I almost always shop at the smallest Publix near me (there are 6, maybe 7 within a mile or two) and I haven't seen clothing in mine.  I'll shop at one of the larger stores soon. 

@millieshops

Wow, at least 6 stores within 2 miles.  Talk about overload.

Maybe it is the Publixs near the beach that sells clothing.  I am from Lakeland, FL and have never been in a store that sells clothing.

Publix at Grove Park Shopping Center in Lakeland has a display of beach coverups and dresses. They look like they’d be comfortable to wear around the house.

@Sweet_Serenity

Thanks for sharing! They have some pretty things and now I’m more tempted than I already was!

I haven't seen any clothing in either of the 2 Publix markets in my small beach town.

@lulu1lol   6 Publix -   and one Winn-Dixie plus Whole Foods and 3 supermarket-sized speciality stores .... those are just the stores I pass routinely.  By the way Costco is also within that 2 mile circle as are several smaller produce and ethnic markets. 

I know there are lots of jokes about every corner in Florida having a drugstore on it.  That's also close to true, but supermarkets aren't far behind.  I wonder what we should make of that!
