I had planned on doing more shopping but just ran out of time. I always seem to think I can get more done than I actually can 😀
I did go to Publix once last week and it was a really good trip. I spent less than $6 and will get a $10 mail in rebate for buying all the Ritz crackers…so I’d say it was a decent trip. I spent $5.85 for $168.63 worth of products meaning I saved 97% this week.

Sorry for the post being late but I did not have access to my excel spreadsheet or my receipt 😀 How did you guys do this week? Leave a comment or link to your weekly totals. Feel free to add in any Black Friday deals you scored. If you read my other blog I Heart Saving Money you know that I did not shop on Black Friday –but I love to live vicariously through others 😀
Oh how I wish I wish I wish that my Publix had competitors! They don’t take Food Lion, Target or ANY drug store! My grocery bill is MUCH lower thanks to you, but oh how much lower it could be!! I admit… I may have to drive to another Publix that takes these competitor Q’s! You are amazing and congrats on a great week!
I’m impressed with your shopping skills! however, my hubby and I wonder how/why you can use (for example) 8 coupons when you buy 4 items??? I’ve never tried that at my Publix in ATL… Do they allow using more than the one coupon per item? Please explain!! Thanks!
Ruth you can use a manufacturer and a Publix coupon (or competitor coupon) per item purchased…so sometimes you will see more coupons than items. For example: four 1/1 + two .75/1 target & two .65/1 Publix Q –I used 4 manuf.Q’s, two Publix Q’s and two Target Q’s.
Hope that helps!!
Cheese Louise! Our mozzarella was $5.49! Unfortunately, I had to send dh to do that deal. I told him to get ricotta, but following instructions is not his forté. 8-\ On the plus side, w/out the RR deal, I spent $6.89 for just under $48 worth. Not too shabby for my second shot. 8-]
God bless y’all for giving through these wonderful sites! ^i^
I spent $20.38 for $203.70 worth of groceries, saved $183.32 = 90%
I had my best Publix trip ever- I bought all my groceries (about $100), a new mop, two huge sirloin steaks (Publix matched an Albertson’s coupon so I got it for $1.99 a pound rather than the Publix price of $5.99/lb) AND $55 in iTunes gift cards….all for $51.00- less than the cost of just the gift cards! I had $10 off $40 from Sweetbay, a $5 off $50 from GFS and a $10 off WYB $50 in iTunes gift cards, plus I did the Cover Girl and Rachael Rays/Sorrento deals along with my Harvey’s coupons and MQs. It was a lot of fun!
