October 11 Publix Shopping Trip: $70 Worth in Groceries for $14! Weekly Link Up Brag!

All for $14!

Did you get your orange juice deal on ibotta this week (it's on any OJ, not brand specific)? The offer is still going on for a few more days with a TON of other great deals. If you don't have the free app yet, you really need to give it a shot. I've earned over a good chunk of change with ibotta offers on TOP of all the fabulous coupons you can use. Check out my post on ibotta here. I really feel like it takes couponing to the next level. :)

This week we stocked up on some great items. Even though I wasn't loving this weeks sale, I usually can walk away with a few good deals I'm excited about. I loved that the 'blinkie' Apple & Eve coupons were right by the juice boxes already on sale so it was easy to spot. For a dollar a pack, I will probably go back and grab a few more! We have my daughter's first birthday party coming up and that would be perfect to have on hand for the kiddos to drink.

 

Can't believe my baby doll is already one!
Happy Birthday to my sweet angel!

Speaking of kids, I have already begun to set aside toys and gifts for the upcoming holiday season. I have recently written a post with a few simple ways to save money this season called: Tips for Having a Merry Christmas (and Not Going Broke) This is Part One of a two part post specifically on tips for living frugally over the holidays. Something to read over and think about before we are in the thick of holiday spending.

So how'd it go this week? Maybe you are just getting down to planning your list. Please come back and share with us!
