“I wonder if Publix will let me buy a bag of their potato wedges,” she tells viewers.

In the next shot, she embarked on a mission to find out.

The worker said she would have to check and then disappeared into the back.

When she returned, she indicated to Shawndrea that she would be able to purchase the wedges by the bag.

“Oh, we can do it?” the TikToker responded, surprised.

The worker handed over a big bag of frozen wedges. Shawndrea said the grand total for them was $32.
