What store did you shop at? 5.99 per lb of bell pepper is ridiculous.

I actually think WF would be cheaper. Publix has gotten absurd.

I just don’t have time to do multiple stores and Walmart is a decent hike for a pickup order. I’ve thought about Kroger delivery, but I hear that can be even more expensive and often lacks quality in produce selections.

Pretty soon bugs will seem more appetizing and will be more affordable.

You’ll eat them and be happy to get them.

Bell peppers are a privilege, not a right.

I love Publix. I’m willing to pay a little extra for employees who are in uniform and don’t hate their job. Plus they have a good beer selection.

Their “sales” are ridiculous. Borderline unethical business practices. I go in there for months and buy the same stuff. Then one day, it’s had a price increase, but if you buy three, you get it at the previous price.

Well that's your reason. Why anyone would shop at that expensive arse store for regular groceries is beyond me.

Groceries sans eggs have skyrocketed under Trump. Sorry to hurt your fragile feelings.

On some stuff they are ridiculous. Community Coffee priced me out so I switched to Folgers breakfast Blend. Until the recent jump in coffee prices it was $13.99 for the medium sized can at Walmart. At Publix it was $21.99......for the same damn size.

ETA: At its highest Publix had the small bag of Community Coffee (only size they carry) for $18.99.

Publix prices are absolutely stupid, so there's your problem OP. "It's Trump's fault". No, you just shop like a retard. Then to boot you want to go on how expensive it is to have your groceries pre-picked out for you or delivered.

Get off your arse, go to a regular store, walk inside, and pick them out yourself and stop bitching.

Thanks.

Publix.

Funny that Walmart has their prices listed on the app, but Publix does not.

Looks like I’m done shopping at Publix.

Finally got a price through Instacart. Actually a bit cheaper online than in the store.
