After skipping my Publix shopping last Thursday due to Parent/Teacher Conference Night at work and then a wonderfully relaxing weekend away in Chicago with my girlfriends, I decided to stop by Publix last night after we got home for some fresh food items and to grab a few basics.
I really was only going to go for salad, veggies, yogurt, butter and eggs but I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to get some cheap shampoo, toothbrushes and toothpaste as well as take advantage of the Running Out, Run In free milk promo.
I had tons of high value Crest/OralB coupons from inside past products so that made the deal/sale on those products even better for me. There on some lower value coupons on both the toothpaste and the brushes in the September P&G for those of you without the in product coupons.
Thanks so the milk promo, lots of coupons and a $5/$50 Winn Dixie coupon I was able to get lots of things we needed for our meals this week as well as household products for under $30.
