I am a bit confused as to their thinking, but Publix will soon be requesting permission to build another grocery store on Hwy 98, about a mile east of the western end of 30A/hwy 98, which is only a few miles east of the existing Publix. Kurt said it a few years ago, "we haven't seen anything yet." Growth on hwy 98 is coming to SoWal. One day hwy 98 will be filled with traffic lights in parts of SoWal.

You took the words right out of my mouth. I would maybe frequent Fresh Market if they sold Prime Beef, but the quality is as good if not better and less expensive at Publix.
i am curious to see how full the parking lot of the FM in Destin is this winter.

Freeport could definitely support a Publix. When I lived up 331, we hit Kelley's for meats (back then, Kelley's was known for good meat - is the Kelley family even involved anymore?) and some perishables. However, Saturday mornings meant a trip to either Wal-Mart or Winn-Dixie in either DeFuniak or to Destin to load up for the week.
Rumors occasionally surface about Publix in DeFuniak, but I don't see how one could survive. My peeps in NoWal, who have become accustomed to Wal-Mart's prices, tend to freak at the bill when I bring party stuff from Publix. :roll:

Any Atlantans remember the Disco Kroger?
Yes, I remember it well! I used to live down the street from it for a while!😀

Why do we need another Publix on 98? The Watercolor and Sandestin Publix are only 15 minutes apart now? :idontno:
Very convenient and great service, though I get in occasional snits about their prices vs. their quality, especially in the produce section (which is where Toni and Hydrostan fill the void and make me happy).
Kelley's did NOT smell like urinal cakes the last time I was there and I have a super-sniffer!
