There are some great deals at Publix this week. Free pasta, free Cascadian Farm cerial, FREE Muir Glen sauce, and some other cheap deals. I really wanted to purchase some produce this week which I ended up accomplishing. I think I’m going to try using the Muir Glen sauce I have stockpiled along with the cans I bought today to use in my family’s red sauce recipe… So, homemade meatballs (using frozen ground turkey I have stockpiled) and red sauce may be in the menu next week. I wasn’t planning on buying Quaker True delights granola bars (they are a favorite in our house) but when I saw that there was $1.00/1 peelies on them, I couldn’t pass them up. So, be on the lookout for the peelies! I also bought more Yakisoba noodles because they are $0.10 each and I plan to donate all of them and more to the Warren Backpack Program on November 20th. The Warren Backpack Program gives homeless children easy to fix food so that they have food to eat when they are not at school. Go HERE for more information on the Addicted to Giving Back program as well as drop off location and time if you would like to help. I did spend maybe a bit more money than planned, but I bought a lot so I’m pleased.

If you are new to saving money at Publix, read my Intro to Publix post!
**NOTE**
1) My Publix allows us to use more than one of the same Publix store coupon and/or competitor coupon. 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. If your Publix does not allow overage, they will adjust the value of the coupon down so that you receive the item for free.

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..
Fantastic trip!! Some day I am going to live by a Publix :-).
Can you tell me what zip code you used for the Muir Glen coupon? Thank you.
Thanks for the link-up! Love following and learning from you. Always tell my readers to follow you so they can learn how to use overages and competitor coupons when shopping!
Hi Liza, I am very interested in being able to donate this season some of the great deals I have been stocking up on. I do however want to ask a question in regard to your explanation of the Warren Backpack program. I don’t mean for this to sound rude but how do homeless children cook meals like the Yakisoba when a microwave is required? Wouldn’t ready to eat foods be necessary? Just wondering since each week I am buying extra items with donating in mind.
You aren’t rude at all – the way I understand everything is that the school defines “homeless” as children without a permanent, stable living environment or home address. These kids typically bounce from foster homes to friends to relatives and to shelters. They do have access (most often) to microwaves. Some literally are living in the streets and obviously microwaveable items are not appropriate for them, BUT many of them can and will use them. Very good question. Let me know if you have any more – I appreciate your willingness to help!
I cant find the Muir Glen cpn does anyone know the zip???
Hi Gery! It may be gone now? I printed it out on three computers this a.m. and didn’t specify the zip.. if you can’t find it now I am thinking it may be gone…
I wasn’t able to find it yesterday either.
I found mine at the Betty Crocker website earlier this evening.
I sure need to get my hands on that new booklet.

For anyone looking for Muir Glen coupons. Check their website…there should be $1.00/1 coupons there. You’ll have to sign up for the Tomato Connoisseur. It should be towards the bottom on their homepage. Also check Betty Crocker’s site. There should be a $.75/1 coupon there as well.
