Where did you find free milk coupons??? Yep, color me jealous! ;-)
ReplyDeleteHello Tina,
ReplyDeleteI was thrilled with the free milk coupons. They were/are available on coupons.com for select zip codes (63090 and I can't find the others.) I hope they are still left. The free milk is for your total before coupons, Free WYB $100 groceries. My total was just above $200 with tax before coupons, so I hope that counts.
Awesome job!! Thanks for sharing.... I see A LOT of freebies I missed this week.... bummed that I just gave away my shave gel coupons.
ReplyDeleteHi, forgive my ignorance, but what do you mean by "Target Q?"? Do you mean that you are using Target store coupons at Publix? I didn't know that you could do that! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHello Robbin,
ReplyDeletePubilx will accept various competitor store coupons. Mine will take Target coupons. Not all do. Check with your customer service desk to find out for sure which competitors your store will honor. Usually, it's based on the local grocery and drugstores in the area.
Great thing is, generally you can use one manufacturer and one store coupon (Publix or competitor, but not both) stacked together on each item. Stacking coupons this way can give you maximum savings!
hi i love your stie.. was wondering about the skintmate coupon from target where did you find that one?
ReplyDeleteHello Anonymous.
ReplyDeleteI found a huge jackpot of these Target Skintimate coupons at my gym. They have had them out in displays all summer. Every time I go, I pick up a few. I really like the high-value store coupons b/c they can be combined with manufacturer coupons for maximum savings!
(Psst... I'm going to have a giveaway soon. Be sure to check back!)
awsome will do:) thank you a ton!
