Here's my grocery deal of the day- my total was $ 47.75 with tax. I could have also had some Publix pasta sauce but I think it sucks so I abstained. The Mr. is sort of over my bargaining and chicken eating so notice the red meat ha ha.
I had a great weekend. I enjoyed seeing my in laws Saturday. Today is not only Memorial Day but also my FIL's 80th birthday. He is a Veteran and a great man. My daughter is so blessed to have him a grandfather. Happy Birthday, Pop!

Yay! I found a deal on my own!

So I have been really into bargaining and stockpiling lately. Much to the dismay of the man who used to refuse to eat frozen food (aka: The Mr.). Hmphttt. Be that as it may, I have been putting together deals I find off a number of sources, printing coupons, hoarding papers, etc. . . I've always had a pretty good memory for numbers so I recall that at Publix this week the Post Trail Mix Crunch cereal was buy one get one free. So that makes it $2 a box (or close to it).

With this coupon HERE - it can be free. Yay!

Go. Now.

If you buy $ 10 worth of stuff (before coupons), you can get the infamous Publix one cent item today. Yesterday it was Publix Potato Chips. Not my favorite. But sometimes if you go on Mondays they have run out and replace it with something really good. Like brownies.

I got some of this cereal on a tip when it was on sale at Walgreens. The Mr. liked it okay but I thought it kind've (yes I know that is not a word but I like it) sucked. You can go HERE for recipes to turn it into something tasty like muffins. Or share the couponing love and donate it. Or take it to work and leave it in the break room. I have a theory that people will eat just about anything out of a break room at work .
