And The Answer Is.......

So I know you have all just been dying in anticipation to know just how much I saved on my grocery shopping trip this week. Not really, I know I am just humoring myself. But I did have a few guesses, so I thought I needed to share the answer.

Here is the stash of groceries again:
I bought these groceries at Winn Dixie and Publix.
I spent a grand total of: $40.73
The retail price of these groceries before sales and coupons is: $162.41
Which makes my savings: $121.68

Still, I bought a few things that were not on sale and a newspaper, of course
I'd say that is a win!!

I'm not going to list everything this time, but I'll make a few notable purchases.
3 tubs Land O Lakes Butter - Free
3 pkg. Betty Crocker Cookie Mix - .53 each
3 Healthy Choice Steamers - .50 each
23 jars baby food - .13 each
6 pkg. Fiber One Yogurt - .25 each (good thing I have chosen to like yogurt now)
Publix Brand Coke - .01

and the list could go on and on :)

So again, if you are interested in couponing at all, go to southernsavers.com . They do all the work for you. And for my Louisiana friends, they have Kroger Ads and comparisons.

After I was finished making my purchase at Publix yesterday, the lady behind me told the cashier, "I only have one coupon". She had a little smart tone to her voice when she said it. Do you think it bothered me? Heck No! If I can save my family this much money, I will gladly have the cashier scan my handful of coupons.
