Shopper Strategy

Since my kids are a little too old for trick or treating now I haven’t been buying much candy this year but then I realized I’d better stock up a little while its on sale, you know, for emergencies 😉 My dad has a mean sweet tooth so the eclairs are for him but I’m hoping to swipe a few if he’ll let me. Today at Publix I bought $102.89 worth of groceries for $37.95, or 63% off after coupons. Here are the deals:

This was probably my smallest Publix trip ever but I still grabbed some great deals on lots of staples like pasta sauce, oatmeal, potatoes and bread. It’s my quadruplets birthday today and for some reason they think they get to celebrate all month so they had a special dinner and cake tonight, I’m taking them to lunch on Monday since its a holiday for me and a teacher planning day for them, AND we are going to the fair next week. Between all that and regular activities we won’t be at home a whole lot so I didn’t stock up too much today. This week at Publix I bought $36.53 worth of groceries for $16.92, or 54% off after coupons. Here are the deals:

Last week I had all kinds of server problems so the site was down and I couldn’t do my usual shopping trip post. Happily its back up and running so I can share the great deals I grabbed at Publix this week. While it may look like the kids racked up on this trip really the cakes are for my dad and the Reese’s are for me. Thankfully the kids don’t read the blog so I don’t have to share! Today at Publix I bought $83.94 worth of groceries for $32.84, or 61% off after coupons and the $10 Publix gift card I got for having a flu shot done there. Here are the deals:

I needed to stock up on work snacks for the office so I was really happy to get great deals on these bagels and bottled sodas. Of course my kids love bagels too so I think these are half gone already, but I’m hoarding the rest – sorry kids. Today at Publix I bought $79.16 worth of groceries for $29.54, or 63% off after coupons. Here are the deals:

This week at Publix I picked up a bunch of great deals on staples like cereal, peanut butter, cheese and pasta. I got in trouble with the kids when I came home without any Potato Inspirations, which are also on BOGO this week, so it looks like I may have to make another trip before the sale is over. Today I bought $85.24 worth of groceries for $35.48, or 58% off after coupons including a $5/$40 Winn Dixie coupon from today’s newspaper. Here are the deals:

I’ve been sick since Friday with an ugly summer cold and I just didn’t feel like doing too much shopping today. I did get a few great deals on my quick Publix trip though like Bisquick for two bucks (it almost never goes on sale!) and these much needed Kleenex. Today I bought $50.51 worth of groceries for $23.75, or 53% off after coupons. Here are the deals:

Since Monday is a holiday from both work and school I’m planning an exciting day of yard work and teaching the kids to make barbecue ribs – that sounds like a great reward for trimming hedges and cleaning out gutters right? We’re also going to use the panini maker to make warm pita sandwiches one night this week. Today at Publix I bought $85.97 worth of groceries for $41.14, or 52% off after coupons. Here are the deals:

While it wasn’t a big trip to Publix this week I picked up some great deals on staples like potatoes, cheese and laundry detergent so I’m happy with the results. The kids deserved some treats after working so hard to get back in the school groove so they were pretty thrilled with the Klondike bars. Today I bought $54.51 worth of groceries for $22.45, or 59% off after coupons. Here are the deals:

My five kiddos went back to school this week and they’re just as excited as I am so that’s pretty cool! They’re all pretty happy with their teachers and I’m pretty sure my mom is thrilled that Camp Mamaw is over. While this wasn’t my best savings weeks ever there are several meals in there and a bunch of sodas so I’m happy with the trip. This week at Publix I bought $91.21 worth of groceries for $41.04, or 55% off after coupons. Here are the deals:
