Publix Consumer Reviews - Page 3

SARASOTA, FLORIDA -- I like to feed my family organics. I go to a bunch of different stores to get what I need since no one store has it all. I used to buy some organic produce at Publix and I tend to check out the packaging because I want to also be aware of my footprint on the planet. Lo and Behold Publix has suddenly been selling organic produce - wrapped in thick plastic, individual pieces, and it's the kind of stuff you have to HEAT to seal.

So umm... what is leaching into the produce? How am I supposed to recycle that stuff? On the Greenwise page they talk about the best containers to use - glass first, and plastic wrap is the LEAST favored but they wrap their ORGANIC (G is for GREEN in my book) in plastic wrap! What is up with that???

WATKINSVILLE, GEORGIA -- Organic produce is never fresh. The organic salad is sold on the expiration date. I have purchased tangerines that were rotten. Publix Greenwise milk of often not as fresh as it should be. Because of its location and convenience, I opted to shop there anyway for other items. Today, their customer service department decided to single me out and humiliate me. They refused to accept my check without a valid reason. The customer service representative stated that I wrote a bad check back in 2005 and that it was already taken care of, and she was unsure why the computer system would not accept a check from me.

She went on to say that possibly I wrote a bad check at another store other than Publix, but had no other information. She grilled me asking where I had written checks and where did my check bounce. According to my bank statement I did not have any outstanding dishonored checks. Any transactions I had with other businesses was none of their concern. I will now be spending my money buying my groceries somewhere other than Publix.

CLARKSVILLE, TENNESSEE -- I can't believe that people have such a terrible life that they have nothing better to do than complain about their shopping experiences online. Have they never had a bad day at work and how would they like it if someone wrote about them..please...Coments should be addressed to the person who has caused this person to blow a gasket. This is just an opinion of my own and thought I'd get it out there for whom ever reads these things.

OALM COAST, FLORIDA -- I have been buying fish for many years and I think it's horrible, the price of your flounder. It was $11.99 then went to 12.99 then went to 13.99. Now it is 14.99 which is outrageous.
