Publix Stores DECAYED Products/"Accidental OVERCHARGES"

Publix complaint

Write your Review »

I am a careful shopper and was proud to show my northern visitors what produce was available at Publix. However, 1970's are history and so are Publix Produce products. If, CUT FRUIT BOWLS or SALAD, look closely to find DECAY consistently. Fruit and vegetables are constantly bruised, old, nicked or simply rotting in the display (!) while ULTRA PRICES continue to escalate without justification. Let's take out those profit sheets and bonus breakdowns for management for the last five years so we can see why we pay such exorbitant costs.

Alleged "system stocking updates" haven't been made to many items which means unless you WATCH CLOSELY, your efforts to by whatever are being charged full prices or not given 2-4-1 pricing. OOOPPS! Just another dependable Publix feature to gouge their customers while middle & upper management AND stockholders pocket your hard-earned money.

Rose is correct. I have worked for Publix for eight years and my husband for 12 years, and we both understand the importance of freshness and ensuring that prices are what they should be. That is why Publix has insilled the PUBLIX PROMISE, in the event that your products do not ring up correctly, you would get that item for free. We don't purposely ring up items to "gouge" your money. When we find the mistake it is to be fixed IMMEDIATELY. Plus I know for a fact that Publix is adament about freshness of products and in the produce dept, produce has a time limit. We certainly wouldn't sell "bad" items. What it sounds like to be is you had a bad experience and now just want to talk Publix down. You need to talk to a manager and get it resolved instead of whining about it like a baby.

My husband works at Publix and I know for a fact they have very stringent rules about freshness dates and even throw away all the rotisserie chickens if they are not sold in three hours. Inspectors check regularly so I don't know where you are getting this from.

If you think there is something wrong, you should report it to the store manager.They take complaints very seriously
