Publix Penny Item 8/30/09-8/31/09

The penny item this week is the PUBLIX GREENWISE TOILET PAPER, thanks to www.iheartpublix.com.

Remember, to get this penny item, you must have $10 in total purchase before coupons and clip the penny item coupon found in the Publix Sunday ad.

Don't forget, if you are in the Middle Tennessee area, you can purchase your Sunday Tennnessean newspaper for $.99!

Getting ready for my fave day of the week...

Okay. I am definitely a dork! I LOVE Sundays!

First, and foremost, that is the day when I get a fresh set of coupons! I also do most of my shopping on Sundays bright and early while the stores are semi-quiet. Sunday is also the day I find out which item at Publix is the "penny item" for Sunday and Monday! For those of you who don't know what the penny item is, each week Publix chooses a house brand item that is eligible for purchase when you spend $10 or more (before coupons). Some stores are requiring that you have the little "penny item" coupon from their Sunday insert to receive the special, but some don't. Also, you can only redeem one penny item per purchase.

Ok, now that I have "bunny trailed", my final reason to love Sunday is that after the madness of the morning has ended, I get to spend it with my favorite people in the world, hubby G and daughter H.

Hello and welcome to my cheap world!

This is my first post on Tennessee Tightwad, and I want to take the time to introduce myself.

Hello, my name is Stacey, and I am a coupon addict. Yes, I am one of THOSE people. I love to shop and get a bargain at the same time, so this is the perfect addiction.

The purpose of this blog is to chronicle my shopping trips and share all the great deals that are available to us out there. I will highlight the stores that are available in my area, Murfreesboro, TN, such as Kroger, Publix, CVS, Walgreens, and any other store that may come along.

I invite you to jump on board with me on the savings express and learn to shop for more with less!
