I did fairly well at the CVS this week. I bought:
1 Garnier Fructis Hair Gel
2 bottles of Palmolive Dish Detergent
4 Reese's Whipp Candy Bars
1 Simply Asia dry soup
2 bars of Johnson's Buddies Soap
4 Rubbermaid Take Along 2 Packs
3 Colgate Toothbrushes
2 tubes of Colgate Toothpaste
1 box of Excedrin Sinus
1 tube of Neosporin Lip Treatment
With store sales, manufacturer's coupons, CVS coupons, and ECBs I paid a whopping $0.38 out of pocket and got $16 in ECBs back to spend on my next trip. Not too shabby.
The only thing that wasn't a great deal was the Neosporin Lip Treatment that I needed for my son's desperately chapped lips. And of course I realized when I got home that I had two additional $1.50 CVS coupons for the toothpaste that I didn't use. Oh, well! It no longer ruins my day. (I guess the fact that it did once is pretty sad.) Also Money Saving Mom pointed me to a free bag offer from Colgate to top it all off.
So far this coupon shopping is making my husband very happy!

Very nice! It must have been a CVS day yesterday across the country.
You almost (the operative word...almost)have me convinced to try your wacky world of discounts.
What are ECB's? I jut saw that we have a CVS in Crystal Lake. I never knew where one was. Do you get a flyer for the store sales?

ECBs are Extra Care Bucks.
If you go to www.moneysavingmom.com, there is a button on the sidebar on the right called CVS 101. Crystal has all the skinny on CVS shopping.
