<SPAN class="734451619-17102007"><FONT face="Century">In addition, he stated that for a Short time publix Did stop accepting coupons (a couple years ago), due to fraudulent coupons that were circulating. However, they now accept them at All Publix Stores. (Please note, Individual managers of stores do have autonomy to decide whether or not to accept coupons printed from the internet.) However, if you experience difficulties contact your Publix Manager and ask for the name and phone number of the District Manager. </SPAN>
