My Shopping trips at Publix...

[mrsjmward]

I am new to using coupons at Publix however, I think I am getting really good at this...
In the last few months I have gotten diaper big boxes for 12.50 each, free products like wipes baby food etc... and now using target coupons plus mf coupons...
I really love using wd coupons at publix because I dont like making alot of stops with children lol..

Anyways here is my deals so far in the last weeks

new york strips 3~ 7.87 -5 coupon from wd mailer
bogo sour cream 1.03 - 1.00 dairy publix mailer
and some baby food that was cheap


this past week
got the speical k cereal it was really good this am... even the kids loved it and some other bogo deals with lots of coupons

but most deal was today

ok 16 boxes of keg's cereal, 5 bags of apples, gallon of milk,3 bags of marshallows, 6 jars of baby food, sprite 2 liter, 4 jj juice..

grand total was 20.84, should have been 19.84 but I was not going to freak cus the dude was really nice and over ridden the amount of coupons I had.. so 1 buck was ok. but here is the deals I got

16 boxes of cereal had 75 cents off coupons on the boxes plus 1 off from target. used 1 set per box. made them .29.5 cents each box

Apples yes 1 off from target made them .99 cents for 3 lbs on all already for 1.99
jucie was 1.32 used 1 off x 2
milk was on sale 3.09

3x marshmallows were free from a coupon on the cocoo cereal...

baby food was 1 off 3 jars so 6 cents a jar....

All I can say is my kids will be eating alot of apples and cereal this week!!!

isn't it so much fun, and such a great way to contribute to the family finances! Don't forget that you can use Wags $5/25 Q too! makes it an even better deal.

great job! - I am also new to Publix and if I had not read this forum I would have not known about the 5/25 Wags Q that they gladly accepted. And I thought I would never get free cereal but finally I got some - only got 4 boxes because I thought there must be some catch - like they would accept so many Target Q's, etc. - but not one problem - when I first started reading this forum about how many boxes of cereal fellow couponers had stockpiled - I was amazed - now I can say I have at least 20 boxes of cereal in the pantry! Going back tomorrow to get more cereal to donate!!

[mrsjmward]

in the last few days I have spend way over 50 bucks total.... now I have to find somewhere to put them so noone thinks we are crazy folks for having over 20 boxes of cereal....

oh found those books too, had lots of them if anyone needs some....

and going to another publix in the am to get more cereal for the local churchs!!!!'
I think its great to give back to those who have helped you!!!

I am confused...at one Publix near my house, they say no more BJ coupons, but the other one no problem. Then both of them say no Target, CVS or Walgreens. You guys must have great Publix where you are at. Believe me, they are nice and I have a lot of coupons every week, but I sure would like to use the Target and Walgreens....any suggestions....Thanks

Hey Proudnana -

From what I can see, what Publix will take seems to be a YMMV type deal. Mine has NEVER taken BJ's, and now won't take Whole Foods (or, as my bro calls them, "Whole Paycheck"). They will, however, take just about anything else... Target, Walgreens, CVS, Family Dollar, Dollar General, Food Lion, and Winn Dixie... probably because of the proximity of these places. We don't even have an Albertson's left in our county any more, so they aren't accepting that either. Mine told me that because BJ's was a warehouse club, they weren't considered to be a "competitor". Because my bro has a Whole Foods within several blocks of his Publix, theirs WILL take a Whole Foods Q.

I dont know what to tell you, But I know yesterday when I went back due to baby was fussing had to leave... I was not able to use some of my coupons and I got back 5.50 on a 17 dollar order... the front manage( a friend of mine) said you know you should have been using Walgreens too due the fact of the 5 bucks off of 25, I was like what....... I didnt get the sunday paper this past sun due to the fact I was lazy.... never again will that happened.... anyways going back to walgreens and getting my coupons to go get thanksgiving dinner .... I have to get peanut oil for a fried turkey...... oh so good.....

got to get some cheap turkeys this year feeding alot of folks!! any news on cheap turkeys???? of course in the south lol
