Publix isn't the only major grocer taking steps to control overbuying during the holidays. Winn-Dixie also announced that it's currently struggling with "supply chain challenges" but remains confident its stores can meet demand on most Thanksgiving essential items. However, the company said it was taking steps to control the inventory of one product in particular.
"We have a purchase limit of one turkey per customer to help all families have an opportunity to enjoy a traditional Thanksgiving meal this year, and we feel confident in our ability to provide the essential items our customers need for their special feast," Southeastern Grocers, the parent company for Winn-Dixie, said in a statement. "While we don't have a limit on other items throughout the store, we are politely asking customers to only purchase what they need for their families while shopping for key holiday items."
