About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Publix, a regular once asked the cashier, ‘Do you ever notice how quickly those bananas turn brown?’ The cashier smiled and replied, ‘It’s almost like they have their own built-in timer.’ A few days later, an excited delivery driver approached the cashier with a box of fresh bananas. ‘These are special!’ he said. ‘They come with a warranty against browning.’ The cashier laughed and replied, ‘Now that’s customer service!’
2. At night, when everyone else had gone home, employees at Publix started noticing strange whispers coming from the dairy aisle. Nobody could make out the words, but they were definitely there—like someone softly counting something over and over again. One night, a delivery driver heard the whispering too and thought it was just an old milk carton talking. But then, as he passed by the cheese section, he swears he saw a wheel of cheddar slowly rolling down the aisle! Turns out, it was just the wind blowing through the open doors, and everyone had a good laugh the next day.
3. At Publix, a delivery driver once quipped to a fellow employee, 'I bet the milk here tastes different every day!' Curious, his colleague replied, ‘Why’s that?’
‘Because,’ he whispered conspiratorially, ‘each morning when I deliver groceries, I see an old lady filling her cart with nothing but gallons of milk. She buys so much, they must water it down!’
4. At Publix, a delivery driver once found an old, dusty accordion hidden among the canned goods. Upon discovering it, he played a few notes, and soon enough, the entire store was filled with lively music. It turned out that a regular customer had accidentally left it there years ago. From then on, every Thursday, someone from Publix would gather employees for a spontaneous impromptu dance party in the produce section.
