So you have Jeff again this week (aka “hubby”) because Liza is currently enjoying a night on the beach with a friend as a reward for a very long and very hard last 8 days posting what seems like round-the-clock Black Friday/Cyber Monday/Christmas gift ideas. Ironically, I could barely get her to go “relax” because she’s: 1) away from the blog and it makes her nervous; but more importantly, 2) away from her son (who is now quietly nestled in bed), which also makes her nervous! Not to worry, I have everything under control.
So if you’re reading this, Liza, don’t worry – all is well with the world. Enjoy your night away from responsibilities!
Okay, as for the Publix trip. I know she’d want me to mention this, so please remember that you do not see much produce in today’s shopping trip because hubby and I belong to a weekly coop. So, every week, we get a bin full of around 40 lbs of fruits and veggies. We also have stocked up on boneless, skinless chicken breasts and ground beef with Zaycon Foods. **Right now Zaycon Foods is taking reservations for their upcoming $3.49/lb Lean Ground Beef (93/7) Event!

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..
Just a quick question … Awesome job btw but hoe can you use Minus three $1/1 Wheat Thins on a BOGO ?? I am confused sorry.. I am always amazed at how much money is saved but this one has me comfused
No problem, Michelle! Actually, I used four coupons on this BOGO sale. Since I’m buying four items, most Publix’s will allow you to use four manufacturer coupons, even though you’re getting two for free. In this case, I was able to use three $1/1, and one FREE Wheat Thins coupon, which was even better! You can always ask your local Publix to see what their policy is on taking coupons for BOGO items.
