Review from Yimin W

I like this store and shop here every week. This review is based on my recent return experience at the ************************************* in ****, **. I bought a pack of yeast a few days ago, and when I got home, I realized it had expired in 2021! I went to customer service today, but the representative kept insisting that the product wasnt from their store. She acted as though I had bought the yeast somewhere else and was trying to return it here. In the end, I got a refund, but she added that they wouldnt issue another refund in the future, as if I were a repeat offender. Unbelievable. I checked the reviews on ****** and found quite a few negative comments about the staff, and it seems like management doesnt care. ***, most of the employees are nice, but some of them just don't care about the customers.Publix Super Markets Corporate Office Response

We live in ***** zip code and there are 3 Publix within 5 mile distance. No other supermarkets close by. After the ****** Hurricane the prices are so expensive. They are charging $5 a pound for chicken and its worst for beef. Orange juice $7. Eggs $12. We are without electricity and we are forced to go there and have to pay such expensive prices. We are a family of four and it is impossible to keep up with these prices and the monopoly in our area especially after being hit by a storm. So sadPublix Super Markets Corporate Office Response

Don't hire people if they don't like others or they can't help the customers with their needs. I won't be shopping at your LLC or corporation no more. I didn't like to be told be step out line because asking how to change or update my number. I had my three girls with me plus I couldn't still figure it out. So I left with no groceries.

This company should be ashamed of the price gouging you do for your customers! You charge way more for items I find in other stores. My cigarette brand is $5 dollars more for a pack at your store! A box of ******* redenbachers natural lightly salted popcorn, for a box with 6 bags, is the price of a 12 bag box, at *******. Your prices on everything is just plain robbery! Even an employee told me, that he doesn't know where all the money goes, because you sure don't pay them much! Your stores are the epitome of corporate greed, and padding billionaires pockets! Again shame on you, and I will tell everyone I know, to not shop at your stores.Publix Super Markets Corporate Office Response

BBB Review ID #******: *************************. We received the above Review on 9/12/2024. Thank you for your feedback regarding our pricing. We believe that some retailers employ deep-discount pricing to convince customers that the only important factor in deciding where to shop is price. At Publix, we feel that the value that we offer our customers is not simply the price of an individual item but the quality of the entire shopping experience. Our hope is that when you shop with us, you'll find a wide range of high-quality items, fresh perishable products, clean and organized shopping environments, friendly associates with great product knowledge, and easy check-out and carry-out services at competitive prices. We encourage you to shop our weekly ad, extra savings flyer, and digital coupon offers each week, as we have a wide variety of popular items at great prices, including lots of BOGOs that can help create meal solutions and help your family save money. We genuinely appreciate your patronage and are committed to providing you with a positive shopping experience. If you have any further questions, suggestions, or feedback, please don't hesitate to reach out to us directly. We have shared your comments with the appropriate areas for future review.Review from Frank C

My name is ***** and I shop occasionally at publix. With in the last 18 plus month's prices have gone up quite significantly in your places of business. Slowly but surely over the last 18 mo months I shop less and less at your establishment. Before Covid19 the price of a loaf of 5 grain bread about 12 to 14 inches long coast about $ 2.29 to #2.49 per loaf. Today the loaf is smaller about 10 inches or so and prices at $ 3.89 that's a $1.40 more which totals a percentage of 64 percent within less than 2 years. That's just 1 example of hundreds, records show a 40 percent increase in profits. If that's not price gouging I don't know what is. I have a large family and many many friends and the majority of them feel the same. I know wedges and cost of goods went up but CORPERATE GREED ??? I don't have enough time that phenomenon... I bet dimes to donuts whe your company lays off its from the bottom to maybe lower management. I will keep doing what I've been doing and spread the word about your company greed...Your Welcome *****Publix Super Markets Corporate Office Response

Great place to shop! Lots of locations in *************, the stores are roomy, very clean, well lighted and highly organized. Great prices if you buy items that are on sale. Only suggestion I would have is to standardize all stores, so all departments/items are in the same relative locations.Publix Super Markets Corporate Office Response

BBB Review ID #******: *************************. We received the above concern from the BBB on 08/22/2024. ****************** has not previously reached out to the Publix Corporate Office with her concerns. We apologize for her disappointment with our Club Publix program, it is never our intent to disappoint or offend our customers. We understand there will always be opportunities to improve. So, we thank ****************** for taking the time to share her thoughts and comments with us. Feedback like hers is always appreciated and will be kept in mind when planning future publications. Regarding her pricing concerns, we constantly monitor our prices and always try to give our customers the best value possible. We position ourselves as customer advocates by challenging cost increases from suppliers and making sure such increases are justified. We have been successful in delaying some cost increases, reducing the amounts of some increases, and working with our suppliers to create more weekly specials, but on occasion, it may become necessary to change prices due to any number of factors. This may be due to an increase or decrease in the cost of goods, a response to competitive activity, or a change in the supply source for an item. Our desire is to always provide the best overall value for our customers by offering competitive prices, a wide range of items, high-quality products, a clean shopping environment, and friendly and knowledgeable associates. Customer feedback is crucial to us as it helps us better understand their needs and concerns. We're grateful for the opportunity to serve ****************** and her family, and we're committed to continuously improving to meet her expectations.
