Photo Show & Tell: Weight Watchers Frozen Desserts, Playtex Dropins, Margaritaville Shrimp and MORE

Hey guys! This is Liza taking over the weekly Photo Show & Tell this week!  Hubby did an amazing job of maintaining Addicted to Saving, our weekly shopping trips as well as the house while I was in Ethiopia.  This week I knew that I wanted to start doing our weekly shopping trips again.  I went into some “supermarkets” in Ethiopia to purchase baby supplies for Asher and let’s just say that the supermarkets in Addis Ababa are WAY different from the stores here.  The stores here are a breath of fresh air.  Next week I will write more about my time in Ethiopia when I can sit down and formulate my thoughts.  Right now, life is a bit crazy as Asher is adjusting to life here with us.  My main hope is that he will adjust to the time change sooner than later.  Waking up to a wide eyed, crying baby at 4:25 am is getting a bit old for this mama.

I had a $25.00 Publix gift card to use on this shopping trip.  Before the gift card, my total was $31.01 on everything pictured above.  After the gift card, I spent a marvelous $6.01 on everything.  You will start to see that my shopping trips will include more and more baby items.  I was excited about purchasing 50 Playtex Dropins for just $1.29 after coupons.  And I know that Cheerios were just on sale BOGO, but my little boy is quite the fan of Cheerios so I paid full price (minus a $0.50 coupon) so that I can have this snack on hand at any time.  Life has definitely changed in my household!

If you shop at a Publix that accepts Winn Dixie coupons, you might notice that every week I use a $5.00 off $30.00 Winn Dixie Enjoy the City coupon while grocery shopping. Right now Enjoy the City coupon books are on sale for as low as $1.33 each! (Each book has FOUR $5/$30 Winn Dixie coupons!) When I factor the cost of the coupon book with the $20.00 worth of coupons in it, each book is an $18.76 MONEYMAKER! Go HERE to see the Enjoy the City deal.
