Photo Show and Tell – Publix 1/29/10
So, yesterday (Friday) was the last day of Publix’s Green Advantage Buys for the month of January. I had a few coupons left to use so I was determined to use each and every one of them and get as much overage as possible. (Especially since I have received numerous emails and messages about local Publix stores discontinuing overage.) Since I have a HUGE stockpile at home, and since I don’t really need anything, my goal was to come out of pocket as little as possible and to only buy food that the overage would cover. (If you don’t know what overage is, read my post Here) I had to go to two Publix stores – both within a 5 mile radius – in order to use up all of my remaining coupons. My Photo Show and Tell above shows all of the items I bought at both stores. Then, underneath, I show the receipts for each store. It’s a bit hard to read, but on my first transaction I spent $1.24 (5 cents before tax) and saved $103.83. The craziest thing about my first transaction is that my cashier literally couldn’t use all of my coupons so he handed them back to me (I used them at the second store to buy more items). This was a definite first. On my second transaction, I spent $1.69 and saved $42.29. In total, I spent $2.93 on $149.05 worth of groceries! 
Addicted to Saving is back again!
We took a temporary hiatus this evening but we are back with increased internet bandwith and a server that is now prepared to handle all of our traffic! We are growing quicker than expected! It’s a great problem to have!
Don’t forget to buy 2 newspapers tomorrow!

Two Important Notes about Coupons!
First – Remember to buy at least two newspapers tomorrow. There should be two inserts in it: One Red Plum and One Smart Source. Go Here to see a preview of the coupons (they are subject to change depending on where you live).
Second – Just a tip for my couponing newbies – I post printable coupons on a daily basis. I post high value printable coupons which when matched with a sale, they should get you a great deal. A lot of the coupons I post go fast. That said, only print out the coupons that you will need and/or want. Do not go crazy printing out each and every coupon just because I post them. You will waste ink and paper if you do. Instead focus on what you would really use.

Go Here to access the coupon. **Important note – if you print this coupon today (Sat) it will expire tomorrow 1/31/10. Only print today if you will use today or tomorrow. I would recommend waiting to print until Monday with the hopes that the coupon will reset and give you more time to use it!
