Publix Grand Opening: Auburn, AL Location Coupon Policy

This is for all you ESMer’s in WAR EAGLE territory! Our Publix guru in Montgomery/Auburn, who just happens to be one of my best friends, has given us an exclusive look at the new Auburn, AL store’s coupon policy.

The Publix Grand Opening in Auburn, Alabama is tomorrow, June 2nd at 7 a.m. The address for the new store is 2417 Moores Mill Road and their phone number, if you have any questions, is (334) 502-8667.

 
Here is the Auburn, Alabama Publix Coupon Policy
 
They WILL allow stacking: One Publix coupon and one Manufacturer coupon per item or one Manufacturer coupon and one Competitors coupon per item.
 
They WILL accept Competitor coupons. The one’s they WILL accept are Winn Dixie, Kroger, Piggly Wiggly, and any store that is 60% groceries or more. They WILL NOT accept Rite Aid, Walgreens, or Target. They will accept the Winn Dixie dollars off catalina coupons.
 
They WILL carry the Publix Penny item every week. The customer MUST clip the coupon for it in the Wednesday newspaper to get the deal. The new Manager said “No coupon no deal”
 
They WILL NOT accept overrage.
 
Their BOGO’s ring up half price for each item, not true BOGO.
 
They WILL double coupons up to .50 (manfufacturer coupons only)
 
And, of course, they will give out rain checks for BOGO items out of stock.

A BIG thanks to Sybil at Thrifty Montgomery {coming soon} for this ESM exclusive sneak peek!

Also, check out Christie from Birmingham Bargain Mom’s Publix Grand Opening Events calendar link HERE. It has TONS of fun things going on in the store to celebrate the grand opening all month long!

Blockbuster Kiosk: FREE Movie Code

I found a great site last night while searching for Blockbuster Kiosk codes to rent a movie, it is call BlockbusterKiosk.com. It is user based and they submit codes to the site that are working for them to getr FREE rentals at the Blockbuster Express movie box.

The code that is working for a FREE movie this weekend is: GL14A

The nearest Blockbuster Express Kiosk is in Publix in Fairhope for me but you can check HERE to find one near you! Also, you can reserve the movies online like Redbox, so they are waiting for you when you get to the store. The good thing about Blockbuster is you can use the promo codes even when reserving them online, Redbix will not allow you to do that.

Fairhope Publix: Lowdown on Charcoal Deal

Shannon & I got a phone call today from the Fairhope Publix to clarify the charcoal deal and what coupons the will accept. Here is the post that Shannon created to help you guys out on “qualifiers” and what items you can buy using what coupons.

UPDATE:  I want to elaborate a little more on qualifiers. What is a qualifier? It is the item you must buy to get another item free/or dollar amount off of another product. While this can sometimes be a grey area of couponing the Fairhope Publix location is making it very clear.  For each WYB coupon you wish to use, you MUST have an additional qualifier.

So let’s say I want to use the FREE Glad product WYB Kingsford coupon and the $2/1 ribs WYB Kingsford coupon. I would need to purchase 2 bags of charcoal(qualifiers) to use those 2 coupons.  I also have a $2/1 Kingsford coupon.

My Plan:
Buy one bag of Kingsford ($6.99) and ribs.
Use $2/1 Kingsford ($4.99). 
Use $2 off ribs WYB Kingsford.

Do you plan to buy charcoal this week at Publix? Kingsford is on sale for $6.99 which is a good price–even better when you look at all the coupon possibilities!

Kingsford Charcoal, $6.99
Coupons available:
$3 off fresh meat WYB Kingsford (Summer Savings booklet)
$2/1 Pork Ribs WYB Kingsford coupon. zip 30306
3 FREE product coupons WYB Kingsford.
$2/1 Kingsford Competition Briquets (Home Depot Mailer) *Some locations will accept these. Our local stores will not.

The charcoal is the qualifier. Each WYB coupon above is tied to a qualifier.

Publix: Meet The Managers 5/20

This comes from my good friend Shannon at The Bargain Buggy. I am SO excited about this. I am personal friends with the managers at both Fairhope & Gulf Shores, they are all such great people and so nice to chat with. They love couponers and love to hear what we have to say!

Publix takes their customer service seriously. I guess I never really knew what GREAT customer service was until I shopped that store. Now I hold everyone to those high standards. (Not good for every store out there.)

As you can probably guess, I know a lot of the people at Publix from the produce department employees to upper management. They all seem to have a personal interest in the customers and making sure that your Publix experience is all that it is suppose to be–a PLEASURE. They truly WANT to know what you think of Publix. They WANT to hear your suggestions.

This Thursday night(4 p.m.-7 p.m.) Publix is inviting you to meet their managers. I encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity.  PLUS, they will be giving away some FREE product coupons(for good stuff).

Confirm times at your locations as each area may be different. Thursday night, 4 p.m.-7 p.m. is for the Publix stores in Fairhope, Gulf Shores and Orange Beach. I did confirm those locations.

Publix Ad Deals 4/28

Want more information about couponing at Publix? Visit the Publix Couponing 101 Page. Check out the ESM Coupon Help Page for assistance with the wording and the layout of the matchups.

Here are a few tips:

• Always grab a paper ad from the front of the store to have while you shop. This is to make sure you are grabbing the correct product (and weight of the product) to ensure your total will be correct.

• While your grabbing the ad, look for the Green Advantage & Yellow Advantage flyers at the front of the store by the ads for more GREAT savings. These are full of Publix and Manufacturer coupons. Use the links above to see exactly which coupons are in the most recent booklets.

• Ask your store manager the coupon policy. Every store is different because the store manager dictates their own policy for their individual store.

• Be sure to check out The Bargain Buggy’s updated list of $DOLLAR$ OFF COUPONS you can use to lower your final total. Don’t forget, the new policy only allows one dollar off coupon per visit at the Fairhope location. Be sure to check with your store to see if they accept these coupons. Learn how to use these coupons at the Publix Couponing 101 Page.
