Today was a pretty good day for us at Publix. We had a shopping trip that was healthier than usual, and we didn’t have to buy many staples because we were so well stocked on eggs, meat, milk and cheese already. (We’re also not really using the milk too often, as we are low-carbing about six days per week.) We did our Kimberly-Clark rebate and it was a moneymaker, plus we loaded up on dry dog food, cat food, and low-carb necessities, such one carb Hebrew National hot dogs, Hormel pepperoni, broccoli and celery.
Here’s the full breakdown of what we bought and the coupons used (six transactions total):
