It was a great week to shop at Publix!! Based on all the comments and emails that I got from you all–I think everyone agrees 🙂
I did fantastic this week. I used the “overage” from the gift card deals with coupons to end up paying $2 for $117.49 worth of groceries!! That means I saved about 99% this week 😀
I have a $50 American Express card that I will use for my groceries. Buying that card gave me an instant $5 overage to go towards groceries. I also grabbed a gas card to get $10 in overage. I see it as just exchanging money in my budget to get cheap groceries!!
So here is what I grabbed this week for a whopping $2:

Wow, great job. I agree, it was a fabulous week at Publix! Thanks for hosting!
living well, spending less
I spent $1.98 for $115.61 worth of groceries, saved $113.63 = 98%
Are you getting the $5 Publix coupons in the mail? If so, where else would you suggest we signup? I believe I’m signed up for everything Publix.
There were $5 off coupons in the Publix calendar. Make sure to get yours when it comes out next year.
How do you get the calendar? Is there somewhere to request one. I only get $5 off about 4x yr. I did not know you could use 2 one one order.
I think the calendar comes out in January, and you have to go to the customer service to ask for it. Michelle usually keeps us updated, when people start seeing it in the stores.
Oh my, you gals are gonna be very hard to beat:) I have not set my foot in a store all week, and it has actually been almost two weeks since I went grocery shopping.
I sent my husband to the Publix to pick up chicken and lactaid milk on Wednesday, and I was supposed to go today. However, my house has been hit my a cold or something. My little man has been clingy, and I think we all know that it is impossible to do couponing with a toddler on the hip. Then last night I felt the achy joints, and sure enough today has been horrible…
Ahhh…motherhood!
I’m very impressed by all of you, and as always Michelle, you really are the Publix queen.

I am new to your site… what are the different columns in your spreadsheet? Just curious…
I had a lean week this week but made several small trips to take advantage of the free plus $1-$2 overage from the theraflu/ triaminic ad = green advantage publix Q+ manufacturers Q. 3 Free kids triaminic acetaminaphen!
Where are you getting these $5 Publix coupons. I get them MAYBE once every two months in the mail on Wednesday.
And I thought I actually did pretty well this week, I got $569.92 worth of groceries from Publix and paid $144.71, compared to you ladies paying $1 or $2, I think I’m doing something wrong.
Thank you for all your work, without your site and coupons, I would never be able to buy the stuff that I am actually buying now.
Do you get the coupons for the gas card and Am Ex from the calendar as well? Or are those from somewhere else?
