What did you get at Publix this week?

Thought I would peek your interest if you have not been to a class! Here is a picture of my shopping trip from this week to Publix. All of this should have been $226.00... I paid $4.80....

In this past sundays paper. There was a coupon for target buy 12 VIVA 12pk get a $5 target giftcard. &in the publix add 1.00 off VIVA 4pk or larger. Can those be used together?

I would think you could only use one or the other. I do know that if you use the $5 gift card one at publix, they will honor that and give you a gc or money off the transaction. The best I could say is ask your store if they will accept both, and let us know!

I am still learning and can't thank you enough!  I have been to your classes and have to say they are the best and most informative.  I have been to others and was totally lost and confused....you shed the light for me.

 

I went to Publix today and spent grand total of $63.27 at Publix.....but I saved...........$101.39.....

 

I also went to CVS and spent a grand total of $19.71 at CVS today ....I saved......$68.77!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

My husband was soooo excited that he is rooting me on to continue couponing.

Tammy and Melissa,

 

Thank you both.  I was excited, scared, frazzled, and on a total shopping high all at the same time.  I know as I grow further into leaning how to coupon and do it wisely, I will be more confident and save even more.  Totally addicted :)

 

Can't wait for your next class in WH....bringing more friends who now want to learn how to coupon too!

PS...I was at Walgreens with my coupon book and a lady approached me and asked if I was a couponer....I told her I was and she said she just went to your class Melissa the night before and was excited to start couponing!  It was a total chance meeting, and we laughed at knowing we both attended your classes and was shopping with coupons in hand :)

How cool! I love it when I run into people who have come to the classes. I feel like I have met so many wonderful people! Many whom I am honored to call friends!

Way to go Carrie-Ann Brady!  I did my 1st trip last week too!  At Publix I spent $43.88 and saved $72.49.  At Walgreens I was able to make $24 in RR for buying Colgate toothpaste and made .55 cents on each one.  So cool!  Then I purchased 7 Similac Formulas and made a $1 on each.  It's so rewarding and motivating at the same time.  Carrie-Ann, I'm also a Winter Haven resident and shop Publix.  Do you mind me asking which Publix you shop at and if they accept Target as a competitor?  I used mine last week but have a friend that said they've never taken hers.  Just wondering.  : )

Hi Jennifer,

You did AWESOME at Walgreens!!!  Haven't found my way there yet, but plan on shopping Walgreens in the future too. 

I shop at the Publix in SE Plaza (on Cypress Gardens Blvd across from Chili's) and the management there is AMAZING!!!  They do accept Target coupons and if you have competitor coupons (like the $5 off $25 from Save-A-Lot or Winn Dixie) they will accept those as well.

Thanks Carrie-Ann!  I shop the Publix across from Lego Land.  I was so relieved to find out they do accept Target coupons!  : )  Have you tried CVS yet?  I want to try there next.

Glad to hear they accept target coupons too!  I live between both of the Publix stores so I wasn't sure if one differed from the other.

I went to CVS this week and it was great! I got a lot of freebies and got $10.00 in ECB's to use which essentially gave me free toilet paper.  I spent just over $19.00 and got over $64.00 worth of items...
