Publix Valentine's Day Commercial

[sinatrabooth89]

@kerryoke68 lol ok, you can adopt me then ;) And psh technicalities. But Zach is always easy to recognize, he has a very distinct face, ears, and hair. (distinct in a good way of course)

[sinatrabooth89]

@kerryoke68 Just a hint of sarcasm in my last comment ;)

[sinatrabooth89]

Zach is, was, and ALWAYS will be an incredibly talented actor.

[kerryoke68]

@sinatrabooth89 that's so nice. I wonder how many people recognize Zach now that he's done stuff at 15.

[huggysaurus97]

awwwwwwwww thats so sweet!

[adjustedsettings]

I Can't Believe That After All These Years I Still Cry Like This. Complete Homerun For Publix.

[LiberalSquared]

I just have something in my eye.

[billclark6190]

Publix has used this TV ad many years. It is to me one of their very best Valentine's Day ads!

[billclark6190]

I thought that this commercial really "says something." No wonder Publix has run it for several years.

[jm5732]

The boy was perfect for this part. One of the coolest commercials ever....i tear up a little every time i watch it.

[kiki2lu]

aaaaawwww

[lolmomos]

Aw, Zach..

[zombiepi]

I would laugh if his name was Oedipus.

[ginlover92545]

for boys their first gf is their mom!! ;p Im not a mom but I am moved by this! I wanted to cry when I saw this!!! :')

[Airn]

Crying is guaranteed every time I see this commercial. I love it.

[MsReesta]

OMG SOoooo SWEET

[newbedfordsox]

So cute .. and creative .. I wish i had such idea when i was a kid :)

[fairyhome]

omg, that was so sweet!

[entaroduai]

oh, that's sweet

[bkhaveityourway112]

i always thought this was the cutest commercial ever :')

[BetaWolf47]

0:59 PINGIS... Robotnik would be proud

[WdnUlik2no]

while I usually don't like mushy commercials, I must admit, this commercial is very sweet and cute and made me smile.

[KuromiCupcake]

Thats Zach Mills!!

[KuromiCupcake]

I ALWAYS LOVED THIS COMMERCIAL<3 Thats why i had to look it up :)

[RatedRKJerichO]

So very Goddamned sweet :)



[iHeartBlathers]

:')

[holafabe]

I'm lucky to have my mom :]

kinda made me want to cry

haha I'm lame X]

....

and if my friend ever finds this comment

don't give up hope [:

[ChazDawg]

A few years back before my Mom passed away, I recorded the morning news daily until I got this on tape. I mailed it to her in time for Valentine's Day. She loved it, and it meant a lot to both of us. Love your parents while you still have them, and tell them you love them as often as you can.

[chocolatecauldrons]

how does that relate to shopping? bad job :/

[ricemancometh]

@chocolatecauldrons you were never the smartest one in your family were you?

[chocolatecauldrons]

I get it, but it's just a completely unrelated idea. I hate when ads don't relate. It's not advertising. I can't even remember what this ad is for, I just remember the sentiment.

[Katie2009ification]

@chocolatecauldrons What? Get a life. It's totally related.

[iloveihop07]

I DON'T GET IT

[Ennsey]

@iloveihop07 his mom is the one he made the cake for :P

[haydenman2]

i miss publix I had to move to NY for a job . their commercials make me feel happy

[986sire238]

@Izzythegecko

actually, when asked who it was for, he replied "Mom" as if she was prying, but, he meant it. it is touching. great job on this commercial.

[RoxyKasten]

I live in GA and sadly we don't have any commercials. :( Though sometimes life at the store is enough to make a sitcom. lol

[tamaraargois]

@RoxyKasten I live in GA too and we have plenty of commercials! In fact, I saw this commercial on TV a while back and just looked it up to show my friend.

[beeachblonde]

tears come to my eyes every time at the end when the little boy and the mom share a knowing glance! i'm not a mom and i always am touched! <3

[chkjns]

You don't need to be a mom to cry, you just have to have a heart! I grew up around publix the first half of my life. This ad should be an award-winner!

[Deebinhaah]

Eu sou brasileira, gostaria que alguém me explicase o video!!!

[chkjns]

O menino pede sua mãe ajudá-lo a assar algo especial da menina da que ele é carinhoso. Aquela menina é sua mãe! O 'Publix' é um supermercado privadamente possuído baseado na Flórida os EUA, onde cresci.

[Toontownplay]

I'm In Florida. I CRY everytime I see this. I looked at this too much, and started throwing up.... -_- sooo sad...

[lethargikpenguin]

he secretly wants to make his mom fat

[986sire238]

@lethargikpenguin

lol

[lancetop]

When I lived in Florida, Publix always had the best commercials.

[periwinkle08]

i loved this commercial when it first came out and i still loved it...and i still got teary eyed!

