Free Groceries Giveaway!

With all the great deals at Publix this week, and the past fews at Kroger & Bi-Lo, it’s time to see how far you could stretch a gift card.

I am giving two lucky folks a $50 gift card to the Southern Savers grocery store of their choice. 

The catch, the two winners will have to take a picture of their trips and report back (on Southern Savers) to tell us how much $50 actually bought them!!

It’s the first time I’ve made the winners work for their prize, but it makes it more fun for everyone.  This giveaway will go until Friday at noon.  You can enter two different ways:

  1. Comment below with what store you would want a gift card to, and how much in retail value you think you could get with $50.
  2. Blog or Twitter about the giveaway and then comment here letting me know you did.

Winners will be randomly choosen and will be emailed Friday afternoon.  If you have never left a comment on Southern Savers new comments are moderated and might not appear for a little while.

              Many of you have emailed or commented about a $5 off 20 participating products coupon found at Publix.  Most are finding this on a Italian Sale Display up front or near the Progresso soups. (Click here for image -thanks Kelly and Melissa!)

              This coupon paired with manufacturer coupons makes for lots of free groceries! The coupon is good through 3/4 so I would grab a few of them and get what is on sale this week with it and wait for other products to see if they go on sale next week.  Click here for the coupon matches.  The list below is prices after coupons.

              The participating products for the coupon are:
