I can not believe how time is flying! My husband and I had an afternoon Publix date today and I realized that I haven’t been to Publix in two weeks since last weekend I was in Nashville! We had a great time in Nashville learning about blogging, meeting other bloggers and meeting Joe Jonas and Rascal Flatts. This week took a bit of time getting into the swing of things as we have been battling exhaustion and colds. But we are on the mend and I’m thankful for that!

Today’s Publix shopping trip wasn’t the most amazing in the world. I was focusing on a lot of “healthier” options today so we spent a little more then I would have liked. But, it is worth it. Would rather save just 50% and get all healthy food versus save 100% and get all junk. (Don’t get me wrong – I like my junk food – I’m just trying to focus on having a primarily healthy diet.) I actually contemplated going on a cleanse this week. Not so much as to lose weight as to get rid of the toxins in my system and to lose some of my cravings for junk food. Have any of you done that before? Would love to hear your thoughts as well as the type of cleanse you did.

Also – as a note for the items I purchased below, I was able to use the $0.50/1 Maggi Soup Mix coupon to score FREE soup mix. The verbiage on the coupon is extremely confusing so I can not promise your store will honor it the way mine did.

If you are in need of cereal, head over to Publix! This weekend (Saturday and Sunday, 2/17-2/18) all Kellogg’s cereal is on sale 50% off!! There are times like these when I wish I had kids to buy fun cereals for! Since we don’t, we bought cereals for some of our favorite kiddos and also a couple for us. In the picture in front of you, there are 15 boxes of Kellogg’s cereals as well as one carton of Publix Half & Half. We used three $5.00 off 5 Kellogg’s Cereal coupons, one $5.00 off $30+ Publix coupon and our cashier also let us use one $2/$2 Publix coupon. So, everything in the picture cost $11.69 which was savings of 81.6%. Not too shabby!!

**update – as a head’s up – make sure you don’t make the same mistake I did.. The coupon is good for boxes 10 oz+ and I mistakingly got two boxes that were under 10 oz..

If you haven’t printed the HOT $5.00/5 Kellogg’s Cereal coupon, I think it is still available. Go HERE and type in zip 79928.

I can’t believe a year has passed since last year’s Publix Italian Days sale! I must admit that this year’s sale isn’t quite as impressive as last year’s. Last year Publix gave us slightly better coupons. Despite this, you can still get great deals at Publix right now! I had fun putting together my scenarios for today’s shopping trip – and yes – you will see that despite the stockpile I currently have of canned beans, I bought more today. 😉 I can’t wait to hear how all of you did – please leave me comment and let me know!

**P.S. If you are shopping at Publix Saturday 2/18 or Sunday 2/19 read my post HERE to HEREto print two sets of awesome $5/5 Kellogg’s cereal coupon that will go perfectly with the 50% off sale!!

We have had another busy week and yet again I waited until the last minute to go grocery shopping. We’ve been working a lot on our adoption paperwork for our Haiti adoption and it seems that we have such a neverending list of things to do (adoption and non-adoption related) that life is a little overwhelming. I love lists and I love crossing out items on the list. Right now I just don’t see our list shortening – instead it seems to get longer by the second. I don’t know if that is what happens when you are grown up? Hubby and I took a break from life and had a date night at Publix (so NOT romantic – let me tell you). We ended our date with making a frozen pizza for dinner. Gotta love it! I didn’t have the most success today at Publix. While there are some good sales, I wasn’t overwhelmed with them. And, I did spend more then I would have liked to today. My husband wanted me to get two of the POM drinks which were a deal but not that good of a deal. Same thing for the Resolve. I was SUPER excited for the Weiman Stove Top cleaner sale. I’ve never tried this product before it was a great deal and I’m always trying to keep my glass-top clean.

So I thought this week was going to be a slow week but looking at the picture above, I’m seeing that this week’s sales are actually pretty good! I was fortunate enough to have the $5.00/$30.00 Publix coupon I posted about HERE as well as the $5.00/$50.00 Sweetbay coupon I posted about HERE. And, my store let me use the Free $10.00 Publix gift card when you buy $100+ of groceries so I was able to do really well! **Not all stores will let you use the Free $10 Gift Card coupon with the Publix store and Sweetbay store coupon. My husband is extremely happy about the sugary cereals we were able to get and I’m extremely excited about the Johnsonville Sausage and Spareribs we were able to get. AND – the Sambazon juice was FREE after the $2.00 coupon I posted about HERE and that made both of us happy!

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 1/27/12

Are these weeks flying by for you guys too? Another week has come and gone and it has been a whirlwind for my husband and I. (I will post more about that next week.) So, to celebrate tonight being Friday, my husband and I had a Publix date night. And now we are home and I’m typing up this Photo Show & Tell while he is warming up leftovers from last night. Yup. We are that boring! 🙂 This week’s sale wasn’t too impressive for me but I still was able to do a pretty good job at Publix. Last night we picked up ground beef and bacon from the local Zaycon Foods event so we now have enough boneless, skinless chicken breasts, ground beef and bacon to feed a small army. So yet again, I focused on the good sales at Publix and tried to maximize the sales with coupons. My favorite deal that I did tonight was the LaCroix Sparkling Water deal – I love that water and with the $1.00 off coupons, each can ended up being right around 10 cents!

I did my weekly Publix shopping trip today. I’m not going to lie – I’m a bit disappointed with the sales lately. This week showed some good sales but nothing like I wanted. I REALLY want a sales week like this one HERE. This week I didn’t buy a ton of produce besides the raspberries and apples. I did buy two Butternut Squash (I’ve never made butternut squash soup but I plan to this week) and one Spaghetti Squash to use with my homemade sauce and meatballs (another thing I plan on making this week). All of the squash definitely added up but it will be worth it in the end. I was pleased with the tuna sale as well as with all of the crackers sales. And I did buy 10 boxes of Weight Watchers Smart Ones although you can’t quite tell from the picture. I also did the $50.00 gas card deal although I did not include that in my totals below since I don’t include gas in my grocery budget. 😉

I know what you all are going to think when you see this picture. You are going to think that I barely bought anything and that there is no way I can live off of today’s shopping trip. You are right on both counts! This week’s Publix ad is disappointing to me. I am fortunate in that I have been couponing for years now and so I have a stockpile that is more than sufficient. So today I went to Publix with the buying around $30.00 worth of groceries (after sale and before coupons) so that I could use one of my $5 off $30 coupons. I’m hoping that next week’s sale is better. I have only been grocery shopping twice thus far in year 2012 and I haven’t been impressed with my savings or my results.

I have been taking advantage of the Zaycon Foodsevents, and so I have a ton of meat frozen away so I will not have to pay full price on lean meat for months to come. I am literally swimming in boneless, skinless chicken breasts. And, I am going in with friends on the upcoming Zaycon Foods bacon and ground beef deals so I know I will have enough meat to live on for a long time. (If you are new to Zaycon Foods, read my post HERE to learn more about Zaycon and to take advantage of their awesome meat deals!)

**If you like feta cheese (we LOVE it), make sure you read my post about the unadvertised Publix BOGO sale plus $1/2 printable coupon! I didn’t have this coupon on me when I went shopping tonight otherwise I would have taken advantage of this deal! Go HERE to read my post.
