Publix Penny Item Day - 7/27/2011


I went to Publix on Wednesday, purely with the intention of getting the penny item, which I thought was going to be Publix Spring Water. To my surprise, my store had changed it to 8 O'Clock Coffee!!! Do you know how much better of a deal that is?!?! We don't even buy much bottled water at our house because we have filtered water in the fridge. But $.01 coffee, that is a definite savings. So much so, that when I got home, I went and got the penny item coupon from the neighbor's paper, and I went back to Publix for more!! Anyway, I will include both transactions here:

Transaction 1:
  • 6 Think Thin Bars - 3/$5.00 - Used (5) $.50 off Whole Foods Coupons (I forgot 1) plus (6) $.50 off manufacturer's coupons that doubled to $1.00, so these cost me $1.50 total.
  • Gerber Biscuits - $2.19 - Used $1/2 Gerber manufacturer coupon + $1 off Gerber Publix coupon
  • Gerber Puffs - $2.00 - Used above $1/2 man coupon + $1 off Gerber Publix coupon
  • 2 Honey Nut Cheerios - BOGO $4.99 - Used $1.00 off coupon + $.75 off coupon
  • 2 Original Cheerios - BOGO $4.99 - Used (2) $1.00 off coupons
  • Lipton Onion Mix - $1.47 - Used $1.00 off coupon
  • Publix Onion Mix - Free with promotion - buy Lipton onion mix, get Publix brand free (Regular $1.15)
  • 8 O'Clock Coffee - $.01 Penny item (Regular $6.99)
  • $5 off $30 Winn-Dixie Coupon
  • Total OOP with Tax = $5.57, Total Saved = $39.18, for a savings of 88%
  • I was so excited about this transaction. My daughter loves Cheerios and the coffee was a steal! I was definitely on a coupon high!

Transaction 2:
  • 2 Organic Valley
  • Milks - $3.99 each
  • Publix Shredded Cheese - on sale for $2.50 (Regular $3.19)
  • 8 O'Clock Coffee - $.01 Penny Item
  • Pampers Cruisers -$19.99 - Used $1.50 man coupon + $5.00 store coupon (From stocking spree booklet)
  • $5 off $30 Transaction coupon
  • Total OOP with Tax = $21.02, Total Saved = $19.17, for a savings of 48%

Total of both transactions = $26.59. My Mom had actually given me $20 to buy some diapers, so only $6.59 came out of my grocery budget! Yeah!!
