As I mentioned in the previous post, I love to go to the publix. Yes, the chain of grocery stores that have become ubiquitous across the country. Publix gives me the convenience of shopping, but without the aggravation and stress of driving and getting stuck in line. Their selection is also much more diverse than grocery stores and I’ve learned a lot about my fellow patrons’ tastes and preferences.
Publix is a chain of grocery stores that are owned by the same company, Walmart. Publix is the kind of grocery store that has an awesome selection of wine and a great variety of beers on tap. Their store also has the best prices. They have an extensive selection of canned goods, but their selection is also pretty huge. The publix pharmacy is a separate store where you can get your prescriptions refilled.
I’m sure a lot of you reading this are thinking, “wait, how do you know what type of drugs I need? I’m a doctor, not a pharmacologist!” Publix has two pharmacies in one store, and the pharmacist is the same person across the two stores. Publix is an independent pharmacy that’s owned by Walmart.
Publix is owned by Walmart. It is where you go to get your prescriptions refilled. If you need to refill a prescription, you go to Walmart, and they can get your drugs from Publix. The pharmacy has a lot of the same pharmacy staff, but a different store. They are the Walmart pharmacy, and you go to Walmart to get prescription refills.
We’ve been to Publix before for pharmacy and have always been happy to see it. I’m not sure how many of you have ever been to Publix before either, but if you have, I’d like to know.
Publix, on the other hand, is more of a pharmacy than a place to refill prescriptions. Its main advantage is that they have pretty much everything you could ever need in one place. They also sell a ton of over-the-counter drugs and some vitamins, so you can stock up for a long trip without having to worry about the pharmacy.
It may sound like a lot of things, but Publix has many pharmacies. They have pharmacy, allergy, diabetic, and even pharmacy-esque (you know, like your local 7-11) stores. There are also a few other small pharmacies that you can walk into for a quick pick-me-up.
However Publix pharmacy is the best. They have over-the-counter medicines that you can buy for things like an allergy, diabetes, or even acne. They also sell vitamins, medications, and even prescription drugs. Like any pharmacy, they charge a $2 per prescription, which is a nice savings. There is also a large drug and alcohol store near the pharmacy that is also a safe haven from the crowds.
The pharmacy is pretty old, but it works. You can grab a cup of coffee, buy something you need, and walk away. The hours can be pretty long, which is a good thing because I tend to go at lunchtime unless I have a really important phone call. I’ve even had my dad take me there for his office hours. It’s a nice way to take yourself away from the city and take a break.
This is true for the pharmacy as well, but it has its nice little convenience features. There is a free store next door, a snack area, and a free phone. You can easily grab a snack or a free phone call on your way out.
