Yeah, I can't remember the last time they rearranged the Publix where I
shop. It's been at least three years.

It's annoying, to say the least. I doubt they'll bother rearranging
this store since they're building a new one, about 20,000 sq. feet
larger. (I really don't think we need a bigger Publix, JMHO.)

When I asked why, I was told it was because of the parking lot. True,
there is a county ordinance against cutting down live oak trees so the
parking lot IS a bit of a pain. Yet for the new one, they just razed
everything flat. Maybe there were no live oaks, although they are
everywhere down here so I doubt it. I wonder how they got around it.
And why does the building need to be that much larger? Oh, they're
adding a salad bar. That must be one hell of a salad bar!
