I've always used I Heart Publix (www.iheartpublix.com), and they look pretty much the same. I'll have to see if they have different info. Our goal at Publix is to save at least 50%. Usually, we hit it unless we're buying unusual and not on sale (ie, pure maple syrup for making granola). I'm still working on breaking Robert of the idea that we should buy <i>anything</i> that's on sale with coupon (such as ice cream, doughnuts, cream-filled frozen bagels, etc.).<br /><br />I've always used to coupon binder method, with baseball card holders. I find it's much easier than shuffling through a stack of coupons, since they're displayed easily. On the other hand, it does take more time to put them in, so each to his own. <br /><br />I hope we can see yall around Thanksgiving!Danahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12572283085110048084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38895033.post-81145590684385458462009-09-30T05:17:53.547-07:002009-09-30T05:17:53.547-07:00I'm glad to see that someone else spends so mu...I'm glad to see that someone else spends so much time on this. Sometimes, when there are several coupon booklets in the Sunday paper I can spend almost all day on cutting and organizing and then parsing out the stores/sales/coupons. <br /><br />Since we got our Macs I haven't figured out how to print the internet coupons. Can't say I've tried hard. I need to figure that one out.<br /><br />I went to Walgreens yesterday and had kind of a disappointment. Not really because of their policy though. The cashier didn't understand the sales paper. Some shampoo, regularly $3.49 was on sale for $2.99 with a $2 RR. I had a coupon for $2 off. She rung it up at $3.49 and it didn't show that it was on sale. I told her that it was on sale, there was a tag underneath this shampoo in the aisle. She then started explaining how I would get the register rewards after the transaction, blah, blah, blah. I let it go because, of course, there was a line forming behind me and I didn't want to get into it over 50 cents. THEN, I did a second transaction. Their Puffs is .89 a box right now, awesome price. I bought six boxes but she charged me for 7 because there were so many things on the counter she started getting confused about what she had rung up. Looking back, I should have taken a little more control. I lost almost $1.50 due to her oversight or lack of knowledge. Not a big deal in the grand scheme of things, but it bothers me when I was purposely trying to save as much money as possible.Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08038052536284974596noreply@blogger.com