[AnbuSoran]

That got me all teary!

I'm glad I work for such a nice company ^-^

[claflincutie]

yeah, i cried. that was sweet

[Sandman1278]

o the mom is who he baked teh cake for how adorable

[kerryoke68]

He's in "Kit Kittredge An American Girl".

[melissa6295]

I'm glad I'm not the only person that cries when they see this commercial.

[JenVanderhoff]

love this

[iyc369]

I cry just thinking about this commericial.

[KTKproductionss]

cutest commercial ever

[hmgrice]

I always cry when I see this commercial.

[innomind]

Fantastic!!!

[Escocobar]

The look on his face at the end is just pricelless. Probably, probably my favorite commercial ever.

[jessiebo24]

This is a great commercial, with the exception of the approx. 8 year old kid riding in the front seat of the car. He really should be in the back if his Mom was educated about safety. I know it's a commercial, but ALL kids 12 and under should be in the back seat. Even if it's in a commercial!

[SpitfireZero]

lol why would you care

[kerryoke79]

just to be clear, they rode about 3 feet in an empty parking lot for this spot and let's assume she has no air bags..for the purposes of the story. It IS an ideal made up world after all. :)

[xXxXsakuXsasuXxXx]

this is my absolute fave commercial ever!!!!!!!

[flipfanatic2008]

I love this commercial, the boyd face at the end gives me chills. ANd publix is great, their produce never fails, walmarts produce is awful.

[ddrgeek1987]

aww that's cute

[chewbacca328]

u know i just looked up a publix commercial to see wat other people said about it, but that was soooo cute lmao!

[4frisco]

This is just perfect. The way only a son can speak to his Mom.

[HopefullyWild]

aw!!!!

[tehorix789]

I just noticed: when the mom says "Who's this for?" he responds "mom...." Clever.

[periwinkle08]

aww its soo cute...i wanna cry...haha!...oneday i hope my son does that for me!

[hebrewhammer456]

i wanna cry so bad everytime i see this because i feel so guilty that i never do anything for my mom.

[sempercool16]

As an 2 year associate of Publix, I approve of this video post on behalf of George Jenkins

[Ivyandstone]

FYI, everybody I know, knows that Publix is THE place to go for anything bakery related.

[Aerolineas747]

Yeah their bakery has a lot of stuff love thier cornbread really easy to get to one sinc there are so many in miami.

[huggyface]

Publix bakery ROCKS!! LOVE their cornbread and rice pudding!! :-) The deli is cool too...if overpriced. Their made-to-order subs are okay but they could make them thicker. Hot bar could stand more variety but it's better than going to Winn-Dixie.

[ftolmsteen]

But anything else there you're paying way too much for. Viva Winn-Dixie!!!!!! Revolucion!!

[huggyface]

Ahh, W-D sucks! They used to be cool but ever since they rolled out their stinking "Reward Card" and then other shit hit the fan (making them close a lot of stores), they're just a has-been IMHO...besides I'd rather go to Publix or Sedano's, both of which won't make you surrender your privacy (to get a card); their stores are cleaner; better employees, etc. and you get just as good a heap of food; maybe better! ;-)

[kerryoke68]

The little boy in the commercial is my son (Zach Mills). He had so much fun filming this commercial and it really makes us extremely happy the everyone loves it. Look for him in "Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium".

[DebBnGA]

He's so adorable and what a great actor! He pulled off that look to his 'mom' in the end of the commercial perfectly.

[4frisco]

You should be very proud. An excellent example of an excellent son.

[ehyob]

I attended college in Atlanta so there are Publix grocery stores everywhere. When I saw this commercial in my dorm room one afternoon, I too cried like a baby. It is a great commercial to post around Valentine's Day.

[huggyface]

Of course Publix rules the roost here in FL. (Followed a distant 2nd by Winn-Dixie) Anyway I saw this ad on Valentines' Day on TV, and fell in love with it! I'm really glad it was uploaded for many to see here. I wish I could make a cake for my girlfriend, and have that on TV. My mom doesn't like a lot of cake LOL

[kendallxu22]

Impressive, Ben. Very impressive... :)

[bensicnolf]

See, Kendall- tell me you didn't tear up...

[Ivyandstone]

The look that little boy gives his Mom at the end just *makes* the whole commercial. I don't even have kids, except for the four-legged kind, but I love this.

[RustyTube]

Yes, Zach Mills is an amazing actor.

[RareEpiphany]

Im' so glad you posted this. It's my favorite commercial ever. I even have a blog about it. I hope my son loves me that much when he gets to be a big boy

[blackbird107]

That has to be one of the best commercals I've ever seen.

[sukiyakister]

im only 17 and am no where close to being a mom, but i love this commercial!! makes me get teary
