Couponing at Publix

Hey Yall,
Since it's been a while since I have done a coupon class blog post  I figured I would give yall a run down of my latest trip to Publix. This run is a little bigger that what I would normally do but they had so many good deals that I had coupons for and I could use all the things I got so I went for it. I am going to detail what I bought and what coupons I used so if your a beginner maybe this will help out out some and as always if you have questions and I can help just ask.
So here's my haul!! Before taxes I paid $23.28.

 Now yall know what I say about taxes! I don't count that in my total because you can't coupon tax! I mean those extreme couponers on TV can get out of the store without paying a dime but I can't so in my world you can't coupon tax :)

So now that you have seen all my goodies lets break it down and see how the shopping trip went shall we!!
                                            Edwards Pies BOGO(Buy one Get one) $7.83

 I used (2) $1.00 Manufacturer Coupons and (2) .55 Publix Coupons (Remember Publix lets you stack a Manufacturer Coupon and a Publix Coupon) final price for both pies $4.75

                                     Nestle Tollhouse Frozen Cookie Dough BOGO $2.63

I used (1) .50 Manufacturer Coupon (that doubled to a dollar Publix doubles coupons up to .50 cents) and (1) .50 of 2 Manufacturer Coupon  that doubled to a dollar final price for all 3 pack of cookie dough $ 1.96

                                                 Pam Cooking Spray BOGO $3.19

                                             Campbells Cream of Chicken BOGO 1.33

I used (1) .40 cent off 4 Manufacturer Coupon that doubled to .80 cents and (1) 1.00 off 4 Publix Coupon. Now If I had been paying attention I would have noticed that the Publix Coupon was for the Healthy Harvest Cream of Chicken and that was what I got so that it would match my coupon. What I didn't see was that the Healthy Harvest Cream of Chicken was NOT on the BOGO those suckers were 4 for $7.00. That was a $5.00 mistake on my part. I have been doing this coupon thing over a year and I still screw up so if your still screwing up too go easy on yourself we all do it!!

Publix will take these coupons. You may get a $10.00 Publix gift card or you may get $10.00 off your shopping trip it really depends on the cashier you get. I got $10.00 off my shopping trip! So this post was a little long and alot for yall to read through but I wanted to give yall a run down to try and help my fellow couponers out some! Let me know how it's going for yall!!

Until Next Time
