I love this printable coupon! My Publix store carries the small cans of Muir Glen Tomato Sauce for $0.89, so they will be only $0.39 after coupon. For those of you whose store doubles, these will be a small moneymaker! I like having a few of this coupon around in case I need one more small item so I can use a $5 off $25 Save-a-Lot coupon or a $5 off $30 Winn-Dixie coupon at Publix. The link to the coupon is below:
Today was a very good day for us at Publix! We would have ended up with a negative pre-tax subtotal, except I wanted a Publix Ultimate Sub! (For those of you that haven’t tried Publix subs before, you’re truly missing out!) I had brought a few Phazyme and Sominex coupons, but they were already gone. No big deal – I had really good luck with the Gas-X on the last Green Advantage Flyer.
We were sorely in need of pickles, so I was very happy about that Mt. Olive pickles deal. (There were about five pickle slices left in our last jar.) The Planter’s were a pleasant surprise, as the actual price at the store was a dollar less than I expected. It was also nice to load up on Bird’s Eye veggies too.

Today was a great day of shopping for us at Publix! We loaded up on sports drinks plus got a ton of produce and didn’t spend that much at all! We took 30 of our bottles of Powerade with us. We are picking up the remaining 90 on Saturday via special order (SIX CASES WITH 15 BOTTLES EACH!) We paid for them today, but we didn’t want to deplete their stock of 700 drinks too much. My store had the B10G5 hangtags on some of the drinks, so they will surely go fast.
All of our remaining items are pictured to the right. We broke everything into three transactions today so we could earn a $10 gift card on the first transaction, which we rolled into the second transaction and earned another $10 gift card. We then used the second gift card on the third transaction, which was a smaller transaction that included a lot of produce.
Here is the full listing of what we purchased and the coupons used:
120 POWERADE 32 OZ. BOTTLES, BOGO $1.25

Plus I used a $5/$30 competitor coupon on transactions one and two
Plus I used a Free $10 Publix Gift Card when you buy $50 mailer on transactions one and two
Plus I used a $5/$25 competitor coupon on transaction three
*** I used the $10 Gift Card earned on transaction one to diminish the out-of-pocket on transaction two. I used the $10 Gift Card on transaction two to diminish the out-of-pocket on transaction three. As you can see from the receipts pictured to the right (oops that didn’t save large enough), we had a total of $14.65 out-of-pocket for all three transactions, $6.65 of which was tax. Therefore our pre-tax total was $8.00.
*** Also, note that our savings on the receipts our overstated by $20, as they charge you for the gift card and then deduct $10 for your free gift card coupon. I have adjusted the coupon savings downward to reflect that in the list below, but then I deducted it in a new line item called “Less redemption of gift cards earned today.”
Regular retail price for all items: $207.55 + tax
Special price savings (sales & BOGOs): $81.57
Coupon savings: $97.98
Order subtotal: $28.00
Less redemption of gift cards earned today: $20.00
Real subtotal after adjustments: $8.00
Sales tax on orders: $6.65
GRAND TOTAL INCLUDING TAX: $14.65 (this was exactly our total out-of-pocket expense)
PERCENTAGE SAVED: 96.1% if not including tax; 93.2% if including tax in calculation.
