I think it's great you have a pickup/delivery service options. I'm sure
it's available through Publix, though it would cost a lot more.

I use the grocery store website to create and print a shopping list.
It's convenient and nice to know what they have that isn't just in the
weekly ad. Sometimes they tell you the price, sometimes they don't.
The price of meat and produce is not constant.

I've added prime filets to my shopping list. I could call and find out
the price today, I suppose. At this point I don't care. I just want
really nice, tender beef steaks.
