My Awesome Publix Bargain Brag!

Here is what I got at Publix Saturday.  Not pictured is two 12pks of Mt. Dew (so keep that in mind when I tell you how much I paid for it all!)

Before I tell you, take a look.  Get a number in your head.  Think hard because I really want to blow you away!  :)))  Don’t forget the two 12 packs of Mt. Dew too (those things are regularly $5 at Publix anyway!)

Okay, here’s how it breaks down:
Shelf Cost: $53.03
Discounts (sales): $17.20
Coupons: $26.52
Tax: $2.04
Final cost to me: $11.35 
Savings rate of 82%!!!

I also went to Winn-Dixie Saturday.  It wasn’t a great trip but I wanted the meal deal and they had BOGO sales on Old El Paso stuff (we love Taco Night!).  I spent $38.05, saved $31.41.  I bought the wrong chicken (not the ones that were on BOGO), they are still out of an item I got a raincheck on 2 weeks ago (I had to get a raincheck on my raincheck) and the cashier tried to argue with me about one of my coupons I was using with the Meal Deal (“But you’re getting it free.”  “Yes, I know but unless something has changed since last week you’re supposed to take the coupon.”)  So, I left Winn-Dixie in a frump for the third time out the last four that I’ve been there.  Maybe I need to switch to Publix for a while???  :)))
