Publix – 3.6.11

For coupon and savings, shopping with kids is NOT advised! :)
I’m not listing everything today. I just don’t feel like it. I did leave with a buggy full again though. My savings weren’t as good as usual, but I had the girls with us this time. They were DETERMINED to get cereal and we needed cereal, but what they wanted wasn’t on sale (of course) and the only coupon was $1/3 so that didn’t save much…lol  So on 3 boxes of cereal it was 12.50 minus my measly $1 coupon. WAY more than I usually spend on cereal now but oh well. I also picked up a few other sale items that I didn’t have coupons for. Gatorade 32 oz was on sale 10/$10 so I got 10 of those since they are a must have with POTS/DYS.  Also ended up buying Ice Cream, but I convinced them to get Ice Cream Sandwiches which were on sale but again, no coupon!

I did get some freebies though. Publix Cocoa Butter Lotion, Publix Rubbing Alcohol, 2 Jars of Karo Syrup, and a bag of Hall’s Cough Drops (which was a money maker!), and a box of Milk-Bone’s for the Dogs. So it wasn’t horrible, but still I don’t like spending more than I save now! 
Anyway, here are my totals for yesterday’s trip.  I WILL do better next time…lol
Total before Sales and Coupons $203.23
Total I paid out of pocket after sales and Coupons $114.96
Coupon Savings (store) $9.96
Coupon Savings (Manuf.) $26.69
Sales Savings $51.08
Total Saved $87.73
Percentage Saved 43.5%
