I started this week anew with $40 in cash to use towards my Weekly Grocery Challenge! I actually ended up going to the store 2 times this week, but only one of my trips is pictured. The first trip cost me around $12 OOP at Publix. While it was not a great trip, I was able to stock up on Apple Juice, Eight O’ Clock Coffee, and milk. My second trip was much better! I SPENT $20.30 and SAVED $109.20! Here is what I scored ::
-4 bags of Fast Fixin’ Chicken Nuggets BOGO @ $5.99 each 
Used 4 $1/1 coupons from HERE (register first before you can print the coupons)
Stacked with 2 $1/1 Publix coupons from the Healthy Meals, Healthy Kids booklet (coupon expires 3/20)
= $3.96 for 4 bags of chicken nuggets!
-4 Tombstone Pizzas BOGO @ $5.49 each
Used 2 $3/2 tearpad coupons that I found on a stand-alone display at Publix
= $ 4.98 for 4 pizzas!
-4 boxes of assorted Oreos and 4 boxes of Oreo Cakesters BOGO @ $3.39 each
Used 2 FREE Cakesters wyb Oreo Cookies coupons + 2 $1/1 Nabisco Cookie coupons from a calendar that I had for a promotional offer last year. Techically, I think that I could have used 2 more Free Cakester coupons-oh well, I still got a sweet deal!
= $4.58! I know, that is a lot of Oreo Cookies, but I will be giving some away, I promise!
-3 McCormick Salt and Pepper Grinders @ $1.50 each
Used 3 $1/1 coupons from HERE
Stacked with 3 .55/1 Publix coupons from the Healthy Meals, Healthy Kids booklet (coupon expires 3/20)

Used 6 $2/1 coupons from the 2/7 RP
= $5.94 for 6 bottles of laundry detergent! (Like I need more after all the FREE Purex from Walgreens, right? 🙂

No coupon, but I love
t

3 bottles of Hidden Valley Farmhouse Salad Dressings @ $3.45 each
Used 3 $2/1 coupons from the 3/14 SS
Stacked with 3 $1/1 Publix coupons from the Healthy Meals, Healthy Kids booklet (coupon expires 3/20)
= $1.35 for 3 bottles of yummy dressing!
+ $5/30 Winn Dixie Competitor Coupon
Filler items since I had more coupons that items in my cart: (some places allow a manager to override if you have more coupons that items. I find, however, that
it is just easier in the long run to find some little filler items of things that I can use)
1 bulb of garlic @ .20
1 lime @ .25
1 black Plum @ .25 (love these—yummy!)
1 yellow onion @ .20
I still want to go back for some of the Prego Sauce, Wish Bone Dressing, as well as few other things. I am headed out of town for the weekend with my hubby for a birthday getaway and just had to go to Publix before we leave! 🙂 I did not want to miss out on the chicken nuggets, Hidden Valley Dressing, and McCormick Grinders since the Publix coupons for those items expire on the 20th!
Stay tuned for next week’s Challenge to see what $40 will get me! 🙂 I plan on hitting the Produce Market for some fresh produce!
