Liza — Sat, 15 Jun 2013 22:22:55 +0000

I have to say that Liza’s weekly Photo Show & Tell at Publix that she posts on Friday is probably my favorite post of the week. I always check it out before doing my weekly shopping trip each Saturday. I must say that I have missed her this week! So this morning when I woke up I decided to give this thing a try on my own!

Photo Show & Tell – Publix 7/20/12

Liza — Fri, 20 Jul 2012 22:48:15 +0000

I don’t know about you but I’ve had a long week! I’m thankful the weekend is here to give me a chance to mentally regroup a little. For me, Publix’s sales haven’t been that enticing lately. So I’m finding that I’m not looking as forward to going shopping each week. Typically, I like to use each week’s shopping trip as a chance to stock up on great deals and then purchase the necessities. I’m finding less and less stockpile opportunities lately. I was happy that I was able to stack quite a few Publix or Target store coupons with manufacturer coupons. This week I was also excited to splurge on a family size container of Sabra Hummus (for me) and two Totino’s Pizzas (for hubby). Hopefully you all had a successful week shopping!

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 3/23/12

Liza — Fri, 23 Mar 2012 21:27:19 +0000

It was a great day to shop at Publix! I ended up spending much less than I anticipated. And, I was able to get some fruit and veggies for the new juicer I just got. I haven’t tried my juicer yet (I’m scared :)) but I’m excited to try out some recipes for fresh juice! **If you have a juicer, I would love it if you would leave some juicing tips and recipes! I was able to score some great deals thanks to a lot of store and manufacturer coupon matchups. My major challenge for the day today was paying attention to sizes on the coupons. For example, the Free Kraft Macaroni & Cheese coupons only covered the 7.25 oz sized boxes of the Kraft Mac & Cheese on sale BOGO. Most of the Kraft Mac & Cheese on sale were smaller boxes. This happened for a couple of other deals I took advantage of so my message to all of you is to really read your coupons to make sure they work on the items you are buying. If they don’t work, the store will not be reimbursed for them.

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.

What a week! Last week I was thankful about the fact that I never got my husband’s sickness. Well, maybe the thankfulness was a bit presumptuous because late Monday night I got sick and I’m still hanging onto it. Not fun. Today has been a busy day for us so I put together today’s Publix shopping list and sent my husband to tackle the sales. Meanwhile, I went with our puppy to the vet for his third round of shots where I left with a $200+ vet bill. How in the world does that happen?!? Hubby did really well at Publix though. He used six of our $2.00/$2.00 Publix produce coupons since they do not limit one coupon per customer (he also asked the produce manager for permission ;)).

I can not believe how time is flying! My husband and I had an afternoon Publix date today and I realized that I haven’t been to Publix in two weeks since last weekend I was in Nashville! We had a great time in Nashville learning about blogging, meeting other bloggers and meeting Joe Jonas and Rascal Flatts. This week took a bit of time getting into the swing of things as we have been battling exhaustion and colds. But we are on the mend and I’m thankful for that!

Today’s Publix shopping trip wasn’t the most amazing in the world. I was focusing on a lot of “healthier” options today so we spent a little more then I would have liked. But, it is worth it. Would rather save just 50% and get all healthy food versus save 100% and get all junk. (Don’t get me wrong – I like my junk food – I’m just trying to focus on having a primarily healthy diet.) I actually contemplated going on a cleanse this week. Not so much as to lose weight as to get rid of the toxins in my system and to lose some of my cravings for junk food. Have any of you done that before? Would love to hear your thoughts as well as the type of cleanse you did.

Also – as a note for the items I purchased below, I was able to use the $0.50/1 Maggi Soup Mix coupon to score FREE soup mix. The verbiage on the coupon is extremely confusing so I can not promise your store will honor it the way mine did.

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 2/10/12

Liza — Sat, 11 Feb 2012 02:25:10 +0000

We have had another busy week and yet again I waited until the last minute to go grocery shopping. We’ve been working a lot on our adoption paperwork for our Haiti adoption and it seems that we have such a neverending list of things to do (adoption and non-adoption related) that life is a little overwhelming. I love lists and I love crossing out items on the list. Right now I just don’t see our list shortening – instead it seems to get longer by the second. I don’t know if that is what happens when you are grown up? Hubby and I took a break from life and had a date night at Publix (so NOT romantic – let me tell you). We ended our date with making a frozen pizza for dinner. Gotta love it! I didn’t have the most success today at Publix. While there are some good sales, I wasn’t overwhelmed with them. And, I did spend more then I would have liked to today. My husband wanted me to get two of the POM drinks which were a deal but not that good of a deal. Same thing for the Resolve. I was SUPER excited for the Weiman Stove Top cleaner sale. I’ve never tried this product before it was a great deal and I’m always trying to keep my glass-top clean.

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 1/27/12

Liza — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 02:03:20 +0000

Are these weeks flying by for you guys too? Another week has come and gone and it has been a whirlwind for my husband and I. (I will post more about that next week.) So, to celebrate tonight being Friday, my husband and I had a Publix date night. And now we are home and I’m typing up this Photo Show & Tell while he is warming up leftovers from last night. Yup. We are that boring! This week’s sale wasn’t too impressive for me but I still was able to do a pretty good job at Publix. Last night we picked up ground beef and bacon from the local Zaycon Foods event so we now have enough boneless, skinless chicken breasts, ground beef and bacon to feed a small army. So yet again, I focused on the good sales at Publix and tried to maximize the sales with coupons. My favorite deal that I did tonight was the LaCroix Sparkling Water deal – I love that water and with the $1.00 off coupons, each can ended up being right around 10 cents!

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 1/6/12

Liza — Sat, 07 Jan 2012 01:14:29 +0000

Anyone else happy it is Friday? We got in early Tuesday morning from spending almost a week in St Louis and it took me a couple of days to recover on lost sleep. And then today was a busy day – I was used as a hair model for the celebrity hair stylist David Evangelista this morning on Daytime. I can’t say I love what he did to my hair, but he was a lot of fun and it was a new experience for me. (A motto I gave myself last year was to never close the door on random opportunities that present themselves to me.)

So, with the lack of energy this week and with the busy day I had today, I wasn’t excited about going shopping tonight. And truthfully, I probably wouldn’t have shopped if I didn’t have to do this Photo Show & Tell. Well, for my first shopping trip since before Christmas, this is/was a pretty bad one. The sales are decent but I just didn’t have enough coupons to really get good deals. And, while I posted a ton of hot coupons on January 1st and 2nd, I was working from my inlaw’s house in St Louis so I didn’t print ANY of the coupons I posted about. Lesson learned. Had I printed the coupons from the 1st and 2nd, I would have gotten better deals today. I’m also swimming in fresh $1.69/lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts from the Zaycon Foods deal I posted about earlier this week. So, with my stockpile and tons of meat, I don’t need that much.

Today I was able to get some fresh produce. And, I got over $25.00 worth of groceries so I was able to save $10.00 on a gas card. I was pleased about that.

On the homefront, below is an updated picture of the newest addition to our family. Louie (short for Luigi) is almost 11 weeks old. He’s a lot of fun, beyond adorable and a lot of work. Our 7 year old dog (Pacey) is starting to become accustomed to the fact that Louie is in fact staying and while the two of them are not yet buddies, I see a promising future. (We took the picture below while I made dinner tonight. He fell asleep on his stuffed animal. Too cute.)

Well – as you can see from the picture above, there wasn’t much space left on our kitchen table after today’s shopping trip! So today I sent my husband armed and dangerous to Publix. I gave him a detailed grocery list and put together the scenarios and then sent him on his way. I’m fortunate because by now, after hearing me speak at dozens of seminars, he fully understands couponing. So, when I send him out, I very seldom worry. Today he did excellent. My only complaint is that didn’t get me whole grain Ritz crackers. But if that is my only complaint, we are doing good!

We did really well today – total spent was $28.97 on everything above I was especially excited about the Zephyrhills Sparkling water deal. I love sparkling water and would drink that any day over soda or juice. So to get 12 bottles for free was an awesome blessing! In my notes below, I also give you a different scenario for Zephyrhills. We got our bottles for free but not with much overage. If you would prefer the overage, see my note below.

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 12/9/11

Liza — Fri, 09 Dec 2011 23:31:34 +0000

Well, it has been a long week for us! I found this week to be a slow week at Publix, but despite that, I certainly seemed to have bought a lot! I used one $5.00 off $30.00 Publix coupon, one Free $10.00 Target Gift Card when you spend $50+ AND a $10.00 off $100.00 American Express Gift Card when you buy $25.00+ in groceries. SO, I had to spend $105.00 worth of groceries before coupons which was a very difficult feat this week. Fortunately, I still had six $5.00 off Bengay coupons and the Bengay was on sale for $5.99. So, I was able to add $35.94 worth of groceries just by getting the Bengay. (And, I will put it to good use as I’m sidelined with an injury right now. That is another story though. sigh.) I’m still loving the zucchini and squash sales! And, I meant to buy a cantaloupe but forgot (it is on sale 2/$4.00 which is a great price). **I didn’t include the AMEX gift card in my final totals since I look at it basically as a gift card to put towards future grocery shopping trips The AMEX deal really isn’t that good when you factor in the activation fee.

