We had a family grocery shopping trip today. Before baby, hubby and I would often go shopping together. Now, with Asher here, sometimes I will go by myself just to get a bit of a break 😉 But today, all three of us went and had a great time. I ordered a cake for Asher’s birthday which is next week AND Publix is giving us the smash cake for FREE! Have I told you how much I love Publix? 🙂 I would say that one year flies by but really, Asher has only been living here in America with us for almost 6 weeks and he has been living with me for almost 2 months. I can say that 2 months have flown by! We’ve gone through a lot and I know he will have more to go through but these past two months have been awesome!
Today’s shopping trip was fun as usual. I was able to get a good deal on two more boxes of Huggies Diapers and I got an awesome deal on Pampers Wipes. Each box of diapers ended up being $8.23 (including tax). I did two separate transactions. The first transaction was all groceries minus the diapers. And the second transaction was just the diapers. I’ve kept the transactions separate below.
As you can see below, Asher takes shopping at very seriously!

Thanks for coming to Addicted to Saving! Here’s a little bit about me so you can know who’s behind all these posts!
My name is Liza and I began my money-saving journey in the Spring of 2009 as a way to stretch a limited household income. I had lost my job and my hubby was self-employed. I launched Addicted to Saving in November of 2009 and it has grown by leaps and bounds. Since then, my hubby and I have struggled with the ups and downs of two failed adoptions and are now LOVING being parents to our little man Asher who we brought home from Ethiopia in August of 2013. I feel incredibly blessed to be able to help you save money. My goal is that you will have FUN and become empowered to save more and more money each week..
Great Shopping and your baby is so cute! I have a question about the diapers, I’m coming up with a different total based on the coupons that you listed. Is there a coupon missing? Thanks 🙂
Natalie, sorry for the confusion! I used two $3/1 Publix coupons from the 9/8 SS insert – just updated the post. 🙂
I know awhile bavk there were publix coupons for huggies diapers. I am thinking she had to use some store coupons bc I get a different amount as well.
Jolene, you are right! I used two $3/1 Publix Huggies coupons from the 9/8 SS. Just updated. 🙂
Where did you find the pampers wipe coupon in the store? Do they still have them?
He is just to cute. I wanted to add that I also look on the couponaholic website and i just wanted to tell you your wonderful how you post deals for others. There is a guy named steve on that website that does post with him purchasing 75 glade refreshers and making money on them. I love that you purchase what your family we use and need like me and many others.
I couldn’t believe on the first day of the sale I went to 3 different publix’s and every shelf was wiped out at every store. I just wanted a couple
What store did u find the coupon sheet. I also live in holiday
Hi! I just did my publix shopping today. Publix has $1.00 off 1 Pase Picante Sauce in the Internationally Inspired Recipes booklet at the customer service desk. I bought 4 and used 2 $0.60 off 2 and 4 $1.00 off 1. They were free plus overage of $0.04.
What is the SS (9-8-13) with Publix coupons? I’ve never heard of this. Also where do you get it? My SS insert in the newspaper doesn’t have Publix coupons only manufacturers coupons. Thanks for any help.
