Signage

    The Publix on Rosewood Drive is undergoing extensive renovations. Primarily, they are installing a pharmacy, which they never had before. They have made a great deal of progress and no doubt will be opening the pharmacy section (the store as a whole hasn't closed a bit except for normal closing hours and holidays) within a few weeks. The weird thing is that they put up new signs saying "Publix Food & Pharmacy"... and then blocked out the pharmacy part. This strikes me as conspicuously crazy. Why not just leave the old signs until the pharmacy is ready to open? Why not add "Coming soon!" instead of blacking it out. Seems a bit Stalinist: "Well, we had the new sign, so we might as well put it up." Not the most significant issue in the world at this time, I'll agree; just struck me as very odd. (Also, they moved the gluten-free ghetto even farther toward the back, so I guess I'm just crotchety about the whole deal.:))
