By Al Sunshine, Consumer Investigator, for SouthFloridaReporter.com and FOX 13 Tampa – July 12, 2015 – Remember that old saying “If it sounds too good to be true it probably is” when I first saw an apparent Facebook Hoax for a $100 Coupon from Publix…which the company says is BOGUS!
“There is a fraudulent Publix coupon circulating on social media that states “$100 off your purchase of $120 or more”. This is not supported by Publix and this coupon is not valid at any of our locations. We recommend not participating in the promotion or providing your personal information. Thank you for your patience as we investigate this situation.”

“There is a fraudulent Publix coupon circulating on social media that states ‘$100 off your purchase of $120 or more.’ This is not supported by Publix and this coupon is not valid at any of our locations,” the Lakeland-based grocer said on Facebook.
