Today's Big Score

Today's bargains were found at Publix:
Almost all were BOGO (buy1 get1 free)

Yo Plus Yogurt BOGO 2.50, with 2 $1 coupons-50 cents
Spray & Wash BOGO 2.99, with two .50 cent coupons=1.99
Smart Balance Butter BOGO 3.49, with $1.75 in coupons and a $1 Publix dairy coupon= .74 cents
Gorton's Fish Fillets BOGO 5.49, with $1.55 in coupons= 3.94
Marzetti's Dressings BOGO 3.99, with $1 coupon-2.99
tuna 1.49, with a $1 coupon=.49 cents

I ended up spending $10.55 and saving $29.50 with BOGO's and coupons, which makes for a 74% savings!!! I had picked up the NOT ON SALE fish fillets and the Manager refunded my $ AND the coupon amounts!! The girl told him what I needed & had done and he offered to refund the amount PLUS coupons. Afterwards, Martin said "you realize that was like doubling your coupons?" :) I purchased the correct fish and came away with an extra $1.55.

P.S.
Now remember that you can use 2 coupons when you are buying a BOGO. AND most stores will allow you to use a store coupon AND a manufacturer coupon. Makes for even better savings, especially when grocery stores in Florida do not double coupons!!

I didn't know that about being able to use 2 coupons when it's a BOGO sale! When I was looking at your list of purchases and coupons I was wondering how/why they allowed that. I'll definitely be keeping that in mind from now on when Winn-Dixie has it's BOGO sales!
