The initial excitement immediately carried over into skepticism, and all for good reason.

Sunday afternoon, Publix tweeted out a warning that the coupon was not valid and not accepted at any of their stores.
The grocery chain with stores all over the southeast says they are looking into who set up the dummy coupon.
