Publix Trip

This week's Publix ad doesn't get me awful excited but there are a few things that I wanted to get.  It didn't hurt that the one item I really, really need is a money maker this week.  :-)

Here's what I purchased this morning:

Fresh Express Salad Blend $2.00
2-Smart Balance Low Fat Milk $1.80 each
2-Smart Balance Non-Fat Milk $1.80 each

4-Kraft Velveeta Shells & Cheese $1.00 each
2-Scotch Brite sponges (3 pack) $2.99 each
Cascade Action Packs (20 count) $3.99
3-Travel Pack Schick Razors (for my BIL) .99 each

2-.50/1 Scotch Brite (peelie right on the package and it doubles)
3-$3 off any Schick Razor (money maker)

.50/1 Cascade Home Made Simple coupon booklet (don't forget this doubles)

Total before discounts and coupons:  $50.64 (includes tax)

Total after discounts and coupons:  $8.87 (includes tax)

That was a pretty good trip, especially getting 4 half gallons of specialty milk for better than free!  Also, I found out recently that my brother-in-law likes the cheap razors so every time I put a few in my buggy I get to give them to him.  :-)  I'll be sending my dad one of those nice Hydro or Pro Fusion razors...I just assumed he used an electric razor for some reason.

I'll be going back later in the week to pick up some more better than free milk and a couple more travel Schick razors.  The new Publix policy is a limit of 4 on BOGO items when you have coupons for them.  This limit works for me since it's just the husband and I but if I had a large family that would be frustrating.

I purchased some coupons off Ebay the other day so I'll be heading to Target to pick up free shave gel later on!  It's a great week for free stuff....man, I just love using those coupons!
