This week I made a last minute trip to Publix to grab the first week of Italian Days deals.  With an hour to spare until the store closed and the ad ended, I still managed to find all the deals in stock!  We went to a different Publix in town that is mostly a college student store, so I looked a bit out of place with my buggy loaded down and multiple children.   The poor cashier was a tad overwhelmed but she got on board as the savings added up.  I love it when they are cheering you on by the end!!

My favorite deal was

Bought:
(3) Kellogg’s Crunchy Nut Cereal, B1G1 at $4.15 ($2.07 each)
(1) Kelloggs Pop Tarts 12 ct. $3.15
(3) Muller’s Greek Yogurt, $1 ea
Used:
(3) -.50/1 Kellogg’s Crunchy Nut cereal, 10.8 oz+ printable
-$1/2 Muller yogurt products (regional), RP 2/17
-$1 off Yogurt wyb (2) Kellogg’s Crunchy Nut cereal printable
-$1/3 Muller Yogurt, 5.3 oz, (Publix Coupon), Yellow Advantage Buy Flyer
-Free Kellogg’s Pop Tarts, 12 ct., WYB (3) Kellogg’s Frosted Flakes, Crunchy Nut or Corn Pops Cereal (Publix Coupon), Yellow Advantage Buy Flyer
Total Due: $3.21 or 45¢ each!

There was another fun deal with cheerios and bananas, plus when I went digging in inserts to cut coupons I found Food Lion coupons that matched with the Hunt’s tomatoes that were B1G1.  I was pretty much giddy the entire time we were shopping!  I love weeks with tons of deals, it makes me feel like me shopping time is even more worthwhile.

Our totals:

Publix:
Total before sales and coupons: $212.28
Total Spent: $97.48
Total Saved: $114.80 or 54%

To top off our trip, the manager was handing every person who left the store a cinnamon broom.  Guess winter is finally over and they wanted them gone.  I really didn’t need it, but it’s always fun to get something else for free!
