Some Publix grocery store locations sell dry ice. If your local Publix sells it, you should be able to find it near the regular bags of ice by the service center.
Does Publix Sell Dry Ice?
Publix grocery stores carry Penguin Brand dry ice at some locations, a company representative said.
Dry ice at Publix is priced around $1.50 per pound and is usually located near the other large bags of ice by the customer service desk, the representative said.
To find out if your local Publix carries dry ice, you can contact the store or search online.
To search online, head to the Publix website, select Store Locator and select a location near you, then search for dry ice. If dry ice is in stock, the website should list it as available.
Dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide and can be used to keep food cold (e.g., during shipping) or to create a visually dramatic scene for concerts, plays, etc. Keep in mind, the U.S. Department of Transportation classifies dry ice as a hazardous material and it can potentially harm skin.