How did you do this week shopping? I hope you were able to spend less and save more than I did! Please leave a comment letting everyone know how you did!

Photo Show & Tell – Publix 12/2/11

Liza — Fri, 02 Dec 2011 23:34:03 +0000

From the comments that many of you were making this week, I don’t know how many of you will actually be shopping? This week just wasn’t the greatest in terms of sales and coupons at Publix. That said, since I took last week off of a Photo Show and Tell (Thanksgiving and Black Friday constitute as good excuses!), I wanted to make sure and give it a good try today and get my Publix run up for you all. There were a couple of highlights to mention, including the $1.30/box Golden Grahams (unfortunately the print limit may be reached on that item), the $0.14 Muir Glen Pasta Sauce (print limit may also be reached on this), and can I admit to you I’m excited to try the Chung’s Egg Rolls, which were only $1.10? My husband has this weird thing where he likes potato chips in the middle of our long runs (he’s training with me for my marathon), so the FREE Kettle chips were a nice splurge (for him, that is).

How did you do this week shopping? I hope you were able to spend less and save more than I did! Please leave a comment letting everyone know how you did!

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 11/18/11

Liza — Sat, 19 Nov 2011 01:25:31 +0000

Well… I don’t have many words for this past week. It was a great week in that I had three speaking engagements and was able to speak to and with over 150 people. It was bad because from Tuesday through today there have been website gliches that have robbed me of sleep and have taken me away from posting like I normally do. I’ve learned a lot this week though and I’ve found myself constantly reminding myself that it could always be worse. So – for those of you who have been patient with me this week as I’ve missed deals, missed matchups, not responded to emails, etc, thank you for your patience. I am hoping that starting this upcoming week, everything will go back to normal. They better because I’m looking forward to posting hundreds of deals on Black Friday and Cyber Monday! So, get excited – if you decide you want to buy your Christmas presents online this year, I’ll be throwing lots of time sensitive deals your way next weekend!

Now – to Publix. This is an AWESOME week to shop at Publix. As you can see from the picture above, I bought A TON of food. So much that when they bagged my groceries, the bagger brought a second cart to load all of my stuff. (Love it when that happens ;)) I took advantage of a ton of amazing deals but also of a lot of the great produce deals available this week. I received the $5.00 Publix Gift Card from the Kellogg’s Mail in Rebate this past summer so I used that. And, I used one of the free $25.00 American Express gift cards I received from the freebie I posted about HERE. So, after coupons and the two free gift cards, I spent $9.57. Not too shabby! That is on $207 worth of groceries! LOVE it!

**Update – I did receive a comment on Facebook regarding the fact that I used the $25 American Express gift card at a large grocery store versus a small chain. Let me address that. I used it because when I posted about receiving my cards in the mail (earlier this week), I took a picture of the cards and didn’t think about covering the gift cards # on it. I received two anonymous emails about this and I was concerned the cards had already been used by a reader.. So, I used it today because I wanted to use it asap. I guess if I really think about it, I am a small business and so while I didn’t put it towards another business, I did help my business by lowering my out of pocket expenses for this week

How did you do this week shopping? I hope you were able to spend less and save more than I did! Please leave a comment letting everyone know how you did!

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 11/4/11

Liza — Sat, 05 Nov 2011 01:05:28 +0000

This was not one of the best sales weeks at Publix but I was able to do a decent job. I really needed to get a bit of produce so that brought my out of pocket costs up. And, I bought a package of fresh boneless, skinless chicken breasts which as many of you know, I don’t need (since I have 65+ pounds frozen away in my freezer). But, I had a $1.00 off Publix chicken coupon that an awesome reader sent me. And, the chicken had a $1.00 off Shake ‘n Bake & Chicken peelie on it so I was able to get a box of Shake ‘n Bake as well. My favorite deal of the night was by far the Swanson Chicken Broth. I use this on a weekly basis in soups, pastas and more so I’m excited to have been able to buy 8 boxes. I just wish I had more coupons to buy more! I did mistakingly buy the wrong Vlasic pickles that were not included in the sale.. Such a bummer. And, no, I probably will not return them. I did, however, end up spending more out of pocket than I should have since I screwed up.

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 10/27/11

Liza — Fri, 28 Oct 2011 15:00:11 +0000

I had a great Publix shopping trip yesterday! My schedule today is crazy so I wanted to get my shopping out of the way today. It was a great trip. I had numerous free coupons I had received in the mail that were expiring 10/31 so I used many of them. I also took full advantage of the Hefty One Zip deal. $0.70 per box of Hefty One Zip freezer bags is an awesome price! I can’t say that this week’s sales are outstanding but it was an awesome stockpile week for Hefty Bags and for Caribou Coffee (especially if you have the $2/1 coupon). And, a special thanks to my Orlando friend who sent me a $2/1 Caribou coffee coupon to use this week I also was able to score numerous FREE Oral-B toothbrushes! Please note that I used four $2/1 coupons as well as two $1/1 Publix and two $1/1 manufacturer coupons. If you use the $2/1 coupons listed below, note that they limit, “four coupons per transaction”.

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 10/22/11

Liza — Sat, 22 Oct 2011 16:23:04 +0000

Sorry this is late everyone! I have received many emails from you all asking where my weekly Photo Show and Tell is! I actually did my shopping yesterday (Friday) but when I started working on this post, a family emergency took me from my computer. But I am back this morning and getting this post up although I didn’t find this week’s sales to be that spectacular. I did get four big bags of candy which when I add it to the two bags I bought last week, I’m thinking I am probably almost ready for trick-or-treaters. Our street typically gets slammed with trick-or-treaters so I have to get a ton of candy to keep up with the kiddos! (And, having a little left over isn’t necessarily a bad thing is it? ;)) I did take advantage of the amazing Digiorno Cheese deal. I was able to get six containers of Parmesan cheese for $1.20. That was an amazing deal. The other deals I took advantage of were just so/so. I had a $5/$30 Winn Dixie and a $5/$30 Publix coupon so I wanted to make sure I bought $60.00 worth of items (before using coupons) to take advantage of both coupons.

How did you do this week shopping? I hope you were able to spend less and save more than I did! Please leave a comment letting everyone know how you did!

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 10/14/11

Liza — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 21:58:22 +0000

Well, as you all know, this week’s Publix ad is a bit sparse with deals. I am really disappointed by it. I probably would have skipped shopping entirely but I know many of you are used to reading my Photo Show and Tells so I forced myself to go. And then I spent more than I would have wanted to on what seemed like not many groceries. I did buy some necessities such as eggs, milk and bread. And I thought I was taking advantage of the Flatout Wraps deal (we love Flatout Wraps) UNTIL I realized that I totally bought the wrong kind! Please do not make the same mistake I did. If you look at my wraps in the picture above, note that that kind IS NOT on sale. UGH. Such a bummer. No wonder I spent a little more out of pocket than I expected.

How did you do this week shopping? I hope you were able to spend less and save more than I did! Please leave a comment letting us know how you did!

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 10/7/11

Liza — Fri, 07 Oct 2011 22:10:46 +0000

I had a great day at Publix today! I shopped at a different Publix today so I was a bit uneasy as to how they are accepting coupons. But, they were great. I had a couple of questions couponwise and they answered all of them. The Publix I shopped at today accepts Target and Winn Dixie coupons so I was able to maximize a lot of the coupons and sales by using both a manufacturer coupon along with either a Publix store or a Target store coupon. As a reminder, you should always find out what stores your Publix accepts as competitors. I had a great day though! Was able to get a bit of produce (we are going to be away for a couple of days traveling for my upcoming Addicted to Saving 101 class so I didn’t need much/anything for this weekend) and I started stocking up on canned vegetables and condensed soup. *Tip* think ahead to the upcoming holidays. If you make casseroles over the holidays, buy the ingredients when they are on sale and you have a coupon to match with it. That way you don’t have to pay full price!

I have two disclaimers to make (what else is new? ;)). First of all, I bought four Air Wick Ribbon Scents Candle. I wasn’t sure if this type of candle is covered under the Publix store coupon so I asked customer service and they allowed it. That said, your store may treat this differently so ask before purchasing. And secondly, I bought four Covergirl Blush and used two $8/2 Covergirl Face Products coupon. Some stores may give you a problem on this. However, if you go to Covergirl’s website, you will see that under their Face Products category, blush is included. I am telling you this so that if your store gives you a hard time, you can kindly (yes, kindly) tell them (or print out and show them) that blush is included under Face Products on their website.

