Publix: Shopping spree!

I headed out to Publix today with a goal in mind: to use a $10 off $100 coupon from Doris Italian Market, which my Publix considers a competitor. (Doris coupons are also available via Recyclebank.)  I planned a trip using my Publix ad coupon matchup for South Florida. But when I finished buying the items I had planned to buy at Publix, I was a little short.

So, I decided to buy some of the BOGOs that I didn't have matching coupons for, plus the items I intended to buy at my kosher meat market and at ALDI.  This saved me not only $10, but also the time and gas I would've used going to the two other stores.  The items were slightly higher at Publix, to be sure, but the $10 off was greater than the amount I would've saved at the other two stores.  And with gas prices rising again, shopping at just one store is making more sense!

When I laid everything out to take the picture, it took up the whole table.  Wow!
