Publix

Customers at select Publix locations in Florida are now able to scan their own groceries at self-checkout lanes.

Publix is a popular grocery store in Florida that carries many traditions, but there is one heavy-hitter that has remained with the grocery chain since the very beginning: the weight scale. 

Tiffani Borders has made it her mission to teach her 9-year-old daughter Amaria that even though she may be wheelchair bound, nothing can stop her. That's why when she walked into a local Publix in Lutz, it was instant excitement when she saw a shopping cart designed specifically for her daughter.

It's "where shopping is a pleasure," but for one couple, Publix is so much more: It's where their love story began.

One Korean War veteran was recently surprised with a celebration in honor of his military service at the Florida Publix, a surprise that he described as “one of the best days” of his life.

For many Floridians, it’s a holiday TV tradition. We're getting a first look at the new Publix holiday commercial and, like those in the past, some may watch it and shed a tear or two. 

Publix has zoomed past Trader Joe's for the title of America's favorite supermarket, tying for first place with Wegmans.

It's 45,000 square feet, mostly empty right now. But as we watch, employees will take 40 truckloads of groceries to fill this brand new Publix in less than 14 days -- and that's just the start.

It’s not snow falling from the sky that’s a harbinger of the holidays here in Florida. Instead, crying while watching commercials for a grocery chain has become a sure sign the season is upon us.

And you thought your grocery list was long -- there's a sprawling, 27-acre Publix warehouse in Lakeland where the grocery ‘lists' are orders from hundreds of individual Publix stores.
