If that’s even a word! But that really doesn’t matter. Good Ole Snapple was BOGO at Publix this past week. You know buy one get one FREE! As if that wasn’t good enough, there were PRINTABLE coupons $1.00 off 1 6 pk available on line – here http://print.coupons.com/Couponweb/Offers.aspx?pid=14803&zid=rd17&nid=10 – Courtesy of All YOU magazine.
So what that means is I was able to get 2 - 6packs of Snapple for $2.99.
Now here’s what I did to make this a super deal! There are rebate forms out there for Snapple. So I’m sending in my receipts for these, which means, I get $4.99 back from Snapple! Yes on the original price because that’s how the receipt rings it up.
What it comes down to in the end is that Snapple pays me $1.00 for taking each 6 pack off the shelf! I think I ended up with 12 6 packs. Yippee or should I say Ahhhhhhh!
and like it’s printed on the shampoo bottle – Lather, Rinse and Repeat!
Ka – ching!
The past two weeks . . .

Check out the total on the receipt.
Well I’ve been quite busy. There were some great sales at my Publix and Albertson’s this week. I spent quite a bit more out of pocket the past two weeks but when you net it all out – I only spent $2.15 – if I did the math right.
My total out of pocket expense was $330.11. But, and this is a BIG but, part of what I brought home was 6 – $50 Shell Gas cards! So that takes me down to $30.11. Well that would be great, but I also have to fill out 4 rebate forms for some Clorox 2 worth $6.99 each. So that brings my actual expense to only $2.15 cents! That’s right only $2.15. Now that’s just awesome! Especially considering I brought home over 780 items! That’s right over 780 items. Some of the items are pictured above. The Savings for the two weeks was over $1800 dollars.

Quite the haul. I filled all my friends freezers with free food and what I won’t be using will be going to a local food bank or shelter. Nothing will go to waste. Some people ask why do you buy if it you don’t use it. Well in some cases you have to purchase something to get what you do want – for free. I’ll get in to that when I start documenting how I do my couponing. Trust me – I never overpay for anything anymore. I know better now!
It’s been a while but . . . . . I’ve still been saving!

March 26, 2009 by bayshoreguyGo ahead – click on the link! Pass it on
http://www.freedietdrpepper.com/
Dr Pepper will send you a coupon for a FREE Diet Dr Pepper. I chose the 2 litre bottle a couple of weeks back and used it this week at Publix. They had a Buy One Get One special this week on Pepsi products and Dr Pepper was included! So I ended up getting both 2 litre bottles for FREE.
The coupon expires on 6/30/09 so you have plenty of time to use it. After all who doesn’t like free soda!
Publix Shopping the week of 3/18/09
March 26, 2009 by bayshoreguyWell I’m not going to list all my shopping trips this week – but needless to say it was a very good week! My freezers are full – that’s right I said freezers! I have 2 1/2 of them and due to the great deals they are full to the brim! I’ve also been known to borrow some friends freezer space, with the understanding they can eat whatever is in there. They seldom refuse this deal.
This past week deals at Publix meant a lot of FREE Kashi frozen entrees – Chicken Florentine is my favorite. Actually, it wasn’t FREE. They actaully paid me .21 cents to take 2 of them off their shelves! LOL.
And the bigger deal was for the Smart Balance Buttery Spread (2) , Butter Blend Sticks and Milk. With the right coupons it came out to 79 cents for all 4 of them.
Other good stock up items were – Cheap Tropicana OJ, Ocean Spray Cranberry, Fresh Express, TGIF Skillets, B/C Cake mix, Mentos and a few other items.
Total Out of Pocket spent - 51.37
