I saved almost 87% at Publix alone!
You are amazing. And I bet it just gets easier to figure out the more you do it.
It really does! I am down to about 30 minutes on the weekends and then an hour or two planning my Thursday trips. I post everything on this blog that I use and will always link back to where I found the info so you can visit their sites and get more helpful info.
Thanks for the complement! I couldn't do it without the help of everyone else's blogs!!
I have a question , my name is Deb you meet me today at the publix, I am so excitted thank youfor sharing this with me , How do you get the winn Dixie Coupons, and the albertson coupons? Thankyou so much you are deffently going to make my next shopping experience, very excitting ! your friend Deb from Publix :}
Hey Deb,
The Winn-Dixie coupons print out when you are ringing up your order. I have been trying different scenarios to figure it out. So far I have noticed that if I go once a week I can spend as little as .50 on one cucumber per order and use my W-D card and the $10 off $50 prints up. I buy another cucumber (or whatever they have a REALLY good deal on) and use my husband's W-D card and get another $10/$50.
I am considering filling out a new form for a new card so that I can get 3 each week. I ALWAYS buy more than $100 worth of groceries and since you can use 1 of those coupons PER every $50, the more the better... Since I don't ever have 3 of them I use the Albertson's $5/$50's
My dear friend AmyinOrlando.blogspot.com has taught me to "recycle." At 3 different times I have ventured to the apartment complex near my house after dark to snag up some of those Wednesday mailers that have the Albertson's ads in them. When the ad would have a $5/$50 I would go collect 20-30 of them. Luckily the trash bins generally only have junk mail in them and I have only encountered a banana peal once.
THAT Publix is lovingly named our CHEAP PUBLIX. They are also super coupon friendly. I was worried b/c when I started going with a huge stack of coupons I was scared they would follow me around and then criticize each coupon. They don't. And when I have a question I am quick to clarify with Customer Service before bothering to throw it in the cart. Publix accepts competitor coupons (even the B1G2 Albertson's meat coupons!!!) and expired $/$ coupons and all expired PUBLIX only coupons.. that I know of so far (you could ask at CS.)
When the cashiers and managers get to know you and know you aren't trying to pull any coupon scams then they also get excited to see how much you saved. In fact, I believe RuthAnn follows Amy's blog.
Good Luck! I hope to see you here!