Please leave a comment and let me know how you did this week! Would love to hear if you did better than I did!

If you are thinking that I bought a lot today at Publix, you are 100% correct! I had quite the haul today! I wasn’t planning on buying quite this much – or should I say that as I printed my grocery list, I wasn’t picturing quite as much stuff as I ended up with! I got a ton of food. And, I spent a bit more than I probably would have liked. But, I had the $10.00 gift card I received a couple weeks ago so I knew that would help a little. And, we are going to have four house guests staying with us for a few weeks this month and I am desperately trying to make sure I have lots of food for them. I’ve told them that I expect them to eat all of my food and clean out my stockpile for me. We’ll see if that happens!

A few notes regarding my purchases.. First, the Eight O Clock coffee is a great deal – I would have bought even more (remember we go through coffee like it is water) but their coupons were not printing out for me. I received an email from them yesterday that they are having problems with their coupons so once their site is up and running again, I will buy even more. The second note for you is that you may be able to tell I bought 6 jars of Ragu Pizza Sauce. I may go back for more. There are no coupons for the sauce but as I told you in this week’s Publix weekly ad, it is on sale BOGO. It is very seldom on sale BOGO so I stocked up – especially since the expiration date is 2013. AND – thanks to many of you – I had my mom pick me up a box of Sam’s Club pizza dough!! Oh my gosh – what an amazing deal! So, I have plenty of dough just asking to be made! Lastly, my third note for you is that I bought 6 boxes of Chicken Hamburger Helper (or whatever the chicken mixes are called). I’m not sure if I will even like it, but as I said above, I will have a housefull soon. AND, I have at least 80 pounds of chicken that needs to be cooked. So, I figure that in a pinch, I’ll try the Chicken Helper. Have you guys tried it? Do you like it? I think that is it for my side notes! Feel free to leave a comment with any questions you might have!

Please leave a comment and let me know how you did this week! Would love to hear if you did better than I did!

Whew! What a busy week. Today we filmed the second edition of Daytime’s Super Savers Club. This Wednesday, 9/28/11, Daytime (10 am on NBC if you live in Tampa Bay) will air our first edition so set your DVRs! Because of today’s filming, this shopping trip was actually completed last night. I really wish I had more to show you all, but as you probably know, it was another slow week at Publix! My Welch’s Grape Jelly coupons were about to expire, so I can’t complain about $0.59 jelly, and the $5/1 BenGay coupon just had to be used, even though the $5.99 Ultra Strength had already been wiped clean (grrrr!). So we’ll try out the $7.69 Pain Relief + Massage on my husband, as he’s getting older and needs all the pain relief and massage he can get.

Please leave a comment and let me know how you did this week! Would love to hear if you did better than I did!

What a slow week at Publix! I always try to go grocery shopping each week because I know many of you like to see the deals I’m buying. But truthfully, if I wasn’t blogging, I would have taken this week off besides for the $0.50 Optic White toothpaste and the Van’s Waffles. Fingers crossed next week is a better week!

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 9/9/11

Liza — Fri, 09 Sep 2011 19:35:23 +0000

It has been another crazy week over here! Time is flying and I can’t believe that it is already almost the middle of September. Crazy! Today’s Publix trip was another great one! We did spend a bit more than I would probably like – especially since I’ve already been to Publix twice this month prior to today. But, I didn’t think that this week’s sales flyer was very impressive. So, with the sales being less than stellar – especially considering the lack of coupons to use on the current sales – I knew that we would end up spending a bit more out of pocket than we would like. I did want to make a note that I have used multiples of the same Publix coupons from the Toss 4 Cash coupon booklet. My store allowed this because the coupons do not limit “one per customer” or “one per purchase.” Also – we asked customer service if we could use the T.G.I. Friday’s Entree for One coupons on the sales items and we were told yes. Definitely ask your customer service prior to doing that deal as I have a feeling stores will vary on how to handle this situation.

Leave a comment and let me know how you did this week at Publix! Did you find any great deals??

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 9/2/11

Liza — Fri, 02 Sep 2011 18:43:44 +0000

Well, you can see from my picture above that I had an overflowing grocery cart today during my Publix shopping trip. Since we spent less than $3.00 on $67.00 worth of groceries last week (go HERE to see last week’s Photo Show and Tell), I gave myself a little leeway to spend a bit more than I normally like. And, when I saw this huge rack of Spareribs priced at $1.99/lb, I had to get them – even though I knew that would increase my out of pocket spending. But, I have an amazing barbecue spare ribs crock pot recipe that I haven’t made in ages so I forsee a crock pot meal occurring early next week in my household. (A huge plea goes out to my husband, who I know is reading this, to cut the ribs for me :))

I also stumbled upon bags of California Sun Dried Tomatoes on sale for $1.00 each! This is a great price – even without a coupon! Oh – and I did encounter a small problem using the Free Oikos Greek Yogurt coupons from Parade Magazine. The coupons state Free Dannon Oikos Yogurt but my Publix had Stonyfield Oikos Yogurt. And while the Stonyfield Oikos yogurt looks 100% like the pictured “free coupon” and while the fine print mentions both Dannon and Stonyfield, I wasn’t able to use the coupon. This wasn’t a big deal to me but I wanted to give all of you a head’s up on this. (The coupon expires 9/4/11.)

Liza — Fri, 26 Aug 2011 21:01:35 +0000

Well, like I think I said last week, another week has come and gone! Time is flying! Today’s Publix trip consisted mainly of a few necessities (grapes and squash – these grapes are priced nicely and have been SO good). Today’s trip also consisted of using some of the free coupons I have received in the mail the past couple of months. Many of my free value coupons expire this 8/31 so if you have any coupons in your stash at home go through to make sure you don’t let them expire!

I had sent my husband to Publix earlier this week for more salmon, so right now we have tons of chicken and salmon frozen away. I’m still waiting on a good deal on ground beef.. Although, to be totally upfront, with the ground beef recall recently, I will probably refrain from purchasing any for the next couple of weeks. To give you a head’s up, I realize that today’s shopping trip isn’t the most nutritious. My stockpile is full of really everything that I could need. So, today I created a grocery list around the great freebies available and also around the soon to be expiring coupons that I have.

I can’t believe it is Friday again! These weeks are absolutely flying by! Life has been busy in our household – we have had lots of paperwork and projects that we have been working on. Throw in another television taping two days ago as well as maintaining this website and life is a whirlwind. (A good whirlwind..but a tiring one!) I have been encouraged by Publix’s sales lately. I think they are getting better. I did awesome today at Publix. And a huge thanks to Melissa for surprising me with the awesome FREE $10.00 Publix gift card when you spend $50.00+ at Publix coupon. (She received this coupon in the mail and she knows I never receive them :)) I was able to use that coupon today and if I factor the free $10 gift card I received, I ended up spending just $12.57 on everything pictured above.

And to update you on Zaycon Foods, they emailed me and said they were in the midst of planning on coming down to our area in October hopefully. So, if you haven’t gotten on their email waiting list, make sure you do it. The more interest they see in our areas, the quicker they will come down and sell us awesome deals on chicken breasts, ground beef and more. If you are unaware of Zaycon Foods, go HERE to read how to score awesome deals on boneless, skinless chicken breasts.

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

My husband was out running errands and I sent him to Publix with a short grocery list. He did amazing. I really wanted to stock up on some salmon so we bought 3 pounds and I will cook some tonight and then freeze at least 2 pounds of it. There are not a ton of items on my kitchen table, but the only item we had to pay for was the salmon and after coupons and Sundown Vitamins overage, we ended up spending only $5.51/lb on the salmon! Not too shabby!

Today’s Publix shopping trip was a fun one! I’ve had a jam packed week so walking through Publix and spending a little time away from my computer was refreshing. (I must say that sometimes it is so nice to be able to take advantage of the deals I post ;)) I replenished my dwindling pasta sauce stockpile and I was able to score what seemed like tons of awesome deals! I did take advantage of the $10.00 off $50.00 Gas Gift Card deal. This is a great deal if you can afford to spend $40.00 on a gas card! I didn’t add the gift card into my amount spent (shown below) because the gas card goes under our gas budget. I also want to make a note that I used 10 of the $0.75/1 Bertolli Sauce Target store coupons (found in the 8/7/11 Target Insert – I ordered the inserts online since my papers didn’t include them). I normally only use one Target coupon in one transaction but these coupons did not limit one coupon per transaction. Despite this, not all stores will allow you to use multiples of the same coupon so ask your customer service first to make sure you can do it.

I’m still set on chicken. I have at least 30 lbs of boneless, skinless, chicken breast stockpile courtesy of Zaycon Foods, go HERE to read how to score awesome deals on boneless, skinless chicken breasts. I do need, however, lean ground beef so I will have to find a good deal soon.

