In the paper yesterday, our area received a $2.00 Starbucks Ice Cream coupon. At Publix, they are on sale BOGO (meaning $1.80 and $1.79 each). What does this mean?? OVERAGE!!! I have several coupons and some "minor difficulty" with extra coupons, so I decided to try out a new Publix store. Loved the store, but hated my math errors!! I used a Competitor Coupon and wasn't sure if they would allow overage on the Revlon and the Vitamins, so I threw in the 2 half & half's and I could have added a canteloupe. Had I thrown in the canteloupe, my total OOP would have been cheaper. This week's sale at Publix will be going on until Wednesday or Thursday (depending on your area).

Bethany,
Thank you SO much for posting this shopping list. It has helped me so much. I think just being able to see what you did here was so much easier. I couldn't figure out how you were doing it, now I see the overage thing. However, I still don't know how you know in advance what it's going to cost and what your overage will be. I still need to come to Atlanta and do a trip with you. But this week I am basically buying everything you bought, except in smaller quantities b/c I only get one paper.
Thanks again!
