Winn Dixie.....a cornerstone in my hometown of Franklinton. From my childhood up to when I graduated from College, this place was a go-to from grocery shopping to picking up medicine from the pharmacy, which sadly is no longer available. Last month, I went home due to a family emergency. In the meantime, I went to do some shopping during my stay. Let's see how things went.
I went shopping there twice both during the morning time where there were less people. The store itselt is completely different from when I was there many years ago. Of course, the pharmacy no longer exists and isles have been moved around. The store itself was neat with just about each item stacked perfectly. And you can also get discounts if you use a Winn Dixie card or a phone number on file.
Just like many grocery stores, Winn Dixie did raise prices on items, especially on snacks. Why would someone want to buy nearly $7 on a bag of Doritos??? Come on!! I know inflation hit stores across the country, but still. Too much compared to before.
Other than that, I thought the visits were just fine. The next time I'm in town and in need for local shopping, this is where I'll be. read more
