CVS 05/15/10

I waited until Saturday to get my CVS stuff again this week and once again, all the tags were set for the sales starting on Sunday. Thankfully, I brought my ad with me this time. It irritates me when the stores do that but I guess they need to get a jump on the weekly sales.

I didn't do as good as some people do. I need to work on getting my stuff together sooner in the week so that I can try to spend less money out of pocket but for now I am happy to get back ECBs and get some free stuff.

2 Pantene shampoos 2/6.97
2 Bayer aspirin 1.00/each
2 Right Guard deoderant 2.49/each
2 Crest Prohealth toothpaste 3.50/each
1 Kotex U pads 4.99
1 Huggies diapers 8.49
1 Nivea lip balm 2.99
3 Nivea body wash 5.99/each

Used 17.75 in coupons and 17.00 in ECBs and about 20.00 out of pocket.
I got back 25.99 in ECBs.

The Bayer were free because I had $1 coupons.
The Kotex were 4.99 with 4.99ECBs plus I had a coupon so basically I got paid to buy them.
Same with the toothpaste--3.50/each get 3.50 back in ECBs and I had coupons.
And also the deoderant: 2.49 each; I used a $3 off when you buy 2 coupon and got 2.00ECBs back on each one. Again, better than free.

I do miss when CVS would have deals that you could do 5 times because then I could really stock up. Now most of the deals are limit 1 or 2.