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 8/5/11

Liza — Fri, 05 Aug 2011 15:45:19 +0000

I so badly want to tell you I saved a ton of money yesterday (Thursday) at Publix. But really, the savings were sparse. In fact, I think I saved the lowest amount. I had two gift cards to use so I actually spent $0.00 out of pocket, but my savings were a bit disappointing nonetheless. I was in need of a few necessities and then wanted to stock up on peanut butter. So many of you have been emailing me about your disappointment on not just Publix’s sales but other stores as well. My advice is to hang in there. Publix has definitely given us a few weeks of less than stellar sales. I’ve been fortunate because I have food and toiletries stockpiled away to carry me through this time. If you are new to couponing, do not get discouraged. Do you best to stock up on the great deals that are available (like the Skippy deal) and then buy the necessities that you need. Tomorrow is a new day and let’s hope that next week’s sale(s) are better!

If you missed my post last week about my HUGE 40 lb boneless, skinless, chicken breast stockpile courtesy of Zaycon Foods, go HERE to read how to score awesome deals on boneless, skinless chicken breasts. Zaycon Foods will be holding events in our area and I can not wait! Read my post for more info

I hope you all have had a great week! My week was busy with a capital “B” but great nonetheless! A huge thanks to everyone who came to last night’s Addicted to Saving 101 class! What an awesome turnout! And, a special thanks to the lady who made her family celebrate her birthday last Sunday, even though her actual birthday was yesterday. She said her family thought she was crazy to choose to go to a “couponing class” on her birthday. She ended up winning one of the prizes I gave away so I’m hoping the prize made up for the missed time with her family!

Today was yet another great day at Publix. If you think that I didn’t buy a lot, you are totally correct. Because of my HUGE frozen chicken stockpile courtesy of Zaycon Foods, (go HERE to read how to score awesome deals on boneless, skinless chicken breasts), I needed only some fresh produce. I focused on some of the stockpile priced deals and also used some of the “free value” coupons I have that are expiring 7/31/11. Hopefully you saved the $2.00/3 Kellogg’s Pop-Tarts coupons I posted about earlier this month because now is the time to use them! As you will see below, I scored an awesome deal on the 6 boxes of Pop-Tarts pictured above!

Please leave a comment on this post with all of the deals (Publix and other stores) you have snagged this week! Brag away – we all love to read about it!

Has it been a long week for anyone besides myself? I tell you what – I am so happy that today is Friday and that the weekend is here! Today has been a challenge for me. I’m not going to lie – I work a lot on this website. A lot. But I love doing this and I love interacting with all of you so it is worth it. But some days just drain me! Yesterday and today were two of those days. It seemed like every deal I posted – even with research – was gone within just a couple minutes. Or the deal didn’t work. Or the deal wasn’t what it seemed it would be. Or there are coding issues on my website which cause me to spend 45 minutes trying to figure out what exactly is going on.. While I know you all appreciate my posting deals every day and I am so thankful for that, I always put a lot of pressure on myself to make sure every thing I do on Addicted to Saving is perfect. And I’m so not perfect. (Emphasis on the word so) And so, with a long week beginning to wind down, today I knew that I had to go to Publix. And, as some of you might agree, I don’t think this week’s sales are anything to brag about at Publix. So, I contemplated just skipping this week. (We really needed only milk & eggs..) But, my husband came to the rescue saying that I needed to post my weekly Photo Show and Tell for all of you and he went armed with coupons and my printable grocery list prepared to do battle (while I stayed home and used the elliptical ;)).

It really is a slow week at Publix. If you have a full stockpile, I wanted to tell you that it is okay if you take this week off at Publix. Do not feel like you have to go shopping just because it is a new week with new sales. Sometimes, the best thing to do is to take a break (or send your hubby as I did)!

I really hope you guys are all having a great week! Please leave a comment on this post with all of the deals (Publix and other stores) you have snagged this week! Brag away – we all love to read about it!

This was an awesome week to shop at Publix. We live on coffee (I’m drinking a cup right now) and so I bought 8 bags of Eight O Clock coffee. (I may go back for more – yes we drink THAT much coffee) And, we LOVE Feta Cheese so I was able to stock up on 8 containers of President Feta. (This type of cheese freezes really well.) I am actually using a new computer we just got and can you believe I still haven’t figured out how to hook it up to our printer? So, my goal is to figure it out before the sale is over so I can print out two more $3/2 feta cheese coupons. The feta and coffee are at rock bottom prices but are still a bit “pricey”, so I went into Publix today knowing I would be spending more than usual. It was a great day to snag a few freebies – Zantac, Papermate Pens, scissors and Kellogg’s Mini Wheats Touch of Fruit. I was also able to share two of my $1.00/1 Kellogg’s Mini Wheats Touch of Fruit coupons with a customer who was standing in the cereal aisle. She was going to get a different type of mini wheats but when I showed her she could get two boxes for $0.99 each with my coupons, she immediately put her boxes away. Love it! I also have to give a huge thank you to Melissa R for sending me the awesome Publix coupon where you get a $10.00 Publix gift card when you spend $50.0. Thank you so much for sharing it with me – I put it to good use today!

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 6/30/11

Liza — Thu, 30 Jun 2011 21:56:51 +0000

I had a great day at Publix today! (Really – when do I not? I love Publix!) I had quite a few free coupons that expired after today so I went today instead of tomorrow/Friday. I came across a few great peelies that scored me great deals. And I was able to really maximize my Target store coupons. Remember that not all Publix locations accept Target coupons so make sure you find out before you start shopping. I think I had a coupon for everything except the eggs, Bush’s Baked Beans and Eagle Condensed Milk. My poor cashier! She was awesome though and she knows all about my website and she coupons but yet never visits meon Addicted to Saving! So, I’m hoping she will join in on the madness along with all of us! Oh – and if you are noticing a lack of produce, I received my delivery from the Organic Produce Groupon deal I posted about HERE. So, with the delivery and the peppers from my garden plus the fact that my hubby and I will be away for a few days, I really didn’t need any produce at all.

**I also did the awesome $10.00 off $50.00 Gas Card deal. I didn’t include that in my total below since that will fall under my gas budget, not grocery budget.

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

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 6/23/11

Liza — Thu, 23 Jun 2011 18:31:57 +0000

I did my Publix shopping trip early this week. Tomorrow I have an appointment during the time that I normally shop, so this week I got an early start on the new Publix sales. I have to admit that I came out of pocket a bit more than I would have desired. ($29.62) When I add that to the $52.00 I’ve already spent this month on groceries, that is a bit more than I normally spend in any given month. But I splurged a little as some of the sales weren’t quite “stock pile” prices. I am finding that when I first started couponing, I really made a game out of my shopping trips. I would literally see how close to $0.00 I could spend out of pocket. But now that I’ve been doing this for years, I’m starting to “relax” a bit and have a bit more fun. (Although, every now and then I make my shopping trips a game so don’t worry, you will see more of my crazy savings trips in the future ;)) I’m also trying hard to keep fresh produce in the house. I may actually have to go back for more soda. My husband and I don’t drink soda, but we are having a house full Saturday and I am thinking the three bottles I bought won’t cut it. If you do buy 2 liters of coke products, be on the lookout for hangtags. Coke 2 liters are on sale B2G1. The hangtag is Buy 2 Coke 2L, Get 1 Coke Zero 2L free. So, with the sale, you get three bottles for the price of one. Also – I scored an awesome deal on Olay Regenerist – with my coupons they came to $0.50 each!

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

I had a quick Publix trip this week. I was in desperate need of milk so my priorities were the milk, eggs, broccoli and apples. Everything else I bought because of the awesome coupons I had. I really wanted to get the Magnum Ice Cream bars because I have the $1.00/1 Target coupon but my RP insert didn’t have the manufacturer’s coupon to go with it – instead my insert just had a one page ad for Magnum. Not cool. I did forget to bring my $2.00/1 fresh produce Publix coupons so while I could have spent less money this week, I will save the money next week as I use the coupons then. I was a bit a lot disappointed to see that the shelves were wiped clean of a lot of the deals I wanted to do. But I have to remember that that is what I get for going grocery shopping after 5 pm on a Friday! **Oh and a funny side note – the lady in line behind me watched me use all of my coupons and proceeded to tell me that she doesn’t use coupons because she only buy organic food at Whole Foods. I look at her grocery cart and in it is 6 cartons of Breyer’s Ice Cream, 4 boxes of Duncan Hines cake mix and then some random odds and ends. Not quite organic is it?

