Beautiful store. It is clean and has a good selection of groceries. Even offered a few vegan products. Produce looks fresh. The checkout lines were short and moved along quickly. Using my phone number instead of a Winn-Dixie card is efficient. So a perfect place to shop? Well not really......
I saw a guy working on his car in the parking lot. On most visits the staff seem so angry it makes me want to avoid this location. Recently, I was listening to an employee speak very loudly about how unfairly things are and he was going to tell everyone that would listen including HR. He was surrounded by shoppers.
The checkout staff while quick, are not very friendly. They just want the transaction completed and for you to leave.
On another visit, I used the self serve checkout and standing there was an employee staring at me,
with an intent look, as I placed groceries in the bag after scanning them. Did I do something wrong? She didn't offer a smile or any help. Maybe I shouldn't ask it might upset her.
I said hello to a staff member in a name tag, dress shirt and a tie. His response......no response.....looked away.
This store looks likes it wants to compete with Publix. The prices of groceries are certainly as expensive as Publix. However, this Winn-Dixie falls short of the friendly faces and helpful services that one should expect from Paying Higher prices.
I think we will drive by this location and seek out the competition. read more
