Quick run for milk turned into a savings trip. :)

I ran in to Publix to grab some milk and eggs... and came out with this. :)
I used coupons for the magnum ice cream bars (man. and a store coupon per box), two man. coupons for the Yoplait smoothie mixes (man. coupons). Everything else I bought was strictly BOGO deals (besides the milk, eggs, deli meat---it was on sale though, and yogurt).
My son (18 months old) drinks chocolate milk, so this Hershey's syrup was a GREAT deal for us.
My total today before savings was $61.45
With coupons and BOGO savings, I paid $34.77!
