As do I and where I live, Publix is significant, not a “picked cherry” for some silly online argument.
Their profit margins ARE a significant problem here in Florida and for me and those around me.
Have your 1.5% mysterious average if you like.
The ONLY place with CLOSE to 1.5% is Aldi’s which gets most of our business now.
Walmart’s at 3.4% last quarter in Florida, higher locally where I am.
