OH, SO DISAPPOINTED! I shop most of the time at Publix, and I didn't get any email.
I guess someone doesn't like me.

For a non subscription site, I think we get of pretty lightly regarding spam.

Yes I got an email & deleted it. It’s not like Publix doesn’t already have a semi-monopoly in TV. I don’t want any more ads in my email!

Why is this a problem? Your email address is not any more private than your street address.

Default Companies Sell Email Information
It's obvious to me that someone sold a bunch of email information to Publix but what the original source is/was -- who knows??!?

Hello -

Your email information was not sold to Publix. It never has been sold and it never will be. Publix is an advertiser of TOTV which is why the email was sent.

As a free website we appreciate your support for our local advertisers and sponsors such as Publix.

Thank you for all your support.

TOTV Team
