What a huge haul we had this week! For the first time in a long time, I found myself taking advantage of lots of deals from the current Grocery Advantage Flyer! There are some great deals in the current flyer so make sure you don’t overlook them! Hubby really really wanted to take advantage of the Gatorade & Propel deal. And I really really wanted to take advantage of GoGo Squeez Applesauce and Riceworks Rice Crisps deals. I’m still missing the $5 off $30 Winn-Dixie coupons. Every time I shop I think that I should be spending $5.00 less. But that is life right? 🙂
We’ve had an awesome week. Our week has spent potty training our two year old. He’s been going potty for the past 3 months all at his own prompting. So this week, we decided to switch him over to big boy undies. What a process. So exhausting and yet rewarding! Monday he had around 6 accidents. Tuesday 2. And then all of a sudden, something has seemed to click! We’ve still had near accidents and starts of accidents, put he is doing amazing. We’ve been rewarding him with M&M’s. And Tuesday we started a Thomas the Train Potty Chart. When all of the bubbles are filled, he get to choose a donut from Dunkin’ Donuts. Below is a picture of his reward from Wednesday night. We walked to DD’s and ate a late night donut. In retrospect, I probably wouldn’t recommend getting a two year old a large donut at 7:30 at night, but we were so proud of him and he was so excited so we threw caution to the wind. He is one bubble away from getting another prize on his Thomas Chart. So fun.
How did you do this week?
Please remember that you do not see any chicken or ground beef purchased because we have stocked up on boneless, skinless chicken breasts and ground beef with Zaycon Foods. **Right now Zaycon Foods is taking reservations for their upcoming Salmon, Cod, Ham, Chicken Tenders and more Events!

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..
Love your info. Thanks for sharing.
Welcome Kim! 🙂
Have you had any luck getting the Pepsi Publix gift card? I texted my receipt but the instructions were very vague so wanted to talk to someone who had done it 🙂
Having a hard time as well. Texted and emailed pics of my receipt and it keeps gettin rejected due to unreadable date (don’t think it could be any clearer). Going to have to mail it in. Ugh.
Great savings! I miss being able to use my $5 off $30 Winn Dixie coupons, which expired 12/31 and I can’t find any Enjoy the City books with them. Have they stopped participating in the coupon books?
Hi April! Sadly, ETC books have stopped giving us Winn Dixie coupons 🙁 I’m not going to lie – I miss them too! Every week I tell myself that last year I would have saved at least another $5.00! I don’t forsee the coupons coming back either.
