... 68 Coupons Later - Saved $186 - Paid $14 - A Great Day at Publix

I Lo♥e Extreme Savings

(Just Bragging A Little Here, :-) )

Yesterday was the last day of the FREE boxes of Fiber One cereals with 25¢ overage on each.  So it was my second trip this week.  I was actually planning on Publix paying me to shop,  but some impulse shopping caused me to dig in to my wallet for a credit card (one that gives cash back for all purchases, of course).  Had I not inspected  the clearance rack at the front of the store, I would not have picked up a $4.50 bag of bird food (saving at least 50%).  The rest of the $14 and change was spent on Boar's Head products from the Publix Deli counter.  It is very rare that I don't impulse buy some items, but usually I can manage to find a coupon, or the item is a BOGO.

You only live once.

Coupons Used:

• 4 Publix Starkist .50/1
• 21 Publix General Mills cereal from weekly ad $2/1
• 21 Mfr Fiber One cereal .75/1

The rest of the savings was from BOGOs and other sales.  All in all, I am delighted that I am set with cereal for many months to come.  Our pantry already had a bunch of  Kashi cereals and oeatmeal stocked.  Now we have a nice variety.

60 Cents Each - Starkist 6.4 oz Pouch - GREAT DEAL For Upcoming BOGO

Look for the above image when you get this this link on Facebook.  Like them and print two by hitting your  BACK ARROW after printing the first one. 

Hurry and print out two of these because they won't be around long.  And, if you live in the S.E., you can cash in on the savings at Publix when the weekly ad changes on 1/12/12 or 1/13/11, depending on your locale.  That's when they go on sale BOGO, $3.19 for both, MINUS $2 (2 coupons for $1 off 1), and you now are paying just 60¢ each.

By the way, these pouches seem to have WAY MORE tuna in them than the 5 oz. cans (not just an ounce more) - less broth and, the tuna is less mushy and chopped up.   At least that's my experience.
