Hmm, did this come from the store or where did she get it from?

Having read all the posts since this, I can tell you that the way one of the
store employees found what aisle I needed was, she had a hand held device
and typed in an item and the device would say what aisle it was in, and also
would say when more was going to be delivered.

>> --------
>>
>> Hello, TABI Peeps,
>>
>> I was at the Grand Opening of the new Publix, and as promised, they have 
>> a
>> map and an aisle listing.  So I thought I'd take a minute and give you 
>> the
>> aisle listing and then work on a description of the map for you all in a

>> "Dairy" are located in the store.)
>>
>> Before I begin, a mini-review:
>>
>> If you love to cook, you'll love it--they have so much more than the 
>> other
>> store, including every ingredient you can think of, both basic and
>> gourmet,
>> and everything you need to cook including cookware, small appliances and
>> utensils.
>>
>> If you don't love to cook, you'll love it--they have a full pharmacy,
>> separate sections for organic, wine and gourmet cheese, expanded bakery,
>> salad bar, a hot bar with Chinese food and 4 soups-of-the-day, a vastly
>> expanded section of hot deli foods and a sandwich bar.
>>
>> They also have scores of people to help you.  Whenever we asked where an
>> item was located, the Publix staff told us and then wanted to take us to
>> the
>> aisle.
>>
>> The only downside to the new store is that the aisles are fairly narrow, 
>> a
>> little wider than 2 carts across.  And it was crowded for the Grand
>> Opening,
>> of course.  (You would think people in Tallahassee had never seen a
>> grocery
>> store
>> before!)
>>
>> If this is the Publix that is convenient for you, it will be so worth the
>> effort to relearn the layout of the store, so without further ado, the
>> aisle
>> listing.
