Publix Purchases 7/21/11

Not a huge shopping trip this week. But I did get some fun things! lol

I spent $17.76 and I saved $30.39

My purchases this week were:
  • 2 boxes 100 calorie packs $1.10 each
  • 2 packs of Yoplait Trix yogurt 90 cents each! (Tye was excited for these because there were "Cars" on the yogurt packages.)
  • 4 boxes Quaker Granola Bars 98 cents each!!
  • 2 packs of Paper Mate Pens I MADE 50 cents each!!!!!!!!
  • 2 bottles of Publix syrup $1.99 each
  • 2 boxes Honey Maid Graham crackers $1.55 each
  • 2 boxes Quaker Oatmeal Dinosaur Eggs $1.75 each (I have been waiting for this deal forever, now it isn't the best deal, BUT Dinosaur Eggs are Kevin's absolute favorite oatmeal. He almost cried when I told him that they must not make it any more because they didn't carry it at Walmart. When I started shopping at Publix I saw they carried it and have been waiting for a deal on them so I could get it. So I was glad it happened now and I am going to give him his very own box for his birthday--among other things of course! lol The other box he and Tye can share as Tye shares his love for Dinosaur Eggs! lol)
So there you have it. Not the best of deals, but at least it is some deals. And I always love the deals when I make money! :-) And yes it is LEGAL (even though the cashier tried to give me a hard time with two of my coupons saying I couldn't use the same coupon in the same transaction, I told him it wasn't that you couldn't use it in the same transaction, you had to just buy multiples of the same product, which I did...I bought 2 of the pens, therefore I could use 2 coupons--one for each pack I bought! UGH!).

Here is what I bought today:
  • 4 bags of hashbrowns (this was a rain check I redeemed) $1.99 each

  • 2 containers of Emerald Peanuts $1.04 each
  • 1 tube of Abreva $10.99!!!! Okay this is like the best deal ever! Even though it is still way high, the regular price at Publix is $16.99, but just two weeks ago when I was on vacation in KS, a girl there bought it for $23.99!!! Yeah I got it for less than half that price!
  • 10 Welch's Fruit and Yogurt snacks 87 cents each!!
  • 2 Ocean Spray Juices $1.23 each
  • $10 Publix Gift Card FREE!!!!
I have not used any of my gift cards yet because I am saving them to use on some of the stuff we get catered from Publix for our Christmas Party (Cuban sandwiches anyone?! hehehe) I love that my food storage is getting full and I am spending less or the same amount as I was before. It will be nice when my stockpile is up so that I can really just shop for the rock bottom prices. I have decided to keep track of the lowest price I get things at so that I can compare and see if it really is a good deal or just an okay deal and if I have a stockpile then I can hold out a bit longer. :-)

CVS Purchase 07/07/11

Spent $21.91 and saved $42.34 plus $2 ECB!!!


What I bought today:
  • 3 Gold Emblem Spring Water 24 pks $2.44 each
  • 4 Cascade Powder $1.99 each
  • 2 Milk $3.39 each
  • 2 Head and Shoulders $2.24 each PLUS $1 in ECB each
  • 2 Always pads $2.49 each
Pretty good prices but not rock bottom prices. Some of these were things that were necessary right away and the water was a really good deal considering we are entering hurricane season and need to stock up. :-) I had $6 in ECB that I used towards my purchase too.
