I did well earlier in the week, our church needed candy for our Fall Festival, so I shopped the Wags sales with my coupons and got a ton of candy and saved $27.  I also earned a ton of reward points, which I need to find out how to use them????  I haven't done that yet.

Yesterday, I shopped the Publix sales.  Here's a few of my better deals.  Bear in mind, getting ready for our Thanksgiving trip to North Carolina, and we always take a load of goodies to the kids when we go to stay.
Totinos Pizzas....my son in law loves them...were 4/$5...found coups on Coupons.com for $1/4, making those $1 each.  Totinos Pizza rolls were bogo at $4.29 for 2 bags, had coupons for .40/2, big whoop right?, coupon from 8/5 SS made those $1.95 per bag.  Caribou Ground Coffee was bogo at $9.99 for 2, had coupons from SS 9/16 for $2/1, making those $2.99 per bag.  Libbys Skinny fruits were $1ea, had coupons from RP 8/26 for $1/4, making those .75 each.  Bar S hotdogs were bogo at $1.49 for 2, had coupons for .75/2 making those .37 per package.....whoo hoo.  McCormick spices were NOT on sale, but had a coupon (coupons.com) for $1.75/2, so those were a better than normal deal.  Activia yogurts were 4pk for $2, had coupons from SS 9/16 for .75/1, making those $1.25 each.  Bounty paper towels and Charmin Bath Tissue were $10.99 for the big packages....don't normally buy them because the coupons are like .25/1...big deal...but there is a promotion going on through 10/31 where if you spend $30 on P & G products in 1 shopping trip, you can earn a free set of Pink cooking utensils.  The set last year was a baking set and was really nice.  The forms are behind the counter at customer service and their are a ton of different products that qualify.  I also bought the Aussie hair care and Herbal Essence hair care products were were on sale for 2/$5, had coupons $1/1from RP 10/7, making those $1.50 each.  Those will go into some of my Christmas gift bags.  Publix brand onion soup mix (which is just as good as Liptons) was only .99 each.  I bought some meat and vegetables & fruits also and the fixins for Chile for Fla/Ga game too.

I felt like the shop was a pretty good one...although I spent more than I have in a long time!!!  However, I saved $140.08, spent $201.64.

Also, don't forget about Dollar Trees, from what I've been reading, some folks are doing pretty well there with coupons.  Need to check them out every so often.  Have a great rest of the weekend.  God Bless....Rhonda Goff