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

Happy Friday! I hope you all have had a great week! This was a busy and yet very productive week for me and I barely eeked in a Publix grocery trip before Publix closed tonight! I wasn’t overly impressed with this week’s sales so I didn’t buy too much. But, I did splurge on Tilapia and I’m super excited to make it! I was also shocked to see that my store had Tylenol Precise in stock so I was happy to get two boxes for free! I also managed to get the Sargento cheese for $0.50 each! Here is how: I used two $1.00/1 Sargento Publix Store coupons (there is no limits on the coupon stating one per transaction) and I used one $1.00 off ANY brand 1 lb shredded, cubed or brick cheese manufacturer coupon. This is a manufacturer coupon that states valid in Florida. Since two Sargento 8 oz bags equal one pound, I was able to use one coupon per two bags of cheese. (I was also allowed to use this on the Cheddar Cheese even though it was an ounce short.) I asked customer service if I could do this transaction prior to doing it. I recommend you do the same.

Photo Show and Tell – Publix and Winn Dixie 6/3/11

Liza — Fri, 03 Jun 2011 19:03:38 +0000

Today is the day for fresh produce! Between my shopping trip at Publix and my shopping trip at Winn Dixie, (where I just bought fresh produce using a gift card I received from transfering a ) I stocked up on a TON of fresh produce. My nutritionist would be so proud of me. Fortunately, my husband and I love salad and veggies so we will be eating lots of meals on a bed of lettuce the next few days! I found an AWESOME deal on the Oscar Mayer Low Sodium Turkey Bacon at Publix. I had a $1/1 Target coupon and a $0.75/1 manufacturer coupon so with both coupons I got the bacon for $1.64 (it was regularly priced at $3.39 at my Publix). Also – if you have any $1.00/1 any Kame product coupons, you can score a can of Kame Water Chestnuts for just $0.34! All of the coupon details are below.

**The Winn Dixie purchase is not pictured. You will have to use your imagination

**Disclaimer**
Not all Publix locations allow overage – mine does. If your Publix does not allow overage, they will usually adjust the value of the coupon down so that you receive the item for free. Also – my Publix allowed me to use two of the same Yellow Advantage Flyer coupons on one of my deals. Not all locations allow this – in fact, most do not.

As you can see from my picture, today’s Publix shopping trip wasn’t a huge trip! This has been a crazy week and it isn’t over yet. I try to work a certain number of hours each day and I can say that this week I definitely went well beyond the limits I set for myself! But, I’m so excited about the new printable grocery list – do you guys like it?? I’m also excited about the morning I had yesterday. Yesterday I went to ABC 10 Action News studio and they taped a piece that is scheduled to air this upcoming Wednesday! My hope is that I spoke at least somewhat intelligently!

During my trip today, I wanted some veggies but besides that, I didn’t stock up on much at all. I’m excited about the Blue Diamond Almonds and my husband will be excited about the Smart Balance spread. I only had two $1.00 off ANY Chinet coupons so I wasn’t able to stock up on the napkins like I wanted. I know many of you asked how to get that coupon – you have to sign up for a Chinet account. Then, Chinet emails you a coupon good for $1.00 off any Chinet product. The Covergirl Blush was a moneymaker as were the Sundown Vitamins. The overage from those items helped my out of pocket spending quite a bit! I ended up getting $8.62 worth of fresh veggies and spent a total of $7.80 on everything pictured. So, I was happy. And, I still had money left on my Publix gift card so I didn’t actually have to spend anything on today’s trip which made me even more happy!

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 5/13/11

Liza — Fri, 13 May 2011 21:20:11 +0000

I was desperately in need of lettuce, onions, green peppers, tomatoes and salt today so those were my priorites when I did my weekly shopping trip. So, I went with a list of veggies I needed and then added in some of the great sales that are going on.

I spoke with management at my store and I am so happy to see that very very little is changing at my Publix. They will be reading the verbiage on the store coupons which they didn’t tend to do in the past, but besides that they are going to add two new grocery stores to their accepted competitor list which will only benefit me! So, I’m thrilled with the new coupon policy! I forsee each store handling the policy differently so I highly recommend you ask customer service how the store will handle situations like duplicate store coupons, overage, dollar off coupons, etc etc. My store (as the coupon policy states) will accept one dollar off (i.e. $5/$30) Publix store coupon and one dollar off competitor coupon in one transaction. That said, you will have to purchase the total amount of the two coupons before using your other coupons. So, if you use two $5/$30, you will have to spend $60 before coupons. That isn’t a problem for me because I never used two dollar off coupons in one transaction! All in all, I think the new policy is wonderful because we have something in writing and while there are still many “gray areas,” at least we have a policy to bring to the store with us! **If you missed my post on the dissecting the Publix policy earlier this week, go HERE.

I took advantage of the Sominex deal and the John Frieda deal but I only did one deal since the Green Advantage flyer verbiage limits one coupon per customer. I did use multiple Vlasic Publix store coupons but that is because there were no limitations on them. The best part about today’s trip is that I spent $0.00 out of pocket since I was using the $25.00 Publix gift card given to me by My Blog Spark and General Mills. Don’t forget to enter to win the $25.00 gift certificate I am giving to one Addicted to Saving Reader (go HERE).

Make Sure You Didn’t Miss Yesterday’s Photo Show and Tell

Liza — Fri, 06 May 2011 22:09:57 +0000

I wanted to make sure you all didn’t miss yesterday’s Photo Show and Tell. I know I usually post my Photo Show and Tells on Fridays so I wanted to post this to make sure you didn’t miss my early posting. Go HERE to read my Photo Show and Tell from yesterday (Thursday, May 5th).

On a side note, I will post pictures of my “garden” early next week. We didn’t end up getting my raised garden (that I affectionately call a sandbox garden) going last weekend. We have a very sick dog on our hands and my husband and I have literally been by his side 24 hours a day since he can’t be left unattended. All this to say, I’m really hoping to get my additional veggie garden going in the next week or so. Do you think that will be too late to plant more veggies?

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 5/5/11

Liza — Thu, 05 May 2011 21:23:30 +0000

I did my weekly Publix shopping trip a day early this week with great results! You can see from the picture that I managed to stock up on Tidy Cats kitty litter. Sadly, my cat doesn’t like this kind of litter but I will gladly donate it to my local vet. Speaking of which – for those of you that don’t have pets, if you are inclined please remember that shelters, animal hospitals, etc are always looking for supplies like litter, food, cleaning products, etc. You can also see that I stocked up on Eight O Clock coffee – that was the goal of my shopping trip today! I have a few more coupons to use so will go and get more coffee before the sale is over. (We go through coffee like it is nobody’s business!) I also scored a few freebies so if we ever have tummy “issues” in our household, we should be covered. I actually went to Publix yesterday to pick up a raincheck on the Bic Soleil razor deal and got some fresh produce. The past 4 weeks I have definitely come out of pocket more than normal.. But I do have a lot to show for it and I’m still happily under budget.

I also took advantage of the gas card deal but didn’t include it in my numbers below since the money I spent will go towards our gas budget. If you are unaware of the deal, in this week’s ad is a coupon for $10.00 off a $50.00 gas card when you spend $25.00 or more. This is an awesome deal as long as you have the $40.00 to cover the cost of the gas card.

Please leave a comment on this post and let me know what deals you have taken advantage of this week!

If I had to sum up my Publix shopping trip today, it would be HELLO CHEESE! I’m armed and ready to make at least two lasagnas and at least one dish of stuffed shells. YUM. Publix has some great sales today and I was so excited to get mozzarella cheese, ricotta and to try out the new Kraft Mozzarella w/ Philly Shredded cheese. I spent a bit more than I desired and expected but I am pleased with 80.6% savings! I also giggled to myself as I put the two bottles of French’s mustard in my shopping cart because I was picturing myself not buying one bottle but 150 like the lady on Extreme Couponing. heehee. I also was able to do the Right Guard deodorant and body wash deal which made me extremely happy.

Hi Everyone! It’s Liza’s friend, Kelly. As you probably read last week, Liza is away and I’ve been filling in for her while she’s been gone. I have to tell you, this is a BIG job and I have a whole new respect for what she does. She really makes my shopping trip so much easier to plan, saving me a ton of time each week and a ton of money! I happen to be a big “copycat” every week and am always excited to see what Liza will do each week at Publix with her coupons. I usually purchase most of the items from her Show and Tell each week. This week, I don’t have her post to look at. I am responsible for it instead. Yikes! That said, I did my best to make Liza proud and to help you all with your trip as well.

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 3/18/11

Liza — Fri, 18 Mar 2011 18:29:38 +0000

Whew! This week flew by! Made a very quick Publix run this morning. I had some coupons expiring 3/31 that I wanted to use and there were a couple sales items I wanted to stock up on! I bought four of the Philadelphia Cooking Cremes. I haven’t tried them yet so will be interested to see how I like them! Have you tried them yet? I also bought another box of Mrs. T’s Pierogies because they are one of my new favorite quick fix meals! (P.S. I had such fun chatting with so many of you on Addicted to Saving’s Facebook page about how you all prepare your Pierogies! The Italian in me has no concept of Pierogies so I learned a lot from all of you! :)) I definitely wasn’t on my “A Game” today though because as I was going through my envelope of coupons while shopping in Publix, I realized the $0.75 off Colgate coupons and the $0.55 off Lay’s coupons were sitting at home on my piano bench right where I left them after cutting them! So, I wasn’t able to stock up on Colgate and get a couple of bags of chips like I planned. I know a lot of you purchase similar items to me so make sure you take advantage of the Colgate deal – even if you don’t use Colgate toothpaste you will only spend $0.25 per tube of toothpaste and this would be awesome to donate or give away. Also – there is a great deal on fresh green beans, zucchini and yellow squash which I would highly recommend you take advantage of!

