I had a marvelous day at Publix today! I’ve spent a bit more out of pocket than I would desire the past couple of weeks so I was happy to spend $7.99 today 🙂 Today was especially fun because I went in with really three things that I needed (grapes, fresh corn and onions) and since I needed just a few things, I was able to really focus on the awesome freebies available! I was so pleased to see that my store was stocked on everything! Considering I shopped so late in their sales ad, Publix was beyond stocked on everything! And, I went through my printable and “free” coupons to make sure I used all of the coupons I have that expire 4/30.. (If you printed the $1/1 Mission coupon, the $2/1 Tribe Hummus coupon and if you have the FREE Bic Lighter coupon and you haven’t used them yet, use it now!) I also grabbed 4 Cadberry Eggs not knowing how much they were marked down so I was excited to see that they rang up for $0.37 each! I love those things!
I also talked to numerous customer service staff members and cashiers about the Publix coupon policy changes and I want to reinforce what I posted yesterday – everyone CALM down. 🙂 I don’t forsee the changes to be anything we can’t handle. I promise. Stores will be cracking down on the competitor coupons that they accepts but right now, my Publix only accepts two stores (Sweet Bay and Winn Dixie) and I still save big bucks every week. So, for those of you who may not be able to use CVS, Walgreens, Target, etc in the future, don’t fret! I promise you will still save big. Okay? Also – once the official changes go through, I will post about it and we can game plan how we will save going forward. 🙂

If you don’t have a blog, feel free to leave a comment on this post letting us know how you did shopping this week!
Mandi says
You did great, as usual. I should have gotten a rain check on the crackerfuls.. I meant to go back and do it and forgot. Hopefully they will go on sale again soon 🙂
liz says
Same here! I have a bunch of coupons but never went back to get a rain check (it was such a crazy week that week) … ugh! Hope they go on sale before 5/20 when the coupons expire :/
Cheryl @ Simply CVS says
Oops, sorry I put the wrong link in the first time I linked up but I can’t delete it. Can you? Sorry about that.
What a fantastic Trip!
Addicted to Saving says
Took care of it Cheryl! 🙂
Lynn says
I encourage everyone to stop at their Customer Service desk and ask who they consider competitors. My Publix stopped accepting Target coupons in January but today when I asked they said they would accept them from Target and even BJ’s. They said as long as it was local.
Kristin says
This was a really great week/weekend for me!! my first really big scores! woohoo! love your site.
Jennifer says
Are the peelies presently on the Pace jars?
Addicted to Saving says
Yes – the peelies are found on many of the Pace specialty jars.. There were a ton of peelies this afternoon at my Publix. Just verify that the different flavors are included in the sale. 🙂
Jennifer says
I was wondering how much the corn is and I don’t see it posted. I checked three times. I hope I’m not going nuts!
Addicted to Saving says
Yeah!! Thank you for pointing that out! I knew I overlooked something b/c the math didn’t add up!! (I posted the actual amount I spent but when I used my calculator I kept coming up short!!) The corn is on sale 8/$2.00 🙂 Will add it right now!
Christina says
