100%CVS Savings

I went back to CVS today with 2 $1.00 internet coupons for Xtra and 2 $1ECBs.  They were priced at $1.99 each.  The cashier adjusted the second ECB to .98 so I paid just .21 for the tax!  (My CVS registers will not accept ECBs that exceed the pre-tax total.)

FREE Plus Moneymaker at CVS

I have already made my CVS run before church.  Before my coupons and ECBS, this came to just over $27.  After my ECBS and coupons, I wrote a check for $13.24.  I got back $19 in ECBS.  I just LOVE, LOVE, LOVE when I have FANTASTIC CVS runs.  That hasn't been happening a lot this year, so I was so excited to see these moneymakers.

CVS Deals

It has been many months since I have been able to snag any real deals at CVS.  Their pickings have just been slim.  Today, however, I managed to grab a few good deals.  I had $1.00 coupons for both the Wheat Thins and the Fig Newtons, so they were FREE.  The body washes produced $4.00 in ECB'S, so I paid $2.42 for these items:

(Cat was not included.)
****I went back later today and snagged another Wheat Thins and Fig Newtons with 2 more $1.00 coupons and paid $.02 for the two.)
