We love Publix!





Here is a summary of my very exciting Publix trip.

Hunts tomatoes (4) 2.54 Used 1 x 0.45/3 (doubled to 90 cents off)
Publix choc crème cookies (1) 0.01 Penny item for this week
-5.00 1 x $5 off 30 purchase publix coupon (was in last weeks paper)
-10.00 2 x $5 off wyb 20 participating Italian items (hunts, pillsbury, green giant)

Total from above ends up being $10.50 before tax, but my receipt says $9.61 before tax. It's not worth the time to figure out where my error is. I did get "lucky" on this trip and got an extra $4 off. There is a publix coupon for $1 off 4 hunts tomatoes that I didn't have and asked if the cashier had the code (publix coupons are a 4 digit code they enter). She didn't have it but asked the bagger to ask customer service for it. They ended up giving her the code for the $5 off 2o items (which i had already used). But she rang it up too fast because it was the last coupon. So I went to customer service and the lady said to not worry about it and that they weren't going to let me pay back the $4 difference.

I use http://www.iheartpublix/ and http://www.southernsavers.com/ to find these deals. Now I am off to find some deals on gas! :)
