About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One day, a regular asked the cashier, ‘Why does Publix always seem so empty on weekends?’ The next weekend, everyone noticed it was true—until they realized why. It turned out that every Saturday night, a delivery driver would sneak in and stock up on free groceries for his entire neighborhood. By Sunday morning, everything was gone, leaving Publix empty for everyone else. No one ever caught him, but from then on, whenever someone mentioned how deserted Publix looked on weekends, everyone just smiled and shook their heads with a knowing wink.
2. Have you ever noticed how quiet it gets in Publix after midnight? A delivery driver once joked that maybe they’re all secretly vampires. One night a cashier overheard two customers whispering about strange lights above the cheese section. Turns out, it was just an old security camera reflecting off a shopping cart. Since then, everyone jokes that Publix has its very own ghost cheesemonger.
3. At closing time one night, a security guard heard an eerie humming coming from inside Publix's deserted aisles. Curious, he followed the sound and found an old radio playing softly in the dairy section. Turns out, it was just an enthusiastic milkman who left it on accidentally before heading home for the evening. The next day, everyone had a good laugh over coffee, and Publix became known as the store with the ‘late-night DJ’.
4. At dawn, when most supermarkets are just opening their doors, a delivery driver pulled up to Publix and saw something strange: the parking lot was full of shopping carts, but no customers were around. Curious, he walked inside and found all aisles neatly stocked—except for one lone cart near the cheese section. Written on it in marker was a note: ‘Sorry for the mess, will clean up later—a neighbor.’
