Sorry about that, guys! Luckily I didn't use it, & hope no one else
did. Here are instructions on how to properly get one. Thanks,
Andrea...


DONT USE THIS COUPON!! This coupon has a unique code on the right hand
side
under that funny bar code like thing. It can be traced back to the IP
Address it was printed from. That person can face up to 17 years in
jail and
over $200K in fines! Not to mention that if it is put on the coupon
fraud
list then NO ONE CAN USE IT LEGALLY.
You can get your own when you sign up for a free coupon booklet worth
$50
through Publix (

When you get to the print screen you can print it twice by hitting the
back
button once.

What are the penalties for coupon fraud?
Penalties for those convicted of coupon fraud related crimes vary by
each
case and the number of laws violated.
As of this date,
Longest prison sentence: 17 years
Highest financial penalty: $5 million
Prison sentences of three to five years are not uncommon. Financial
penalties generally vary, but have often been in excess of $200,000.
And if this coupon is put on the fraud list bc someone is misusing it,
you
nor I will be able to use it and ANYONE can get it for free anyhow.
