When do Publix, Winn-Dixie BOGO deals start? Aldi savings? How to track the weekly ads
Are you searching for bargains in the aisles of your favorite supermarket?
If you are, it’s a good idea to know when meat, eggs, and veggies go on sale, and which supermarket near you has the best deals, especially as prices continue to rise. After all, if you go to the grocery store on the last day of the sale, all the BOGOS might be gone.
Some items may be hard to find because of supply chain issues.
Here’s a list to help you track the weekly ads of your favorite supermarkets in Florida (and also remember to check the Miami Herald e-edition and print edition for the store circulars):
Publix BOGO sales
Publix publishes its weekly ads on Thursdays, with the sales running through Wednesday, while supplies last. And if you’re a fan of BOGO deals (Buy one, get one free), Publix has at least 30 BOGO deals a week. Publix says it also updates its digital coupons periodically. Find the weekly ad at www.publix.com/savings.
TIP: Publix also accepts competitor coupons. Visit your store’s Customer Service desk and ask for the eligibility list. For more info on the Lakeland-based company’s coupon policy, check its website.

Winn-Dixie and Fresco y Más weekly ads
Winn-Dixie and Fresco y Más publish their weekly circulars every Wednesday morning. Find it online or in the app.
If you have a rewards account, you can collect points with your purchases. The reward program gives 1 point for every $2 you spend. Every 100 points give you $1 off groceries.
You also get access to the following:
▪ Every Wednesday, you can get points on a special item in the store.
▪ You can download digital coupons for additional savings
▪ Download the app to use the Mystery Bonus feature, a point multiplier coupon that lets you get bonus reward points on purchases.
▪ You can complete “personalized reward booster challenges” to rack up more points.
▪ Earn reward points with Winn-Dixie and Fresco y Más purchases made with your Shipt, Uber and/or Instacart account. Make sure you’re using the same phone number as the one you used for the rewards account.
Caveat: Points, including those obtained in-store, expire on the last day of the sixth month you obtained it. Ex: Points earned on Feb. 12 will expire on Aug. 31.
How to find specials at a nearby Sedano’s
Sedano’s weekly specials run from Wednesday to Tuesday. You can find Sedano’s weekly circular online.
TIP: If an item you want is sold out, speak with the manager about requesting a rain check.
Whole Foods, Amazon Prime perks
Whole Foods Market weekly sales usually run Wednesday to Tuesday. And if you’re an Amazon Prime member, you’ll get access to special discounts and will also be able to get an extra 10% off sale prices (except alcohol). But keep in mind that some sales might be in-store only. To check the sales at your store, visit wholefoodsmarket.com/sales-flyer.
TIP: If you have an Amazon Prime Rewards Visa and a Prime membership, you’ll also be able to get 5% back every time you shop at Whole Foods Market.

Aldi weekly ads
Aldi’s weekly sales and “Aldi Finds” — items that are sold for a limited time and are not found in its stores year round — run from Wednesday to Tuesday.
TIP: If you don’t want to visit Aldi’s website every week to see the ads, Aldi has a weekly newsletter you can sign up for. The newsletter includes weekly ads, Aldi Finds and seasonal products.
Presidente Supermarket weekly ads
Presidente Supermarkets, which has stores in South Florida and in the Orlando area, runs its weekly ads Wednesday to Tuesday. You can find Presidente Supermarket’s weekly promotions online.
Trader Joe’s
Trader Joe doesn’t do sales, discounts, “glitzy promotions or couponing wars.” It also doesn’t have any loyalty or membership cards. The company says this is because it already keeps its prices low and that it believes “every customer should have access to the best prices on the best products every day.”
This list will be updated.
