Publix trip ~ 8/10/09 ~ SAVED $166.26 (93% savings)

I made a Publix run last night and I did one shop, my hubby the other. Combined I spent $12.96 OOP and SAVED $166.26...It was a great shop. They were out of several things that I needed, and some things were not included in the sale here...so I had to rework alot of my shop on the fly! I was expecting an even lower total than this but because I had to get rainchecks on a few things, the total was slightly higher. No biggie though because with a 93% savings I certainly can't complain. They were out of the charcoal that was on sale, so the manager substituted another same size bag for the $7.99 price ;-) That's why I lOVE PUBLIX!!! Customer Service is their top priority!

These deals are still good thru today(Tues)!!!

I really need to learn what I can double up. I thought you couldn't use 2 MQ coupons. I see you used 2 on the welch's or is that bc 1 was applied to the welch's and one to milk? I see on the GG she says to use one from SS or RP and one from PG. I didn't think that was legit, so I don't do it. Is it?

Keeping up with the Kennedy's said...

Hey Steph...
Okay, let me clarify...You can not use 2 MQ's on the same product...that is NOT legit! The way the jelly worked was one MQ gave cents off the jelly...the other MQ gave cents off the milk for buying the jelly...see what I mean? I probably should have listed the milk Q with the milk...that's how I normaly do it, I just didn't think about it...sorry for the confusion! On GG I did not see the P&G Q your talking about...only the SS 7/26 for the milk...although it called for $1 off milk and ours was only $0.75 off. Hope that helps! I will be setting up an extreme coupon class shortly...I let you know when and we can go over exactly these types of question ;-) I'll email you when I get it set. Thanks for the comment!!! Hopefully this clarifies thing for everyone else too ;-)

that's what I assumed, why you could use both. the MF Q where they doubled up was not for the jelly and milk. it was for something else, like toilet paper and paper towels and I didn't think it was right to do that, so I didn't. thanks can't wait to hear about the class.
