I spent $90.26 & received a $10 Publix gift card, Saved $105.85--54% Savings!!

Wondering how I get my Percentage Saved? I use the following equation:

Total Savings / (Total Spent + Total Savings) = % Saved




*Things to remember when shopping PUBLIX (AL):
  • When and item is Bogo, you DO NOT have to buy 2, they are 1/2 price.
  • You CAN use one MQ plus one STORE coupon per item. 
  • Publix takes competitor Q's (find out which stores YOUR Publix considers  Competitors)
  • Publix doubles MQ, but not STORE q's, up to and including $.50!

  • Be sure to check Southern Savers & I Heart Publix
    for complete Ad matchup's!

    We will be donating some pop corn and the baby food this week! I hope that you are saving more on your grocery bill this year. Have you set a goal? I am tracking my spending again this year. I hope to donate more this year, too!! I think it's important to use the tools the Lord gives us to spread the Love of Christ and what better way to do that than sharing what we have with others. I feel that the Lord has blessed me with couponing and I want to use it to be a blessing to others. Thank you all for reading and I hope that you are learning from my blog posts. That's the reason I post them, so you can see how it works! Please let me know if you have any questions! God Bless you and may you have a blessed week!! =)
