If you’re like us, you love a deal. And Publix has plenty of them! Here are a few inside tips to help you make the most of your grocery shopping dollars.

Download the App

First, download the Publix app. Through this and Club Publix (a free loyalty program), you can view weekly ads, clip coupons, add to your shopping list, pay for your order, and receive receipts.

These will be automatically credited to your account when you pay through the app. Also, benefit from special Club Publix discounts based on your interests and order history.

Check the Weekly Ad Specials

Second, to make shopping even easier and more budget-friendly, check out the weekly ad specials. See a plant-based frozen pizza on sale that you would like to try? Easily add it to your shopping list by clicking the “+” icon beside the item. The app will also conveniently list the aisle of the food, so there’s no more hunting throughout the store to find what you’re looking for. How much easier could savings get? The app shows you the weekly sales selection, organizes your choices for you, and lets you know where the items are located. That’s what we call service!

Shop the BOGOs

But the best budget-friendly tip we have for shopping vegan at Publix has to be to shop the BOGOs. This is the signature savings piece of this leading grocery chain. BOGOs change weekly and include everything from pasta and peanut butter to bread and green beans. Past BOGO deals include Dave’s Killer Bread Organic Bagels, Back to Nature nuts, and Mush Overnight Oats, Gardein Plant-Based Ground Be’f, and Lenny & Larry’s Cookies.

Want to throw it way back? They also stock Boca products! And, of course, this is in addition to the plethora of already vegan items like frozen fruit, veggies, rice, and others.
