Amazon is reportedly planning a new, low-cost grocery chain

Amazon is reportedly planning to open dozens of grocery stores in major US cities, which will be under different branding from its Whole Foods chain. The first location may open in Los Angeles before the end of this year, while it's signed leases for at least two other stores, according to Wall Street Journal sources.

[...] Amazon already has a grocery delivery service, and the reported chain would expand its retail footprint beyond Whole Foods, 4-Star stores and self-service Amazon Go outlets. It's not clear whether the planned stores will also be cashierless, though the report suggests they'll have a strong focus on customer service and pick-up options.

    Publix has the best store brand ice creams I can remember, especially the Black Swamp Raspberry Cheesecake one.

    The only time I got ice cream from ALDI is when they were clearing out the Christmas-themed peppermint bark one in December for like $0.75/1.5q. And it was good.

    No Publix here...but we have Wegmans if you want a wide selection and friendly people (often wins "best place to work" award).
