My local Publix and every other one I’ve ever been to has always had a water button attached to the Sprite or 7-Up dispenser. But recently, my local Publix removed it. Now, whenever I go shopping, I can’t go in get a cup and fill it with water to have a drink while I shop anymore. It has always been completely free to just get a cup and fill it with water, they even told me I could do that and that’s how I found out about it years ago. Seems like they’ve changed their minds now
Water? You mean that stuff that goes in toilets?
Next you’re going to tell me it has what plants crave.
Don’t be foolish! Of course, we have Gatorade for that.
Water? I don’t drink water. Fish fuck in it.
monster is clearly superior in every way, it gives you the jutters, tastes toxicly sweet, is bubbly, and most importantly isn’t flat.
It has what plants crave!
I would be willing to bet that the water dispenser arm has snapped off. And I know from experience, coke takes FOREVER to send a tech out to fix their machines.
Came to say the exact same thing!
Stupid plastic parts.
That sucks. As a workaround, a cup of ice is just a cup of water waiting to happen.
Publix needs more money to support their anti-democratic values and candidates. And no, its not just the Publix heiress who helped support January 6th. https://www.americandemocracyscorecard.org/publix-super-markets/#full-report
Fuckin… Goddamnit. Thanks for letting me know.
its not just the Publix heiress who helped support January 6th
Yes, let’s not forge the FBI and GOP🫡
Next you think you deserve access to the free sun!
These peasants really getting greedy
Let them drink Coke!
You have to wonder what idiot thought this was a good idea. It just means people will grab a soda and not pay for it.
Or it broke?
That’s probably their argument. They probably thought that by removing the water option, people won’t be able to sneak soda and pretend they were getting free water.
Really sucks for us non soda drinkers. Maybe they think “if we remove the free water, people will spend money on a soda.” Nah. Not me.
Yeah it’s not a good solution at all. Would have been better to have a separate place for water to serve both purposes. I see a lot of places that will have a glass pitcher dispenser on the side of a soda dispenser just for water.
The water usually tastes better from these, anyway. Not polluted by the sugary soda/carbonation that comes from the same dispenser.
Would also be obvious that someone isn’t getting free soda and pretending to get water since it’s a totally different place.
That’s a crime bro!!!
Call the police!
I can’t go in get a cup and fill it with water to have a drink while I shop anymore.
You can if you’re ballsy enough.
because, if it’s in florida, the water was unfiltered and tastes like literal shit which is why nobody wanted it
What a bootlicker take
No, no, shit water, not boot water
I’ve never seen a Publix with a drink dispenser. Where are these usually?
Usually at the Deli! think there is a combo for a pub sub, drink and chips if I’m not mistaken
Oh good point, never been to the delis myself. I didn’t realize they had a mini food court, thought it was just a place to buy meats or their sandwiches.
I had look up what a Publix is. Never heard of a grocery stord providing refreshments to shoppers. Is the pop free?
Nah, it’s a lunch/deli situation, where you can order a sandwich or get a salad, so they also have soda fountains like this.
what is the clear thing in the center?
Ice dispenser.
