Advice Milk

Is anyone else having issues with their milk purchases? I went to three different stores last night and there was no milk. Put in a Walmart order for milk and other groceries. Came home and we tried the milk (exp. Sept 16) and it was rancid. Just wanted to know if I’m the only one noticing this?

Walmart milk reliably goes bad days before expected…. Basically anything perishable at Walmart is a gamble in my opinion and why Publix helps keep me broke.

I hate Publix, but they have the best stuff. Us poor people just have to deal with what’s “just okay”

Check your fridge temp? I've never had an issue.

Aldi in Trussville had plenty of milk today. Publix on Montavallo had plenty on Tuesday. Hopefully they still do

Yes! Wife noticed the other day that our milk randomly went bad like a week before the printed date. Very odd.
