Photo Show and Tell – Publix 3/16/12

Well – I am slowly learning my lesson about doing my weekly Publix shopping trip late in the afternoon on Friday afternoons because all of you have already been there and wiped the shelves clean!  Despite not being able to do the Family Size chips deal that I had planned out in my head, I still did great!  And, for the first time, my store had Kraft Fresh Take in stock so I was excited to finally be able to score six Kraft Fresh Take for free 🙂  I’m especially excited to try the Chili Lime & Panko flavor.  I also was thrilled to see that my Publix had lots of  Blue Diamond Soy and Wasabi Almonds.  That is our favorite flavor and I don’t think I’ve ever been able to get this good of a deal on them.  So, my hubby and I are very happy!   My only disappointment for today was realizing that I left my $2.00 off Publix bakery coupon at home.
