advantage Buy Flyers with additional store coupons in them that you can combine with manufacturer coupons. (just ask for them at the customer service desk)
10. They have excellent, top of the notch, customer service! I LOVE PUBLIX!
It wasn't hard to come up with my top 10 reasons on why I love Publix, and they aren't necessarily in ranking order of my favorites. I also wanted to share what came in the mail for me yesterday. I had signed up for the Publix baby club online when I became pregnant. They sent me all kinds of goodies...well yesterday I received this sweet letter (see below) saying congrats on our new baby (b/c I had told them when my due date was), and they wanted to know what Briggs name is and what is actual birthday is. They are going to send us helpful info that coordinates with is age and more coupons.
And to top it off...they also included a "no postage necessary" envelope for me to return the little form with Briggs name and birthday on it. That's because Publix ROCKS and they care about their customers.
So, if you're wanting some free stuff and good reading info..go here and sign up for all the goodies (top of the page, under clubs and programs). It includes wine guides, family, greenwise, baby, pets, etc... Just sign up and they send magazines and coupons to your house for free that only add to your savings.
