Photo Show and Tell – Publix 9/16/10

Wow.  Looking at this picture I definitely see a ton of carbs.  Eek.  Good thing I share my food with others 🙂  I had a marvelous Publix trip today.  It was a trip that I threw together very quickly this morning.  I focused on the sales items and grabbed a bag of lettuce and a dozen eggs and one lone banana for after my long run on Sunday.  I splurged on the Doritos.  They are on sale but I had no coupons.  And, I don’t normally buy chips.  I’m regretting it already considering I consumed quite a bit despite that the fact that they have been in my house for less than 8 hours.  UGH.  I did awesome though.  I saved 95.2% and I have a ton of food to stockpile away and to give away which makes me very happy.

Also – Attention Bloggers – at the bottom of this post is a place for you to link up your deals!  So, make sure you leave a link to your shopping trip successes this week.  I am looking for your personal deals not a list of store sales/coupon matchups!  And, make sure this is a direct link to your deals – I will remove links that go to your home page.

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