I have to say that I love Italian days. I had so much fun grocery shopping! Sounds kind of funny till you walk out with 412.26 worth for 52.03 in three trips. Thanks Liza for all the tips

THanks so much for the couponing bible you’ve created! 🙂 I started on your blog about a year or so ago through the recommendation of a friend and since have attended your workshop and became officially ‘addicted’. My husband laughs because I have my coupon box seat belted in my back seat. 🙂 I never knew I could save so much and it helped us through a very difficult time. Thanks to you, I started my first blog! 🙂 Thanks for everything you’ve done for so many of us!

Lisa,
I just had to drop you a quick note…your deal on Hartz Dog Bisquits caught my eye even though you said you had a rain check. So I decided to check them out. Well, they were no longer on sale as BOGO, but they were still $2.99. I had my $2/1 coupon, plus there was a peelie on the box for $1 off, so I got the box for free.
I’m going to see if my dog likes them, and then go back for more! Thanks for the tip!!
Jennifer

Hey Steve – I do shop at a generous Publix.. Oddly enough, though, my store will not let me use the $1/4 Hunt’s AND the $5/20 together. So, the Hunt’s I was able to use the manufacturer and the $1/4 store and then the $1.50 off coupon they took off the price of the bread.. But they will let me use the $1/4 Green Giants and $1/4 Progresso along with the $5/20.. They allowed this because of the wording on the coupons.. Totally confusing and I told my store’s manager that. And, I did tell him they were letting me double up on store coupons but as long as they allow it and realize they are allowing it, I will take advantage of the deal 😉

Hey Liza, Wish my Publix had a coupon policy like your store! Looks like they let you use manufacturer coupons and 3 store coupons on each can of Hunt’s tomatoes ($1/4, $1.50/Bread and $5/20). Still don’t understand why they allowed the $1.50/Bread coupon since it says sauce and paste and shows pictures of sauce and paste cans (not tomatoes).

Hey Amy! I asked my store if I could use that coupon and they allowed it because one of the $1/4 Hunt’s Publix Italian Days coupons showed diced/canned tomatoes in the picture.. This is definitely one of those coupons I would ask your customer service to see how they would handle it.. Great question!

Hey Liza, How were you able to use the 1.50 off bread wyb 6 hunt’s tomato sauces or pastes when you bought tomatoes?
Thank you!

I noticed you used the $1.50 off Publix Bakery Bread coupons on your purchase of canned tomatoes not sauce or paste as specified on the coupons. How did you manage that?

It was fun to see you too! Thanks for giving me the tip on the beef coupons! You taught me today 🙂 Please email me the pics – I will be posting quite a few next week. My email is addictedtosaving at hotmail dot com (all one word ;))

It was great bumping into you at Publix today Liza! We really got some great deals! I’m loving the fact they let us combine the $1 off fresh beef coupons together. I also chose the ground chuck and used my produce coupon for fresh peppers, so I’ll be making stuffed peppers tomorrow….my favorite!
I must say….I am officially out of room! I stocked up on all the Italian Days deals so my pantry is full for a while!
My total in 2 transactions at Publix….spent $20.84 total with tax included and saved $220.28!!
I did take some pics before putting it all away but needed to do 3 seperate ones due to getting SO much!
Thanks again for all you do Liza…you’re a gem 🙂

I always shop the later part of the sale and look forward to seeing your deals early in the sale so I can plan my trip! Wow, that is some AMAZING savings!!!

Liza, thank you so much for your weekly Photo Show and Tell! This post is so helpful to me in planning my shopping. You always give me ideas of great deals to add to my Publix list. I really appreciate the time you take to type it all out!

In reply to Liza.

That was actually going to be my suggestion. When I called my old store to see if they would take the printed version I was told that they had those sheets sitting on the managers desk so there would be no reason to print them out. They didn’t have them on display anywhere so I had idea that they even had them. She told me to go to customer service to ask for them.

Hey Teresa! To my knowledge there isn’t a print limit but I am not sure… Does your Publix have the coupons hanging on a display? Mine has the sheets hanging on a cardboard display by the Italian Days sales items… Maybe you could ask your customer service if they have the coupons?
