My Publix shopping trip today was just awesome! Because they are now only allowing one $5/$30 coupon per order, I split my order into three transactions. It required me to write down which items went together so I didn't mess up. In the end, it was all worth it.
It was pouring rain when I got home so I didn't take a picture. It took all I had to get it in and not get too soaked! I also had rainchecks for the Bic Razors. I was only able to get some and bought all they had but will go back to another store tomorrow before work and see if I could get the rest. This is what I bought:
My first order consisted of:
2 half-gallons Breyers ice cream
10 Kotex
2 Olay Cleansers
After using a $5/$30, a MQ and PQ for the kotex and Olay, and MQ and TQ for ice cream, my total was ($.67). I ran and grabbed a pack of gum to bring my total up to a whopping $.58!! Whoppie!!! It felt like the old days!
My next transaction was:
4 Bic Razors (used RC)
2 Vanity Fair Napkins
4 Mahatma Rice
2 Cool Whip
2 Jello Refrig. Pudding
8 Bushs Baked Beans
Used 4 $3 Bic coupons, $1 MQ for napkins, 2 $.50/1 for Cool Whip, 2-$1.10/1 for Pudding, $4-$1.50/1 for Beans and $5/$30.
My total was $4.80. The funny thing is I went to grab some beans yesterday and I was down to one can of Bushs Beans. Perfect timing.
My last order was:
10 Bic Razors (used RC)
2 Lil' Drumstick Ice Cream
Fresh Pineapple (used the $2 off fresh fruit from Mom's Booklet) Only paid $.99 for pineapple
My total was $3.09!! $2.16 of that was tax!!
My total for ALL of the above was $8.47. I was able to use three $5/$30 coupons, stocked myself up on beans and razors and will use the last two Olay Cleansers I bought to submit for a $10 rebate. I am actually going to submit for two $10 rebates (in two different names)!!
I still have another raincheck for 10 Bic razors and another with 6 razors. I am going to stop at the Beach store tomorrow before work and do the following deal:

10 Bic Hybrid Razors @ $5.79 - $28.95

ReplyDeleteMy dear husband popped into the Island Publix yesterday afternoon to grab a flank steak, but they were sold out. He was told they were waiting for their truck...hope it came in overnight, and the shelves were stocked and ready for ya!
Hi. I have been couponing for a while and was out of it for a bit (family illness). I guess I'm rusty and missing something, lol. I can't find the kotex for $1.49 ad and q's. Only see the lex for $2.93 in gaf. Can you help, thanks!
ReplyDeleteI found the $1/1 coupons taped to the liners on the shelf. It was my lucky day! All I had to do was stack it with the GAF! There are $1.50/2 coupons in the 5/20 SS. Stack with the GAF for overage!
