publix paid me a penny

i finally went to the grocery store today. i was supposed to go last friday. but, nausea plagued me for so many days that the thought of stepping into a grocery store with so much food was too much for this pregnant girl's weak stomach. i finally made it there today! anyways, here is my favorite deal from this shopping trip:

1 box of special k cereal

2 boxes of kashi go lean crunch cereal

total spent: $0
total earned: $0.01

yep, publix paid me a penny for those three boxes of healthy cereal. thanks publix.

scenario:

kashi was on sale, two for $5. i had two $3 off coupons. so, i earned $1 for buying them. then, special k was buy one get one free, which made the cost of one box $1.99. i had a coupon for a $1 off special k, which made the cost $0.99. with the dollar i earned and the $0.99 i paid, i still made a penny. woo hoo! freebies are so much fun.