I also wanted to post a raincheck lesson.. If you use a rain check, make sure your cashier does not start ringing through the items you are purchasing with your rain check until you give him/her your rain check. My cashier started ringing the dog treats through and then had to cancel those treats before ringing them up a different way using the rain check. And then when I got into my car, I realized I was overcharged because two of the bags were not cancelled.. Long story short, I had to go to customer service to get reimbursed. Not a big deal but it definitely made my quick shopping trip not as quick as it could have been!

I also wanted to give all of you a head’s up that my husband and I will be away for a couple of weeks. Don’t worry – nothing is wrong – everyone is healthy and well. We will actually get to see his sister who is currently a missionary/teacher in Africa. She is leaving Africa for a short time so we are excited to get caught up with her a bit. So, here is what will happen while I am away. My friend Kelly will be helping me out. She will post all of the weekly coupon matchups that you have come to expect. You shouldn’t see any differences in the ads and matchups. She will also post a few great deals each day. The only difference is that she will not be working 10+ hours a day like I do. If you find deals, coupons, coupon booklets, etc etc that you think should be posted, please email them to addictedtosaving at hotmail.com (all one word – use the @ sign instead of how I typed out “at”). You never know, Kelly may post a few of your deals! I will be back April 6th and I will start my time back with a couple of great giveaways.. want a sneak peek.. I’m thinking about giving away some high value fruit coupons, a great nutrition book written by one of “The Doctors” and then a surprise courtesy of me. Oh – one more thing – Kelly will post her own Photo Show and Tell for the next couple of weeks so you will get the privilege of seeing a different couponing perspective! I personally can’t wait to see what she buys!

What deals are you liking this week? Did you find any steals that I missed?

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

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 3/5/11

Liza — Sat, 05 Mar 2011 18:09:19 +0000

So you may recall that last night I posted that I wasn’t going to be shopping this week. I had told you how my stockpile was overflowing and that since I was sick I was going to take the week off. Well, I did take the week off, but my husband refused to let all of you down! So, he was a gem and last night did a quick Publix run. I’m still not thrilled with this week’s sales but as you can see, my hubby really took advantage of the Uncle Ben’s deal!

What deals are you liking this week? Did you find any steals that I missed?

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

I am definitely loving Publix’s Italian Days sales! Today is the first time I bought Progresso Soup with their sale. Last week I focused on Green Giant and Progresso Beans.. Well, today I diverted my attention to the soup and Hunt’s tomatoes. Remember that if you are going to do the Italian Days scenarios you need to find out how your Publix handles the Italian Days coupons. Each store has different policies so find out your store’s policy first before you start shopping.

There are a lot of great coupon scenarios for this week’s Publix sales. For example, buy Doritos – save money on Pepsi, buy Pepperidge Farm Bread – save money on produce, buy Uncle Ben’s Brown Rice – save money on beef. LOVE IT. The Pepperidge Farm deal was my favorite – if you are going to buy produce then buy the bread and use the coupon to save $1.50 off produce!

What deals are you liking this week? Did you find any steals that I missed?

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

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 2/18/11

Liza — Fri, 18 Feb 2011 17:22:54 +0000

So, I’m loving Publix Italian Days! What about you guys? I know so many of you asked me to go shopping yesterday because you wanted to see my Photo Show and Tell yesterday and while I didn’t shop yesterday, I did shop first thing this morning. I started off my shopping trip asking customer service how they would accept the Publix Italian Days coupons. I highly recommend you do the same thing. DO NOT go by my shopping trip and coupon usage since every Publix has a different policy. I actually think my store is too lenient with the coupons and I told my manager that. But, I also told him I would take advantage of the leniency. I did have a great trip today. As you can see, I really took advantage of the Progresso Canned Beans! They are a staple in my house. I make black bean soup, white chicken chili, regular chili, plain black beans, black beans on salads, and many more recipes with beans. I may even type up an awesome recipe for black bean soup for you all – it goes perfectly with this week’s sales. I bought a lot of Green Giant veggies and most of them are for my favorite 18 month old friend. She likes corn and green beans so she is getting most of my canned veggies. I will keep a few cans of corn to use in Shepard’s Pie. YUM. I also took advantage of the awesome Sargento Cheese deal! I wasn’t able to score the cheese for free since my inserts didn’t have the $1.00/2 manufacturer coupon, but I was able to score them for $0.25 each which is perfectly fine by me! Oh – and the last deal I have to point out is the California Sun Dried Tomatoes and Pesto. It is hard to tell in the picture but I bought four jars of them. They are pricey and there are no coupons for them, but they are on sale BOGO which they never are. So, if that is something you would use, even without a coupon I am telling you it is okay to buy a few jars of them.

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

Okay so today’s grocery shopping was a HUGE success because of an email I received from JB. JB emailed me to let me know that there are $1.00/1 Emerald Nuts coupons that would go with this week’s sale (my matchups showed $1.50/2). So, I was able to score great deals on the Emerald Nuts which made me really happy! And, my favorite purchase was the Steamfresh and Bird’s Eye vegetables. We eat a lot of vegetables in this house and one of the ways I try to save money on produce is to buy frozen veggies (hence my purchasing 9 bags today ;)). So, for all of you out there that eat healthy and email me telling me there are never good deals on healthy foods, this is perhaps a good deal for you! If you purchase the Steamfresh or Bird’s Eye veggies without (key word is without) sauce then you are buying frozen veggies with only one ingredient – the veggies! There are no preservatives, no fattening sauces, nothing besides veggies (check out the list of ingredients and you will see this).

And – for all of you who read last week’s Photo Show and Tell, I did end up getting a phone call from my store’s head manager and he and I had an awesome conversation. Publix works really hard to provide excellent customer service and I saw this as I spent a good 20 minutes talking to him. It seems he and I are on the same page, so I was extremely pleased. And, supposedly Publix is in the works to put together some sort of written coupon policy which in my opinion would be awesome. If all of the stores could be on the same page and have the same policies there would be so much less confusion over the “gray” couponing areas. And, as you all have probably realized, Publix is starting to tighten their couponing policies – not because they want to be strict but because of the people that abuse the policies. I have heard some horrible examples of people photocopying coupons, using fake coupons, returning items they paid next to nothing on to get the cash, etc etc. It is the “bad seeds” out there that ruin it for all of us. SO – remember that Publix has awesome sales. They give us awesome store coupons. There is no reason that we should take advantage of them. And – as a side note, if any of you have any questions as to what is allowed versus what is fraudulent, please do not hesitate to email me at addictedtosaving at hotmail dot com.

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

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 2/4/11

Liza — Fri, 04 Feb 2011 22:47:15 +0000

So this has been a busy week for me! Getting out of the house today and doing my weekly Publix shopping trip was a nice break from working on the website. I did actually have a coupon issue today at my Publix. To the point where I talked to the manager who said that while they would put the coupons through, they shouldn’t… The crazy thing is that I have done this type of transaction multiple times. When I was leaving Publix today I talked to one of the customer service staff that I always talk to and she said it was a “gray area” of couponing.. Of course I know all about gray areas – especially since Publix doesn’t have a written coupon policy.. All of you email me about “gray” areas of Publix policies on a daily, sometimes hourly basis. But, I always want to err on the side of caution. I don’t want to break rules or even remotely get close to breaking the rules. So I am not going to include the specific coupons (yes there were two gray area issues) in question in this scenarios below. I have put a call into corporate because I want to see what they say about it. Corporate has already called me back and I am now waiting to hear from the District Manager. I know that other reputable websites (emphasis on reputable) say that this specific type of transaction is acceptable. So, either my store is “stricter” than others or my store is misinformed. Either way, I am starting to reevaluate how I run Addicted to Saving. Because here is the thing, my Publix allows certain things that other Publix locations do not allow. And vice versa. And, I don’t want any of you to think that because I am able to do certain things at my Publix it should be allowed everywhere…. SO – all this to say – going forward, I will continue to post my Photo Show and Tell and tell you what I spent and saved and what coupons I used. But, for the matchups, I am going to be a bit less specific for the “gray area” deals. I don’t want you to confuse a specific deal with being 100% acceptable when in actuality it is only acceptable at certain stores with certain managers.. Does that make sense? Did I lose all of you?

