Publix Kelloggs 50% Sale & $5/30 gift card success

Had a very successful day today shopping Publix's Kelloggs 50% sale. I made 4 trips. Yes, four, and at 4 different Publix stores. And in one day because I did not have time to take advantage of the sale Saturday.

So, I didn't lay everything out for pictures, but I will add a picture of my pantry soon. We're growing quite a stockpile, and I am compiling a very large donation for a local battered women's shelter. Couponing is such a gift from YHWH :)

Okay, so here's the breakdown. I made a few mistakes (grabbing wrong items), but overall it was extremely successful.
