Publix Unleashing the Ultimate Grocery Store "Happy Hour" Experience!

-


 Where Shopping Meets Happy Hour!

LAKELAND, Fla. – Hold onto your shopping carts, folks, because Publix is about to revolutionize the way you stock up on milk and eggs. 

Forget your run-of-the-mill grocery runs—Lakeland’s upcoming Publix flagship store is set to be the ultimate shopping experience, complete with burritos, beer, and a social scene that may just rival your favorite bar.

The Publix Party Plaza?
Construction is well underway at the 55,000-square-foot Lake Miriam location, and from the sound of it, this isn’t just a grocery store—it’s a lifestyle. 

Shoppers will soon be able to waltz in for a gallon of milk and leave with a craft beer in hand.

“We’re expanding our deli offerings,” said a top Publix representative. “Fresh burritos, nachos, pizza, and pasta will be available. And, of course, we’re introducing ‘Pours’—a space where you can grab a smoothie, tea, coffee, beer, or wine.”

Yes, you read that correctly. You can now get buzzed while picking out bananas.

Grocery Shopping or Friday Night Plans?
With a café seating area and a bar, Publix is making it easier than ever to turn an innocent grocery run into a full-blown social event. 

According to company reps, the goal is to create a “destination” where people can grab lunch, catch up with friends, or unwind after work—preferably near the dairy aisle.

“This isn’t just a place to shop,” an insider revealed. “It’s a place to be. Need to pick up chicken for dinner? 

Why not grab a craft beer while you decide between drumsticks and thighs? Grocery shopping has never been this exciting.”

From Cart to Cocktail
This will be the first store of its kind in Polk County and the fourth in Florida, following successful launches in Tampa, Wesley Chapel, and Wellington. 

If the buzz from those locations is any indication, Lakeland is about to become the social hotspot nobody saw coming.

So, will this new Publix format forever change the way we think about grocery shopping? 

Will "Meet me at Publix" become the new "Meet me at the bar"? 

Only time will tell.

One thing is certain: If you end up spending three hours at Publix without actually buying groceries, you’re not alone.

Please Help Find These Forgotten Girls Held at Male Juvenile Prison for Over a Year!

  MY MOST IMPORTANT STORY  Dozens of Forgotten Little Girls Held at Male Juvenile Prison for Over a Year! Welcome to the Sunshine State, where the palm trees sway, the alligators lurk, and the legislative process makes Kafka look like a life coach!  Florida House Bill HB21. Not just a compensation bill but possibly a 20 million dollar "Stay out of Jail Free" card for some folks. This is a bill that does some good—but also trips over its own shoelaces, falls down a staircase, and lands on a historical oversight so big, it might as well have its own zip code! An oversight that overlooks what I consider to be its most vulnerable victims! The Setup: Justice with a Catch HB21 was enacted on July 1, 2024 to compensate victims of abuse from two male juvenile detention facilities located in Florida, Dozier and Okeechobee.  It says, “Hey, survivors of abuse between 1940 and 1975, here’s some compensation for the horrific things you endured!” Sounds good, right? Like a ...

Here's A New HOA Rule Dictating What You Can Do Inside Your Home

HOA Overreach: When Your Own Home Isn’t Really Your Own The joys of homeownership—the American dream!  That magical place where you can paint the walls any color you like, blast your music (within reason), and enjoy the simple pleasure of—wait, never mind..... Turns out, your HOA might have something to say about what you do inside your own four walls. Case in point: A longtime homeowner, who has peacefully lived in his residence for 25 years, was blindsided when his HOA suddenly banned smoking inside individual homes.  That’s right—after a quarter-century of no issues, he was informed that lighting up indoors was no longer an option.  The new rule, passed at the HOA’s annual meeting by a majority vote, now restricts smoking to a designated outdoor area. Now, while some might see this as a health-conscious decision, the homeowner—whose wife is a smoker—sees it as an unfair overreach.  In a letter to a local publication, he expressed frustration, writing, “I’ve live...

Postal Police Stuck Behind ‘Keep Out’ Signs While Mailmen Face Muggers: You Can’t Make This Stuff Up!!

As crime against letter carriers surges, one would think that America’s armed, uniformed Postal Police might be hitting the streets to protect our mail.  Instead, they’re still glued to their post office entrances like sentries guarding Fort Frownmore.  Why?  Because since 2020, the Postmaster General decreed they must “protect postal property” only—meaning, they currently serve as glorified lobby bouncers rather than actual roaming guardians of the mailstream. “ They’re robbing letter carriers, they’re sticking a gun in a letter carrier’s face and they’re demanding arrow keys, ” laments Frank Albergo , president of the National Postal Police Union and a Postal Police Officer himself.  An "arrow key" in the context of the Post Office is a specialized, universal key that postal workers use to access various locked mail receptacles, including collection boxes, apartment mailboxes, and cluster boxes. Albergo isn’t exaggerating—research shows over 100 physical assaul...
