Great shop at Publix today!! My favorite cashier wasn't there, but the manager that I have talked with a few times actually checked me out. I did four transactions and on the last one, I went negative! I said, oh, let me grab a few things to make it positive, the cashier said, I think I can give it to you. I said, well, I don't want you to get in trouble, and he said, well, let me ask. Sharon came over and said, oh yeah, it's fine, go ahead and give it to her. AWESOME!
I did take some pics of my carts, but I have to get home and upload them. (At grandma's house right now).

A note: I had rainchecks for Morningstar bogo and Charcoal for $7.99. I wanted to do the "deals" when both were on sale a few weeks ago and had coupons with them, but they were expired. I asked CS if I could use the coupons with the items I was purchasing, even if I wasn't actually using the Raincheck (since charcoal was actually cheaper than my raincheck)- they said, no problem. :) So I did use some expired Target and flip q's for Morningstar, charcoal and KC Masterpiece.

Walgreens and Rite Aid 7/2/09
I had to go to Walgreens today for some moneymakers and I went to Rite Aid yesterday. I need to go back to Rite Aid to see if they got more Stayfree in stock, but I did get a raincheck just in case. :)
I could have done better at Walgreens, but I had N bouncing up and down next to me saying she was a)thirsty. Mommy I'm DEHYDRATED! b)had to go to the bathroom c)hungry and Zachary was so tired he just started screaming his head off (and that was with him in the carrier) so I couldn't do the addition in my head. I could have gotten three more fillers for approx. $1 and saved another $5 up front, but I still have the rr's that I'll take with me to Publix tomorrow. :D The best part was the Excedrin. It was buy two, get $5rrs. I had two $2/1 coupons. Then, they had them packaged in twos, so, buy one box, get one free. Instead of getting two 50ct boxes for 4.99/ea minus q's, I got four boxes of 50ct for 4.99/ea, minus $2/ea, then got $5rrs back!

More Free things
Hit up Wal-Mart for a few free deals. I do not shop at Wal-Mart anymore now that I have discovered the Publix love, but occasionally there are free things, and I don't pass up free. Plus it seems like there is a Wal-Mart in every city, and that can't be said for most other grocery stores.
Kotex Pads: Small packs of Kotex pads are $1. Use the $1/1 coupon from the 6/21 paper, or HERE (firefox) or HERE (Explorer) for free pads.
Popsicles: 10pack boxes of Popsicles are $1. Use the $1/1 coupons from the Family is its own Reward booklet (found at Publix) for free popsicles.

Free samples from Wal-Mart
Check out their FREE site. You can sign up for all sorts of freebies, and while the free sample is usually small, there are always accompanying coupons. :) And you all know how I feel about coupons!

Today I received a sample of the new product Sun Crystals and I am excited to try it out in my coffee. It came with a $1 coupon.
There are also samples of Kotex, Playtex, Nature Made, Carefree, and more!
Go HERE to sign up for the free offers...

New coupons from Kraft
Kraft has been going above and beyond with the coupons this summer! The Printables at Cooking with Kraft have been reset. These are good at Publix only, and are manufacturer coupons, so cannot be stacked with manufacturer q's. Get them HERE.
Then, there's a new booklet (of sorts) that you can sign up for HERE. This will be mailed to your home in 4-6 weeks. This is good while supplies last, so go get it now while you still can!

Where did the recycle bin go??
They moved it! I drove by my recycle bin yesterday (an unmanned drop-off spot in front of a Wal-Mart) and there was one huge bin on a truck and one was sitting there but the rest were gone! There were three workers standing around so I drove up and asked what was going on. One guy told me that Wal-Mart ran them off so they were moving the recycle drop-off to a park nearby (Whitman Park?? I think he said). I've no clue where that is, or if it will be manned. Sometimes the manned ones want to give you a hard time when you go poking around in there pulling things out.
I am seriously bummed!!
