Saved 76% at Publix - 01/27/11

This weeks shopping trip corresponds to the current sales ad.  This week I made a mistake at the store and purchased Cole's bread sticks rather than New York bread sticks which were 50% off.  I did not realize my mistake until after I left the store.  Publix was willing to exchange them for the right brand but that would entail Publix throwing away the Cole's bread sticks.  So, I decided to keep them because there is no need to throw away perfectly good food.  Even with the screw up I still saved a lot!