Back to my deals though.. I was so excited to score Athenos Greek Yogurt for $0.20 each and Polly-O Mozzarella for $0.69. AND – I did awesome on the U by Kotex and Kleenex! The best part is I purchased $35.00 worth of Kimberly-Clark or Mead Johnson products per the Start Your Year Out with Big Savings booklet so I will get a $10.00 Publix Gift Card in the mail! (After I send in the Publix Gift Card rebate form).

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

1) My Publix allows us to use more than one of the samePublix store coupon and/or competitor coupon. Not all Publix locations allow this. You should ask customer service if they allow this before loading up your cart.
2) Not all Publix locations allow overage. If your Publix does not allow overage, they will usually adjust the value of the coupon down so that you receive the item for free.

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 1/21/11

I had a crazy busy day today. There are lots of fun things in store for Addicted to Saving and I can’t wait to fill you in on the new changes and fun surprises I have in store for you. But in the meantime, I will leave you in suspense and tell you that today was crazy. That said, I was able to make a quick trip into Publix and take advantage of a few of their sales. Did any of you take advantage of the Amy’s Fresh Delivery Groupon deal I posted about last week? I bought it and this Wednesday had fresh produce delivered to my doorstep. Would love to hear your thoughts if you ordered this deal too. Anyways, with all of the produce and all of my frozen meat stockpiled away I bought a few deals and had a productive shopping trip today. I also stopped on my way home from Publix and picked up a Toffee-Mocha at Starbucks using a gift card I received from Swag Bucks which despite having 1,500 calories was heavenly. I did forget to buy eggs which I am totally out of. Guess that means I will have to go back tomorrow. Also – random side note – I have had a really hard time finding any coupon booklets lately. Have you all had this same problem?

What deals are you taking advantage of this week? What are your favorite stockpile items in this week’s sale? I would love to hear how much you are spending and saving! Please leave a comment on this post filling me in on your deals as well as how much you spent and saved!

My cat is going to be SO happy with me. The one type of cat food she eats (the ONLY type of cat food she eats) is Purina Indoor Cat Food. So, I was very excited about the bags of cat food being on sale BOGO! I was also excited that I saved the $1.50/1 Smucker’s Jelly Coupons I posted about back on September 15th HERE. I saved the coupon hoping there would be a good sale and my persistance paid off. With my four $1.50/1 Smuckers coupons I was able to score Smuckers Jam for $0.09 each. Marvelous. The only major grocery item I needed today was cat food and Band-Aids. Everything else I bought because they were excellent deals. Oh – and to prove that I do in fact purchase produce, I took a picture of my grocery trip to Winn Dixie this morning. With a $25.00 gift card I received over the fall from transferring a ______, I was able to score all of the produce below FREE. Although – I should admit that I left my bag of grapes at Winn Dixie. So, yes, I will be going back there to pick up the forgotten bag UGH.

I think I can safely say that I had my last Publix shopping trip for the year 2010. And, to commemorate this occasion, I brought A TON of coupons that I had that were expiring. If you have any FREEBIE coupons in your stash, check the expiration dates because I had a large pile expiring on 12/31. I had a great shopping trip though. I did nothing other than use my expiring coupons and stock up on Fridays appetizers. We will be away from the house for a while so I didn’t need any veggies. Also – a HUGE thanks to Katrina for posting the awesome FREE Clorox wipes deal. Those are the kind of deals that literally make my day.

I had a marvelous time at Publix today. My grocery cart was literally overflowing – so much so that I had groceries on top of my purse which is something I never do. The best thing about all of the groceries is that I am giving a ton of them away so that makes me feel even more productive! I shopped at the Publix near me that accepts Target coupons so that I could maximize all of the Target coupons I have stashed away. I did spend a bit more out of pocket than I probably would have desired but I did get fresh veggies and a ton of Birds Eye frozen veggies. We eat a lot of veggies in this house and if we eat frozen veggies, my favorite are Birds Eye Steamfresh veggies (with NO sauce). Pop the bag in the microwave and voila – a healthy side dish. I “splurged” on Oscar Mayer Bacon. I had a manufacturer and a Target coupon burning a hole in my pocket so I couldn’t resist. Besides, that I stocked up on crackers, oatmeal, peanuts, Ore-Ida Hash Browns and I even got six bottles of soda which we barely drink – yes the soda and Hash Browns will definitely be shared!

It has been so long since I’ve been shopping! Today while shoping I realized that I haven’t been in Publix since before Thanksgiving and for the first time since I started this website I didn’t do a Photo Show and Tell! I forced myself to go to Publix today because I needed to get Tomato Puree for my pasta sauce that I plan on making this week. Besides that, I was able to score some good deals on items that I didn’t necessarily need but I couldn’t pass up. And, I’m excited about the Scotch Brite Dobie Scrubbers I snagged for $0.29 each! What deals are you taking advantage of this week?

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 11/5/10

Liza — Fri, 05 Nov 2010 22:23:17 +0000

Happy November! For my first shopping trip of the month I had a hugely successful day. I made two Publix shopping trips today. I went to my favorite Publix which is 2 minutes from my house and then I went to a Publix a little farther from my house because I had six $1.00/1 Target Produce coupons that expired tomorrow and the farther Publix accepts Target coupons. I got a ton of freebies and during my second Publix trip I actually had to buy a small package of sandwich crackers (they were $0.34) in order for the cashier to be able to use all of the coupons I gave her! My favorite deal that I took advantage of was the FREE Rubbermaid containers I was able to stock up on!! I am planning on making homemade chili and and these containers will be perfect to replace the older containers I have used day in and day out for storing leftovers. The thing I LOVE about couponing is that I never know what I am going to get free. I’m used to getting great deals on pasta, cookie mix, etc etc but freebies like Rubbermaid containers really make my day!

I am going to combine both transaction into one so that you can see everything easily but on my first trip I spend $2.36 and saved $68.66 and on my second trip I spend $0.14 – yes fourteen cents – and saved $47.66.

Photo Show and Tell – Publix 10/29/10

Liza — Fri, 29 Oct 2010 20:02:46 +0000

There are some great deals at Publix this week. Free pasta, free Cascadian Farm cerial, FREE Muir Glen sauce, and some other cheap deals. I really wanted to purchase some produce this week which I ended up accomplishing. I think I’m going to try using the Muir Glen sauce I have stockpiled along with the cans I bought today to use in my family’s red sauce recipe… So, homemade meatballs (using frozen ground turkey I have stockpiled) and red sauce may be in the menu next week. I wasn’t planning on buying Quaker True delights granola bars (they are a favorite in our house) but when I saw that there was $1.00/1 peelies on them, I couldn’t pass them up. So, be on the lookout for the peelies! I also bought more Yakisoba noodles because they are $0.10 each and I plan to donate all of them and more to the Warren Backpack Program on November 20th. The Warren Backpack Program gives homeless children easy to fix food so that they have food to eat when they are not at school. Go HERE for more information on the Addicted to Giving Back program as well as drop off location and time if you would like to help. I did spend maybe a bit more money than planned, but I bought a lot so I’m pleased.

Can you believe it’s time for another Photo Show and Tell? These weeks are flying by and I feel like I was just typing up last week’s Photo Show and Tell. Crazy. I don’t know about you, but I’m not overly thrilled with this week’s Publix ad. Don’t get me wrong, there are a ton of great sales, but for me and my household’s needs, there really wasn’t much that I wanted to buy and stockpile away. I wish I had better coupons for the Dial deal because we are in desperate need of bar soap.. and I wish I had better Steamfresh Veggies coupons because we love Steamfresh veggies (the ones w/o sauce). But, my coupons were only average so I didn’t go crazy. I was excited about the asparagus sale and even though I had no coupons I was also excited about the Aunt Jemima sale.. Oh – I also received my $5.00 Publix Rebate Gift Card from the Kellogg’s Cinnabon Deal I posted about in HERE August.. so, at least I had $5.00 off of my total purchase today I ended up spending more money than I would have liked considering what I bought, but I’m fine with it.

What are you stocking up on this week? What deals are you taking advantage of?

I had so much fun at Publix today. I actually threw together all of my coupons this morning and for the first time in a long time, I didn’t go into Publix knowing ahead of time what I was going to spend. (Usually, I have the math done ahead of time for my entire grocery list.) It was a bit of a gamble, but I knew that I had a lot of great deals in my cart so I was able to stock up on two bags of apples, plums, bananas, acorn squash and asparagus. Despite all of the produce I bought, I still ended up spending $0.09 before tax. With tax, I spent $4.15! I was thrilled and I have to say that my cashier was the best. She is one of my store’s customer service managers and she never flinches when she sees me coming with a huge wad of coupons.

Also – stay tuned for next week’s Photo Show and Tell which will be posted sometime Friday, October 8th.. I will be a bit under the weather next week so you will have a guest blogger for my Photo Show and Tell. I’m really excited about it and I can’t wait to see how they do on their shopping trip!

