The deals were great at CVS this week, so I decided to head out on Sunday afternoon to pick up what I could get. Of course, this isn’t everything we will buy this week (for example, we made a produce run to Aldi today), but this was a coupon-heavy trip, so I wanted to share.
Dollar Tree
There were so many great coupons in yesterday’s paper that I decided to hit up the Dollar Tree and pick up two extra copies of the paper. While I was there, I also checked their bread cart, since they usually have a few kosher offerings for just $1. I manged to grab four loaves of Bimba bread, which will go straight to my freezer for school lunches.
Subtotal = $6 + tax
CVS
Then I headed over to CVS to pick up all the amazing freebies this week.
(8) Skintimate/Schick Hydro shaving gels, (6) SpeedStick deodorant, (2) Tom’s of Maine natural toothpaste (even without coupons, $.99 after ECBs is a great price!), (2) 50-count Advil caplets, (1) 24-count Advil Junior tablets, (2) bags of pretzel M&Ms.
Paid: $19.60 out of pocket + $10 in CVS Cash
Earned: $20 in ECBs + will submit for $10 Pfizer rebate and $5 SpeedStick rebate
Subtotal = $5.40 Money-Maker!
Combining the two trips, it’s like I paid $.60 for everything in the picture! Pretty awesome, huh?
Anyone else make a quick run to the drug stores? Maybe you hit up Target or your local grocery store? Share your savings in the comments section! I can’t wait to hear!
I’m going to CVS tomorrow. Today I stopped at Walgreens and got the money-maker Blink drops and some Emerald cocoa roast almonds – yum! There was a coupon in this week’s paper for $1/1, IVC $1/2, and they were on sale for 2/$5 –> $1.50 each.
I went to CVS today and bought two Skintimates, but the coupons didn’t print…can I go back get them, or just return the items? There was a shelf tag advertising the $4 back.
If it was tagged, then yes, you should have gotten your ECBs. I have heard that CVS is changing the limit to 1 – so it’s possible you will only get the ECB for the 1st of the shaving gels. In which case, yes, you can return the 2nd one!
i’ve read that the amazing shaving cream deal is now over. its gonna be $4ECB on the schick hydro razor only, limit 1. 🙁
The CVS shaving cream was available for basically just tax in my area (unadvertised), so I stopped by and got 12. My kids love shaving cream baths, and they will be thrilled!
I mean that I got all for for 3.99 + 4ECB each, so basically free. No limit up until tonight, at least.
