Does Publix Price Match?

As prices on most products continue to increase, many consumers are looking for ways to save money. One popular method of saving money is price matching, which occurs when a retailer matches a competitor's price, or even their own price if you find a better deal in the company's own advertising than what they have listed in the store.

DoNotPay can help you price match at hundreds of stores, but can they help you ?

Unfortunately, Publix Doesn't Price Match

Publix was founded as a single store in 1930. Since that time, it has become the largest employee-owned company in the U.S., with:

  • Nearly 1,300 store locations
  • 9 distribution centers
  • 11 manufacturing locations

While Publix has received a number of awards for customer satisfaction, .

The Ways Publix Helps Customers Save Money

Although Publix doesn't specifically state that it will match any competitor's price, it does offer the ability to match the prices that competing stores advertise in their coupons. Here are three ways Publix customers can save money through coupons.

Competitor CouponsPublix will honor prices listed in competitor coupons, including those involving the competitor's private label brand (Publix will offer products from its own private label for the competitor's price); buy one get one free offers from competitors; prescription discounts offered by all local pharmacies; and competitor offers for gift cards with the purchase of an item.

Publix will also honor competitor's awards that they offer through loyalty programs. In order to obtain the reward from Publix, you simply have to show that you have satisfied all other requirements of the offer.

Coupon StackingIn addition to honoring coupons from competitors, Publix also allows its customers to coupon stack in order to obtain even bigger discounts on the products they purchase.

A manufacturer's coupon for an item can be stacked with a store coupon or a competitor coupon.

There are some exceptions, however, as you are not permitted to combine a competitor's BOGO coupon with a manufacturer or store coupon, or combine a coupon offering a discount if you purchase multiple items with any other type of coupon.

In-store BOGOsPublix offers at least 30 buy-one-get-one deals each week.

Who are Publix's Competitors?

The stores that Publix considers competitors -- and honors coupons from through its competitor coupons policy -- vary according to the store's location. Each store has a list of competitors available and can provide you with that information upon request.

Common Publix Competitors

In some locations, wholesalers such as Costco and value stores such as Save A Lot can also be considered competitors. But again, this varies by market.

How DoNotPay Can Help You Hold Stores Accountable for Price Matching or Advertised Prices

Have you received all the discounts available through ? If you haven't, do you have time to inform them on your own of a violation in their advertising of the product?

Fortunately, DoNotPay can help you hold Publix and other retailers accountable for honoring the prices they advertise and the discounts they're willing to give to match prices offered by other retailers.

How It Works

To start receiving the best prices on the products you buy, simply follow these steps:

  1. Search for Price Match on DoNotPay and select the product.
  2. Select whether you were charged more than the advertised price or if you believe you are eligible for a price match.
  3. Provide the name of the product you purchased so we can see if it qualifies for a price adjustment. If you believe your desired item is qualified for a price match, we'll double-check for you.

If you have been overcharged for an item, DoNotPay will notify the company of the violation and demand a refund on your behalf. You should hear from them directly within two weeks.
