I was excited about today’s shopping venture because coffee is on sale B1G1! My husband goes through coffee like it is going out of style. So, I was SO excited to see Eight O’Clock Coffee on sale B1G1 again this week. Beyond the coffee, however, I really didn’t need anything besides the Hungry Jack syrup. Let me tell you about the syrup. You know that we all have non-negotiables. Things that we have to have whether they are on sale or not. For me, it would be Heinz Ketchup or Tropicana Orange Juice. For my husband, it is Hungry Jack syrup. I have a ton of Eggo waffles for him to enjoy (go HERE) and he refuses to eat them without his Hungry Jack syrup. So, I had to buy it… Without a coupon. Considering the fact that I spent a mere $0.36 during last week’s Photo Show and Tell (go HERE) I figured it would be okay to go a bit “crazy” today. So I did – well, I went as “crazy” as I can. 😉 I am also in the midst of joining a produce co-op so I won’t have to buy many veggies at the store any more. When all was said and done I ended up saving 87%. This is a lot less than normal but I’m okay with that. I stocked up on bread to freeze, I have syrup for hubby and I stocked up on applesauce that I will use to bake with and as an occasional snack. So, I’m pleased.
The items I purchased today coincide with this week’s Publix Weekly ad. To see this week’s ad & coupon matchups, go HERE.

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..
