Let's see...

500 miles one way to the nearest Publix in Goodlettsville, TN = ~16 gallons needed @ 30 MPG AVG to get there
16 gallons x 2.70/gallon = ~$45
$45 x 2 (for the return trip back to Chi) = $90

So all I would need is 9 cards and I basically have a free trip! Goodlettsville Tennessee, here I come!

Publix in Alpharetta, GA is limiting two per customer. Great deal if you can put it on your cerdit card as well.

we got no limit yet(Miami, fl). I checked out 3 times with 3 cashier with 5 cards each.
the only problem is after each transaction, my credit card was denied the next time.
so, I used 3 credit cards for them.
after I got back, I call the credit card. they said they suspend my card for fraud alert and fixed it for me.
anyone have similar experience. will that a bad thing or nothing?

Nothing to worry about, just your credit card company doing it's job to prevent fraud, since this was not your usualy spending pattern.

Just went to two Publix and was told there is a limit on cards- 2 per person per transaction. I requested proof since the coupon doesn't state a limit on purchases and the manager pulled out a letter from corporate stating there will be a limit of two. Anyway, I just thought those of you in GA (Duluth, Lawrenceville areas) should be aware.

wuxiao99,

American Express did the smae thing to me. Such BS. I used another AMEX to make the purchase. FYI after 5 cards in one transaction they need a manager to override the purchases as of 6:00pm EST tonight. I assume they will crack down on these more and more.

I got 5 cards and bought them with my 5% Cash Back card. Good deal!

I didn't notice any expiration date on the back so I may go tomorrow and try and get a few more.

Bought 2 in Tampa (sign said one, she didn't say anything) no worries.

An inactivity fee of $1.75 per month will be applied to any balance on the Card if 12 months elapse during which the Card is not used to make a purchase.

CORRECTION:

Are there any charges or inactivity fees if I haven't used my card in awhile?
» No, the Shell Gift Cards are not subject to any inactivity fees.

Went to my local publix...has 1 bp card I found and a bunch of the shell cards but none of the shell cards would activate...manager said the shell's were activating yesterday so didn't know what the issue was. Said they would get more of the bp cards in tomorrow so I'll go back and try to snag a few more.

"Reproduction or transfer of this coupon constitutes fraud."

They accept printed copies? Or did you guys all used local ads?

Strange that my Publix will not take credit card for the gas card. They said cash or debit card only.
Anyone has the same experience?
