If I had to sum up my Publix shopping trip today, it would be HELLO CHEESE! I’m armed and ready to make at least two lasagnas and at least one dish of stuffed shells. YUM. Publix has some great sales today and I was so excited to get mozzarella cheese, ricotta and to try out the new Kraft Mozzarella w/ Philly Shredded cheese. I spent a bit more than I desired and expected but I am pleased with 80.6% savings! I also giggled to myself as I put the two bottles of French’s mustard in my shopping cart because I was picturing myself not buying one bottle but 150 like the lady on Extreme Couponing. heehee. I also was able to do the Right Guard deodorant and body wash deal which made me extremely happy.
The items I purchased today coincide with this week’s Publix Weekly ad. To see this week’s ad & coupon matchups, go HERE.
If you are new to saving money at Publix, read my Intro to Publix post!
**Disclaimer**
1) My Publix allows us to use more than one of the same Publix store coupon and/or competitor coupon in one transaction. Not all Publix locations allow this. You should ask customer service if they allow this before loading up your cart.
2) Not all Publix locations allow overage – mine does. If your Publix does not allow overage, they will usually adjust the value of the coupon down so that you receive the item for free.

Missy – I know. A box will be made for the day is over. 😉
Maria says
Nice trip! where did you find the alexia bread…I could not find it in my store anywhere…looked in the freezer – nothing! in the bread aisle…nothing. Thanks!
Addicted to Saving says
Thanks Maria! I found the Alexia in the freezer section.. It was next to the bags of Pillsbury frozen rolls.. At my Publix, frozen bread is next to frozen waffles/pancakes/etc.. You might want to look there? Otherwise, ask customer service. They look really good – hopefully they taste as good as they look! 🙂
Maria says
You’re welcome! I will try again next week!! Thanks, and because I saw the pics of your trip…I headed to the publix again…for the 3rd time…lol and got my chips and more gum!! You opened my eyes to a deal I might have missed on otherwise!!:)

Fantastic! Our family was able to take advantage of the B1G1 Alexia frozen bread with 4 $1 off coupons. .70 each is such a steal. Thank you so much for sharing this!
