| Spent $37 for $122 worth of groceries. |
I loved this week's Publix ad. I had all the coupons I needed and everything was the right size/type/price to match my pre-planned list so the trip went quickly and smoothly. I had finally cleared some space out in our fridge and freezer thanks to a few weeks of eating mostly from our stock pile. So, clearly, the logical thing to do was buy tons of stuff to fill them back up to the brim again : )
I went for broke today with the frozen treats because we really do enjoy having a treat once a week but we never buy them because full price on those types of things is way too painful and unnecessary. Today I took full advantage of the sales from the June "Dairy Month" Yellow Ad. flyer since I don't know when we will see sales on some of those products again.
I was able to use a $5/$30 Winn Dixie coupon and I had a small money maker in the form of dog bones so even though I bought some non sale items and a whole chicken my Publix total was still pretty good. I did go over my usual $50 a week with my Target trip but all in all, I feel like I got alot for my money this week and I was able to stock up on things we need and use all the time so I am thrilled.
Make sure you check out my super fun giveaway of the Publix Smart Savings Booklets and some Winn Dixie $5/$30 competitor coupons too!
