Publix

[kingphil]

Wanted to do an online shop for collection at the Davenport Publix when we arrive in a few weeks time.

However, website suggests that it cannot service customers outside the US, so wondered if anyone knew of a workaround (apart from using Walmart instead), as this Publix is right next to where we have to collect the keys for the villa.

Go in via instacart see if there's a promo code first just use the zip code of your accomadation
Although curbside pick up as they call it isn't yet available in all stores

Davenport is a very extensive area with a number of Publix so I'm not sure exactly where you are collecting keys. Basically anywhere on the US27 from the 192 down to Posner and across to Championsgate.

We always stay at Highgate Park (which is classed as Davenport) and the one at Berry Town Center is only a 2 minute drive away. Been part of our holiday tradition for years to unpack, have a decent coffee then head to Publix for our first shop. We also buy the first night's dinner there - cooked chicken and salads etc. - as we can't face a restaurant dinner when our body clocks say midnight.

We think Publix is a far more relaxing shopping experience than Walmart anyway.

Sorry can't help on your question but our first shop tells us we're "back"

You would have to use a VPN, to "pretend| you're based in USA. You can use a paid one or try one that is browser based, I have used tunnelbear on chrome

It's on the S Old Lake Wilson Road and Osceola Polk Line Road.

Think we might just nip into the store to get a few essential supplies once we have collected keys and then carry onto the villa.

You can always do a more "intense" shopping experience at either Walmart (the newish one right at the top of North Old Lave Wilson Road) or at the newly refurbished Super Target at Rolling Oaks. The latter is trying to make itself look like Macy's. Got lost a bit last December.

Good to hear Rolling Oaks Super Target has been refurbished. Favourite of my clan and good for a stroll round after one of the Rolling Oaks restaurants. Is it bigger or just a change of layout?

Change of layout but seemed bigger when I was in last month took me an age to find a couple things Iwanted for the villa

We don't think that it's been extended externally but there's certainly a new wines & spirit area within the store but inside a new wall with separate doors accessed from inside.

The merchandising layout has been substantially changed though. We were last there early December and the whole rear towards the centre was "seasonal" so that's been re-merchandised now I guess.

We too always push a red cart round after Longhorn and often don't buy anything.

Ditto the red cart post-Longhorn or Millers but sadly never the "don't buy anything" bit! If only.
