Grocery Savings

I have only been to Publix one other time, but as part of my January goal to save $25, Jack and I thought we would try our luck there last week. I made a "vow" to only buy things we NEED and not just because something is a good deal. The main things I knew I needed were lots of produce, frozen steamer veggies, and shampoo/conditioner. 

Here's what I got:
6 BirdsEye steamers, 1 bag of salad, turkey bacon (only thing I bought not on sale), bananas, asparagus, 2 orange juices, cantaloupe, squash, zucchini, 5lb bag of potatoes, 2 boxes of cereal, 1 box of spaghetti noodles, 1 bag of Tostitos, shampoo and conditioner.

I spent $43.08 and saved... (drumroll please)... $24.65!! So in one shopping trip, I saved as much as I wanted to this whole month! And I thought I was being ambitious...

I will definitely be back! Great deals, great food, and unbelievable customer service. Even though it's out of the way from where I normally shop - so far, it's worth the extra drive.

  2. publix is my favorite.. it actually is more expensive than bilo (I find) but when you get good deals they make a world of a difference. I actually would rather pay the extra so I can enjoy my shopping trip. I like to go "food" shopping (alone) that is ME TIME.. Good job on the deals by the way! Isn't it so clean and pretty in there? I swear the food taste fresher too!
