Publix time!

We got back from our busy weekend and I wanted to stock up on the Dole fruit bowls while they were BOGO at Publix.  I wanted to get them for my Dad since he loves them and always buys them regardless of price.  My plan is to stock up and when he wants them I will 'shop at my house unbeknownst to him' and save him some money.  He will use coupons, but does not understand the stockpile principle.  Plus when I shop with or for him, he will pay $5.76 for just 2 packages of these things!  Without blinking an eyelash!  Yikes! His response: "Yeah, but they're good!"

Here we go:
2 Ruffles 3.99/2 (yeah, more chips...we've had sick folks in our house and chips for whatever reason is what we crave when we are sick...)
12 pkgs Dole fruit cups  1.32ea - .50/2  =  .82ea (vs. 2.65ea!)
2 hot dog buns  1.17ea
2 pkgs hot dogs 2.99 and 3.99ea   -3.99 Q (Kroger Q for free OM hot dogs) cashier took off higher priced ones!  Thank you!  I wasn't planning on that one!)
6 Bertolli pasta sauce  1.35ea - .60/1  = .75ea

Total OOP:  24.60
Total before Q and sales:  66.05

I went back the next day and... Look what else I found at Publix! (31.50)
