Reader Success Story of the Week

I think I’m going to start a weekly tradition of highlighting one reader’s shopping trip.  The trip can be to anywhere – a grocery store, drugstore, department store, etc.  I will randomly pick one reader’s picture and post it for everyone to see.  That way, we can all give ourselves new goals as we are motivated by the successes of those around us!  If you would like to participate, send your picture along with how much you spent & saved to addicted to saving at hotmail dot com.  Note – I will pull just one picture/story to show each week so don’t get discouraged if I don’t show yours!  Once I get a ton of pictures in my inbox, I will post all of them together at the end of the month.

Moranda emailed me the picture above after an awesome trip to Publix.  Moranda spent $5.66 on EVERYTHING in the picture above!  (The pic is actually missing an apple b/c she already ate it ;))  Below is a list of the items Moranda purchased as well as the coupons she used in case you want to do any of the deals she did!  Great job Moranda and thank you so much for typing this up for me!  (To see my Photo Show and Tell for this week’s Publix ad, go HERE)

Hello Ronzoni pasta and Ragu sauce!  As you know, Publix has an awesome deal right now on Ragu and Ronzoni which is why I stocked up bigtime!  I had a great day.  Didn’t get any produce, but I have been getting produce at Winn Dixie and I stocked up on organic veggies and ground beef at Messineo’s Market in St Petersburg using the Groupon I purchased for me & my husband.  I did pretty good today though and had a great time shopping as usual. 🙂 

The items I purchased today coincide with this week’s Publix Weekly ad.  To see this week’s ad & coupon matchups, go HERE.

I had a great day at Publix today.  I wasn’t totally overwhelmed with happiness over this week’s sales ad and yet looking at the picture above, I see that I actually did a pretty good job.  I did make one fatal error.  Well, truthfully, I almost made two, but I caught the first error while shopping (I almost bought two Cole’s garlic bread with only one store and one manufacturer coupon – when I realized I needed two manufacturer coupons I put the garlic bread back.  :))  The second error, however, was a pretty big one.  If you look at my picture above, you may be able to see that above the Jimmy Dean sausage is three Old Orchard frozen juice containers (they have green lids).  On the right of those three containers, you may notice a Welch’s frozen juice container with the yellow lid.  What did this error mean?  This error meant that I paid for two Old Orchard juice and only got one free AND I paid in full for a Welch’s juice.  UGH.  Not a big deal in the scheme of life and not a big enough error for me to trek back to Publix.  Lesson learned that I have to really look at each and every item I put in my grocery cart.  My fatal flaw cost me an extra $2.19.  When all is said and done, I’m pretty pleased with my trip.  I also went to Winn Dixie after Publix and bought some produce since they have good produce sales this week (go HERE and HERE to see their ad).

This post is a bit late considering I went shopping yesterday (Thursday) around 9 a.m.!  That is an example of my life right now – a bit crazy!  Publix has an amazing deal on TombStone pizzas and as you can see, I stocked up!  I actually spent THE MOST money on one purchase since starting this website.  I’m not quite sure what happened besides the fact that I bought juice, Miracle Whip and a few veggies?  The Fresh Express salad is on sale B1G1 and I didn’t have a coupon for them *gasp*.  So, I did spend a lot out of pocket on the salad..  Oh well!  I’m still pleased!  I ended up saving 84.8% which I am thrilled about considering the amount I spent out of pocket 😉

The items I purchased today coincide with this week’s Publix Weekly ad.  To see this week’s ad & coupon matchups, go HERE.

I had a fun time at Publix today.  I LOVE The Quantum Finish Dish Detergent Deal.  LOVE IT.  I have four more coupons and will be going back to score more boxes of detergent for $0.99 each.  The Eggo Pancakes deal is of course amazing but as you know if you follow my website, I have enough Eggo to last until the end of time.  I am thrilled about the Rosetto Ravioli deal – it wasn’t dirt cheap or a stockpile price, but I LOVE Ravioli and now know that my agenda next week will somehow include making my homemade sauce with meatballs and sausage.  Yum.  I am going back to Publix on Monday to score some of the great produce deals (in particular the cherries).  Until then, my husband and I are going to be in and out of the house and I didn’t want to buy them and chance them going bad.  How did you do this week at Publix?

I was excited about today’s shopping venture because coffee is on sale B1G1!  My husband goes through coffee like it is going out of style.  So, I was SO excited to see Eight O’Clock Coffee on sale B1G1 again this week.  Beyond the coffee, however, I really didn’t need anything besides the Hungry Jack syrup.  Let me tell you about the syrup.  You know that we all have non-negotiables.  Things that we have to have whether they are on sale or not.  For me, it would be Heinz Ketchup or Tropicana Orange Juice.  For my husband, it is Hungry Jack syrup.  I have a ton of Eggo waffles for him to enjoy (go HERE) and he refuses to eat them without his Hungry Jack syrup.  So, I had to buy it… Without a coupon.  Considering the fact that I spent a mere $0.36 during last week’s Photo Show and Tell (go HERE) I figured it would be okay to go a bit “crazy” today.  So I did – well, I went as “crazy” as I can.  😉  I am also in the midst of joining a produce co-op so I won’t have to buy many veggies at the store any more.  When all was said and done I ended up saving 87%.  This is a lot less than normal but I’m okay with that.  I stocked up on bread to freeze, I have syrup for hubby and I stocked up on applesauce that I will use to bake with and as an occasional snack.  So, I’m pleased.

I did an awesome job yesterday on my spending and saving during this Publix trip.  I focused entirely on the sales and the coupons that I had in my stash since I needed nothing.  Although, looking at my photo, we did need the Bic lighters – we use those for candles and starting the grill so I was super excited they were on sale Buy One Get One Free.  It was a great trip despite the day I had had so far with a horrible experience at the dentist office.  I ended up saving 99.45%  🙂  Also – after you read this post, make sure you read my post HERE about the awesome deal Publix has on All Detergent and Carvel Ice Cream cakes!

I had a great day at Publix today!  I managed to save 94.2% AND I bought a ton of produce and was able to get four cartons of milk for cheap.  (Make sure you read my recent post HERE to get the milk for FREE – bummer that I came across the $2/1 printable after I finished my shopping trip ;))  I really needed nothing other than milk and produce today so I think I did pretty good.  I am super excited about the prices on produce right now.  Now is the time to buy fresh fruits and veggies!  🙂  I also splurged and bought Perdue Baked Chicken Tenderloins that are on sale B1G1.  I didn’t have coupons for these items so it felt a bit weird to make sure a pricey purchase without coupons, but you know what, it’s okay!  That’s why we use coupons.  We use coupons to save money and with our savings splurge every once in a while!  🙂

 There was a pricing issue with the Combat.  The sign on the shelf showed the Combat to be $4.69 each.  However, when they rang up, they rang up as $8.39 each.  I didn’t realize the error until I had walked my cart to the car.  So, I went back to customer service and they ended up giving me $16.90 in cash.  Looking back, I’m not quite sure how they came up with that dollar amount.. I told them I had used $5.00 in coupons on each box, but they insisted I take the $16.90.  So, I made some extra money on the deal.

Meet Liza

welcomeimageThanks 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..Read More Here...
