Need Food Shopping Advice
Hi,

i will be staying in a villa in championsgate for two weeks in June, where is the best place to do food shopping in that area. I want to go somewhere that offers a wide selection so we dont have to find other places.

Thanks

We used Publix whilst staying near Championsgate in October, not cheap but quality is good

Agree, prefer Publix to Wal-Mart for general food shopping

Publix is the best supermarket by far.

Publix all the way.

However we do dive into Walmart to get suncreams, bottled water and Aussie Shampoo (not for me I'm bald!)

For those things they are much cheaper.

Publix every time for us for fresh produce. We always stay in a villa and have breakfast and dinner out but always need lunches and snacks.

Although we always feel the need to walk our Longhorn dinners off by pushing a red cart round Super Target.

Everyone should experience the joys of Walmart once though if only for the Walmartians.

Mick. I really wish I had managed to take a picture of the Guy we spotted in Walmart with a tiny monkey on his head. Unbelievable.

Here's a few to get started. You don't see these in Publix.

As others have stated publix is great. They do freshly made bagettes that are amazing. We get some of those, some big bags of crisp and ice cream then have them round the pool