I did a quick Publix run this afternoon. I’m excited to try the Gluten Free Crunchmaster Multi-Grain Crackers. I’m hoping they taste as good as they look on the bag I did spend more money out of pocket today than I have in a long time. I can’t really figure out why because looking at the picture, I don’t see a ton of groceries. I saved 84% which is the lowest percentage I have saved in a long time. BUT, I did get Q-tips for my stockpile and crackers which I am entirely out of. And I got the sacred Half & Half for my husband. (He starts to get the nervous sweats when he gets low on his coffee creamer ;)) How did you all do this week? Did you find any great deals worth mentioning? Please leave a comment on this post with all of your brag worthy or frustrations! We all love to read them!

I know I know I know. You are looking at this picture and not only are you thinking and wondering why I bought so many Toaster Strudels, but you are also wondering where all the veggies are and where the meat is!! (Do I know all of you or what? You know that I love Publix. Today, however, there really wasn’t much I wanted to buy. I wanted to get the Trop50 Orange Juice and I wanted to get the Barilla pasta sauce. But seriously, I would have been okay buying just those two things. HOWEVER, everything got tricky when I had a $10.00 off of $50.00 Publix store coupon that a reader sent me last week. I had to spend $50.00 (before coupons) in order to use this coupon. So, since I am planning on buying chicken at Sweetbay this week (go HERE for more info) and since I still have veggies from last week’s Publix sale, I decided to splurge on Toaster Strudel. My hubby is a huge fan of it. That said, neither he nor I will go through all 12 boxes. So, never fear, I have already given away 6 boxes

I had another great Publix trip today! I focused on a few sales items that I wanted to stock up on and I focused on the awesome $0.99/lb produce deals. I am wondering if I can cut up and freeze zucchini and yellow squash? Has anyone tried that before?

I had a great trip although I chose the wrong cashier. You all know what I mean… when I got in her line I knew right away I should have chosen a different line… But, I put on a smile and I organized my stack of my coupons to match the order of the items on the conveyor belt. My first problem was when she wouldn’t give me overage on the Combat even though I’ve received overage on that deal at her Publix numerous times before. No big deal to me. I didn’t want to raise a fuss and ruin it for any couponers who happened in her line after me. However, she told me she would use either the store Combat coupon or the manufacturer coupon. Not both. I reminded her that she had to adjust the value of the coupon down so that I received the item free without overage. She reluctantly did this. It was funny to me that she knew how to do this which showed me she just didn’t want to give me the item free and she was hoping I would let it slide. Then, towards the end of the transaction, her register wouldn’t allow her to accept any more coupons because I gave her so many store and manufacturer coupons. Not a bid deal right? Well, she tells me she can’t accept any more of my coupons and literally is about to hand my pile of unused coupons back. To which I tell her, no, all you need to do is have a manager override the system. Again, she reluctantly did this and called the manager over and the manager (who was awesome btw) punched in her code.

This was a reminder, though, of how important it is to know how couponing works. If I was a coupon newbie, I would have lost money on the Combat deal and I would have lost money on the stack of coupons the cashier tried to give me back! To my newbies reading this, always know that it is okay to question a cashier’s actions.

You should ask customer service if they allow this before loading up your cart. 2) You should find out what stores your Publix considers competition so that you know what competitor coupons you can use. Some but not all Publix locations accept Target, Winn Dixie, Whole Foods, Sweet Bay, Walgreens, and many more. 3) Not all Publix locations allow overage.

Today’s Publix trip was fantastic. I went to a Publix located a bit farther from my “regular” Publix because I wanted to go to one that accepts Target coupons. Today was not my full weekly shopping trip. In fact, I had a full blown shopping trip this past Tuesday and I didn’t think about taking a picture of everything until now for proof. This past Tuesday I spent $29.95 and saved $120.46 and stocked up on tons of meat (4 packages of Ground Sirloin, 2 packages of Pork Country Ribs, 1 package of Sirloin Tip Steak) and produce and lots of pasta, cereal and other stuff. So, since I bought so much on Tuesday, today I really bought only the highlights that stuck out at me from the ad. I was able to score a TON of free stuff today. Originally I was planning on paying around $0.50 (after using Target store coupons) or so for each Planters Peanuts but this awesome Publix worker saw me taking the Planters off the shelf and showed me an awesome tearpad with $1.00/2 Planters Products. Score! With the tearpad, I was able to get all the nuts for free AND I received $0.87 overage! I LOVE Publix! Also – random side note – my husband very rarely eats Chef Boyardee (I can’t stomach it) and neither of us eat Kids Cuisine. BUT, I have these awesome boys in my neighborhood that I love to shower with free food and they will be receiving the Kids Cuisine and most of the Chef Boyardee

Hello Ronzoni pasta and Ragu sauce! As you know, Publix has an awesome deal right now on Ragu and Ronzoni which is why I stocked up bigtime! I had a great day. Didn’t get any produce, but I have been getting produce at Winn Dixie and I stocked up on organic veggies and ground beef at Messineo’s Market in St Petersburg using the Groupon I purchased for me & my husband. I did pretty good today though and had a great time shopping as usual.

I had a great day at Publix today! I was able to get some veggies and utilize some great coupons I had burning a hole in my pocket. I must say that looking at my picture I’ve posted, I realize that I only bought one item that was on sale B1G1! As you probably know, that abnormal for me! But, this week’s sale is only so-so and I ended up finding other deals utilizing the coupons I had. When all is said and done, I ended up saving 99.2% which I will take any day!

I had a fun but yet interesting trip at Publix yesterday. I am not finding this week’s Publix sale to be extraordinary but I had some coupons that scored me good deals and I was able to buy some veggies which I am in desperate need of. (I also need squash and broccoli but I wasn’t thrilled with Publix’s prices this week.) It was fun in the sense that I scored free Dove deororant, free Carefree pantiliners, free Olay Regenerist and free Hidden Valley dressing. I also bought a ton of Ziploc Bags but they are not pictured. My trip, however, was an interesting trip because first of all, I read a coupon incorrectly. This very seldom happens, but it does happen. So, my encouragement to you is to read each coupon and make sure you are buying the correct item with the coupon! The second reason this trip was interesting is because I had THE WORST experience with my cashier. WORST. He missed scanning $5.00 in Publix store coupons and $3.50 in manufacturer coupons – this is a total of EIGHT COUPONS he missed. I brought my receipt back to customer service and I am STILL waiting on Publix to fix the issue! The pricing below is based on the assumption that Publix fixes their errors. I spent $14.17 (including tax) on $169.87 worth of groceries!

**Today’s shopping trip coincides with this week’s Publix 3/18/10 – 3/24/10 sale cycle. To see this week’s Publix sales and coupon matchups, go Here! Today, my great friend Kara and I hit up Target and Publix together. We had a blast. There are some awesome sales right now and let me tell you, we both took FULL advantage of them. If you are new to couponing, there are some great deals at Publix this week that you should be able to participate in as well! I spent a total of $2.68 (including tax – it was $0.93 before tax) on everything in the picture above. One of the luxuries of stockpiling is that you can shop the sales each week knowing that you don’t really NEED anything. I have a full pantry so every week I focus on all of the really good deals to add to my stockpile. If you are new to my website, I should tell you I post weekly Photo Show and Tells to inspire you and also show you exactly what you need to do to save money.

**Today’s shopping trip coincides with this week’s Winn Dixie and Publix’s Sales Cycle. To see this week’s Publix sales and coupon matchups, go Here! Today was a great day! I had a marvelous trip at Winn Dixie to stock up on the free toothbrushes I mentioned HERE. I am really excited because I am stocking up on toiletries to donate to a homeless shelter for pregnant women and these high quality toothbrushes will be an awesome addition to my donations. Publix was okay.. I didn’t need anything. I literally have such a great stockpile that the only thing I needed was veggies which I will get next week. Have a stockpile lets me be very selective as to what I buy each week. I did get freebies at Publix which always makes me happy. And, we just ran out of black pepper so to be able to get FREE McCormick Pepper Grinders really made my day. I had a $5 off of $30 and a $10 off of $50 Winn Dixie coupon to use, but I decided to hold on to them and save them for next week. I spent $7.86 on everything in this picture and saved $149.25!!

Don’t forget to sign up for Addicted to Saving’s Universal Studios Orlando Ticket Giveaway!!!

The photo above coincides with this week’s Publix Sale so you can get these items through Tuesday, 3/9 or Wednesday 3/10 (depending on when your Publix sale ends)!! To see this week’s Publix Weekly Deals and coupon matchups, go Here! I had a great day at Publix today. I spent FAR less than I expected to. I used the last of my Yakisoba coupons (hubby LOVES them) and I took advantage of a lot of the AWESOME Publix store coupon and manufacturer matchups available right now. You can do the same deals I did. I will post each and every coupon I used so that hopefully you can replicate the same savings as me! All in all, I spent $2.19 on the $86.95 worth of groceries above.
