Why does Publix move the cream cheese every single time

I swear the folks at my Publix on Cleveland Ave in Atlanta must get paid by the hour to rearrange dairy. Three weeks ago cream cheese was by the butter, now it's over by the yogurt and I walked the whole aisle twice like a fool. Ran into my neighbor Mrs. Patterson who said she gave up and just asks the stocker now, but then you gotta hope they even know. Has anyone else noticed their store moving stuff around just to mess with you?

The Publix on Ponce in Atlanta does the exact same thing with the cream cheese. I walked the whole dairy section twice last Wednesday before I found it tucked next to the cottage cheese. It drives me nuts because I just want to grab my bagel toppings and get out, not play hide and seek with a block of Philadelphia. You'd think they would keep it in one spot long enough for us regular folks to remember where it is.

Used to think it was just me being forgetful but nope, they definitely move stuff on purpose. Saw a stocker once and he shrugged and said corporate tells them where things go.
