PUBLIX VS WALMART

I found this today on a blog somewhere and I thought it was interesting. She bought the items pictured and listed below. The part I liked was she saved about $12 if she would have bought the same items at Walmart. Yes, cereal is cheaper at Walmart. But you will never beat a grocery store sale with Walmart's everyday low price. This is proof!

6 Kellogg's Rice Krispies cereal @ BOGO $3.99 = $11.97
- 3 $1/2 Rice Krispies coupons from the 4/17 RedPlum insert
= $8.97 for six, or $1.50 each

6 Kellogg's Crunchy Nut cereal @ BOGO $3.99 = $11.97\
- 6 70¢ off Crunchy Nut coupons from the 3/27 RedPlum insert
= $7.77 for six, or $1.30 each

2 Kraft mayo @ BOGO $5.18
- $1/2 Kraft mayo coupon from the 4/10 Smartsource insert
= $4.18 for two, or $2.09 each

2 Tidy Cat litter @ BOGO $2.49 (for the pet rabbit)
- 2 $1 off Tidy Cat coupons from the 5/1 SmartSource insert
= 49¢ for two, or 25¢ each

1 newspaper @ 75¢ (bought last Wednesday but included here as a couponing expense)

$5 off $30 Publix coupon from the Spring Cleaning Sale booklet (found in newspaper)

Total before coupons: $32.26
Total after coupons: $17.16
Total savings based on full-priced items at Publix: $56.81
Real savings: (what I saved compared to buying these items at an everyday low prices store like ALDI or Walmart) approximately $12
