Breakfast Savings at Publix

It's time to re-think your breakfast routine! Challenge yourself and discover how much time and money you could save during the week by shopping and eating breakfast at home.

The most important meal you eat is breakfast and the way to make it healthy is to eat at home. We do every day. It's easy to pull out a box of your favorite cereal, with some fresh fruit on top, and just pour on some milk. Just plan an extra 5 minutes into your morning and you'll thank yourself later when you avoid eating snacks from the vending machines or junk food in your cupboard.

 

April 1st - April 10th during the Publix® Breakfast Savings event, take advantage of great savings on some of your family's favorites like Honey Nut Cheerios, Cinnamon Toast Crunch and other General Mills breakfast items. For coupon offers on varieties your whole family will love, visit the Publix Breakfast Savings page at http://www.everydaysaver.com/publix.

Amazon $25 GC Giveaway #dewcrew - CLOSED

Did you watch the NASCAR race this weekend? It was quite the thriller with a few laps to go and the lead change. My favorite #dewcrew Hendrick driver didn't win this time, but there are nine more races to go.

I did enjoy a nice cold refreshing Diet Mt Dew though while watching the race. Mountain Dew is the ONLY soda that I'll drink and I just stocked up at the store last week with twelve 12 packs! I love the fresh, light flavor and it goes down smooth when you're thirsty and hot. It's my favorite beverage in the afternoon to keep me wide awake.

And you can enjoy it too! Join the #dewcrew. They are providing a $25 Amazon Gift card code to one lucky reader in this giveaway. The giveaway ends on Friday, September 21 at 5pm PST. Open to US residents Only. Submissions after this date and time will not be considered eligible to win.

$25 Target Gift Card

Don't forget to enter my #giveaway for a $25 Target Gift Card and General Mills gift package which includes Hefty bags, Cheerios, Grape Jelly, Granola Bars, Fruit Snacks and Hamburger Helper products. The giveaway closes tonight 8/31/2010 at midnight.

 

I just used my Target gift card to yesterday to score some cheap Mt Dew and Sobe water.

Getting Rid of My Stockpile

Over the past year I've accumulated quite a bit of product (food and household supplies) that was either free or a moneymaker. I actually still have stuff I bought last year not realizing how long it would last. So I was at happy hour with a friend who was telling me how she goes to Target and spends $300 every month buying stuff for her house like paper towels, laundry detergent, shampoo, toothpaste, deodorant, cleaning products, and food. I told her I had most of that stuff in my stockpile and was planning on having a garage sale to sell most of it. She said she wants the whole bunch of it.

 

So I made a list of over 100 items valued at over $350, priced an average of $1 each and I'm going to sell her 6 boxes of product for $100. Its totally a win-win deal because she needs the stuff, and I don't. I'm going to take the cash and get Publix gift cards for my shopping in July.

 

This month I spent about $70 in cash, and used $95 in gift cards for about $165 in spending. To me that seems a little high, since there are only two of us. We did stock up on chicken and Mt Dew, but I would like to be at about $100 for the month. I think having gift cards is like having free money so I spend it more freely, but really I should change my mindset here.

 

Anyway, I'm super excited to sell my stockpile. Even though I've moved out 6 boxes of stuff, it hardly made a dent in the spare room. Still lots of gatorade, powerade and SOBE to move through. 

 

I am wondering if I sold the stuff too cheap. Like the Olay Regenerist pump facial cleanser for a $2? All detergent 50 oz for $1.50? 

 

What do you think are fair prices to sell your stockpile items?  

 

Don't forget to enter the Wanchai Dinner and Tea set Giveaway which closes tomorrow. Your chances are REALLY good to win!

Yummy Dinner Giveaway

The other night we had just gotten back from a nice motorcycle ride from the out of town Publix and then we had to shock the pool, and before you know it - I was hungry for dinner. Since we just stocked up on ice cream, I wanted to use up something from the freezer, so I grabbed the bag of Wanchai Ferry Beef & Broccoli meal. I flopped it on the counter and was reading the back to figure out how long to microwave it. Since we just finished our kitchen remodel, I love the turning plate to cook microwave meals. Anyway, I was disappointed to determine that this meal required cooking on the stove top. I was trying to figure out how to make it in the microwave but once I opened the bag I realized the rice packet could indeed be microwaved, but the sauce packet was frozen and needed to be simmered with the frozen vegetables and few pieces of beef. The serving size is not very big on this product, so you better either add more rice or have it as a side dish.

 

We ended up cooking it in a saucepan on the grill while we did some of our backyard chores. We also added some filet mignon leftovers to make it meatier. The product itself is a little sparse in meat, but the flavor is great. It doesn't have MSG or lots of fat, but man it tasted wonderful. The vegetables were colorful with tender broccoli bites, sweet red pepper strips and crunchy water chestnuts. It tasted like a restaurant meal!

 

This was a great quick and lite meal and I would definitely consider getting it if Publix had it on BOGO and there were coupons to stack with the sale. It is kind of pricey, and there are lots of great frozen meals out there that you can get for one buck if you stack a good sale with a good coupon. So while you're waiting for a sale to come along at your favorite store, here's a coupon for $1.50 off one HERE.

 

If you want to see what other wonderful flavors or meal tips they have you can visit the Wanchai Ferry website HERE. Be sure to try the two additional new flavors - Kung Pao Chicken and Szechuan Style Chicken, which will soon join five other delicious meals including Orange Chicken, Shrimp Lo Mein, Spicy Garlic Chicken and Sweet & Sour Chicken.

 

As a bonus for my readers, One (1) lucky reader will receive a Wanchai Ferry prize pack that includes a VIP coupon for a Wanchai Ferry Frozen Entree and two tea sets (2 mugs, 2 tea strainers, and 2 tins of green tea).
Please leave a comment about what Asian flavor you would like included in this product line; include a valid email address or you may contact me directly with your contact information if you win. This giveaway will end at midnight on June 30. Winner will be picked from Random.org. 
Open to US and Canadian residents only. 
Good Luck.
