Publix

Once again, I looked at the Publix ad for this week and thought, "Nothing."
By "nothing" I mean, nothing I need/want that I want to pay for. I don't mind paying some for something I need or want, but otherwise I want it free or better yet, money-maker.

But that was getting boring, so I figured I'd change it up this week and spend some money. I looked at Michelle's (iheartpublix) best deals list and picked out a few things .50 or less and made my list.

Since my regular Publix stopped taking my $5/$25 RAq this week, they lost my loyalty so since I was visiting another town to go to different Rite Aids, I visited different Publii, too.
Turned out, one of the ones I had thought stopped accepting the $5/$25 a long time ago, didn't. They still do, plus Target, Rite Aid and Walgreens. Think I have a new (old) Publix!

I don't know what, if any, Compettitor q's the other Publix accepted. I didn't have any to use, so didn't ask.

Some of my deals:
