Publix Grocery Shopping w/ Capri Sun Coupons - 53 Worth of ...

I knew I had to head for Publix yesterday, as Publix has a Capri Sun for $1.79 this week, and I had a bunch of Capri Sun coupons to use, several of them with expiration dates yesterday. Since my husband is back in school full-time and works full-time, there are no rides unless I want to go grocery shopping in the busy afternoons/evenings with three kids in tow. So, despite gloomy weather and threat of rain I bundled up my toddler in the stroller and headed for the stores.?

We managed to get to JoAnn's, CVS Pharmacy, Target and Publix, but when we got to Publix we were running low on time. I had to get back to pick up my two oldest sons at school at 2 p.m., and I left Publix at 1:15 p.m. I had two miles left, and I definitely underestimated the weight of 6 Capri Sun ten packs, 2 Diet Coke 12 packs and the rest of the groceries. I ran some, I walked some and I pushed some....and it was tough! I will admit it, I was beat, and I had to keep the pep talk going. My little one loved his fast stroll, and I was sweating like a pig to say it mildly.?

We made it to my house at 1:45 p.m, and I had a few minutes to unload everything before I continued the walk/run towards the kids school. It usually takes me 10 -15 minutes to walk over there, but I knew I could be five minutes late as they do not come out when the bell rings.?

Just as I was about to run off again, my husband called me...he had gotten out of school early and wanted to know, if we needed him to pick us up since it was still raining. Sigh of relief....!!! My husband was amazed that I was not at school yet, since I am usually very early, and if there are rain in the forecast I might even show up extremely early just to make sure that I am at least at the school to wait with the boys until the rain slows down.?

Grocery shopping surely was like exercising, and before I could pack the groceries away I had to take a shower as running in South Florida is very very hot.

I did get almost all of my grocery shopping done, and I got some amazing savings at Publix.
