Where do you do your grocery shopping?

:earsboy:
We use Winn Dixie..10 min. away. That shopping
center has all we need.

Anything is better than Goodings!

Publix over by the outlet stores. They have Boar's Head deli meats and cheeses which we prefer.
 
We also go to the Publix. You can go to the onsite store, but on our last trip, we bought a case of beer at Publix and had to go down to the store for a 6 pack of bud light and it was $12.50! OUCH. I might have been better to get a cab to go get another case!

Plan well so you don't have to go to the onsite store! Or drink less beer and more water!
 
We always stop at the Albertson's on our way to OKW from the airport. It's so convenient, right off 417. One time we forgot, then had to go out for groceries after we checked in, which we didn't enjoy. Once we check in, we like to unpack and start vacationing!
 

Does anyone happen to know which grocer has the best vegetarian selections? Soy milk?
 
We shop the Publix by the outlets. I like the produce, meat, and especially the bakery! The key lime pie is a must every trip. :)

I get soy millk at Publix. They also have a health food aisle with plenty of natural foods. I'm not sure what kind of vegeterian selections other than soy milk you are looking for.

ooooh....

Forgot about the Key Lime pie! It is worth the trip to Publix for that alone.

Good to know. Thanks!
 
We are arriving after midnight and normally use Tiffany. I'm not sure if it will be worth it this trip, however, since I can't imagine any of the stores will be open late enough to use the grocery store stop.

I'd like to use Magical Exp, but my sister came in late last month and they waited in line for an hour and then on the bus even longer for it to fill up before they'd leave for the hotel. Since we arrive so late, I'm thinking it could take a long time to fill a bus!

i just had Goodings deliver and it was perfect, maybe a little more but everything arrived and no complaintes. I also ordered a birthday cake from them and it was the most ornate cake I have seen!! I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

They do very good cakes and have a better deli section than some of the other local stores. ::yes::
 
We drive down and buy Propel and Flavored water for the trip. I also bring some snacks from home. When we get there we normally stop at Gooding's across from Hotel Plaza Blvd. just because it's right there. We get milk and maybe eggs, bagels, bread, and turkey bacon, yogurt, etc. This year we may go to Publix to compare and to do something different. We rarely cook during our vacation. If we do it's a frozen pizza or a good breakfast in the morning.
 
We shop at the screen door general store at the boardwalk. The prices are about the same as we pay at home and they have what we need.
 
We use the Albertson's off of Orange Blossom Trail. We are from NJ and just another tip, you can use your Acme card to utilize any of the in store sales, Albertson's is Acme's parent company.
 
I use both Winn-Dixie on Apopka-Vineland near the Crossroads, and the Publix at Xentury City (near Gaylord Palms). Just wanted to add that I looked at the Publix ads on line and discovered I could order a holiday dinner (under Deli) and ordered our Christmas turkey that way. It did take them a bit to find the order, but helped our Christmas dinner a lot. I just did the green bean casserole, and our particular sweet potato recipe and it was *our Christmas, but in Florida* I know we visit way too often because I can tell when they've rearranged the aisles at the Publix! We also appreciate the Boar's Head deli. They even have lebanon bologna, a family favorite :)
 
Having shopped at Goodings on many previous trips(knowing their prices wer a bit on the high side but opting for convenience and high end selection), I trekked over there in November to pick up wine and snacks. We all thought the store was maybe getting ready to shut its doors for good because it looked such a mess! Shelves partially stocked, limited brand choices, etc. And the prices were not just a little on the high side...they were ridiculous. Won't make that mistake again.
 
I believe they just filed for bankruptcy. Sounds like they've been having problems lately.
