Publix 5/17 – Profit $0.94 on $50.72 of Merchandise (101.9% Saved)

I’m leaving town in a few days, so I decided to use this trip to tie up a few loose ends before I left. (I wouldn’t want my dog to get stuck eating only dry food before I get back. She’s going to be depressed enough with me gone!) Even though my Beneful raincheck covers ten items, I didn’t think I’d come up with enough coupons to buy the full ten, so I just used the raincheck today so I could pick up some more wet dog food with the overage. (I’m running a little low.) I also decided to eat a “bad” meal today and it was oooohh sooooo good. The deli special on the Mojo Pork Sub Meal is outstanding! BTW, the drink and half the sub were gone before I took the picture!

I didn’t want to buy anything that would waste while I was gone and I didn’t have any special requests from the roommate, so I didn’t buy too much. Here’s the list of what I bought and the coupons used:

SIX BENEFUL DOG FOOD, raincheck for BOGO $5.39
Used six $2/1 Beneful Publix Paws printable coupon

    I went out to Lithia today to go to the state park and I seen someone selling bags of Beneful on the side of the road….Looked like a Publix sale to me……

  4. Have a fun and save trip : ) Njoyyyyyyyyy…………

  5. I meant SAFE hahaha always thinking of SAVINGS when i’m on your site hahahaha

  6. It looks like the publix salad coupon says $2 off 2 unless that was a typo that coupon was used incorrectly.

    • It was a $2 off a Publix produce department purchase of $2 or more coupon. I forgot the $ after the /. Thanks for pointing that out. Fixed now :)

  7. SuperSaver says:

    Is there any way I can get the manufacturer coupon if I dont have the paper? Can I print them?

    • SuperSaver says:

      I really want to buy 100 cans of the beneful and use 100 of each coupon. That way I could get $131 and donate 100 cans of dog food to the humane society for free! :D Do you think the store would have a problem giving me this much cash back? If so can I just purchase $131 more stuff at publix?

    Used my 2.00 of at walmart, trial size are 1.00 so I had 20 overage since used20 coupons, Lady try to give me a hard time because coupon was working and it was more than merchandise. We had to school her on their coupon policy. I walked out with free dog food and some merchandise to use overage. I prefer to shop at Publix but once in while I try to go the the Hell Hole.
