My Weekly Savings | Target and CVS ~ Spent $44.18, Saved $96.87

I had an hour to myself on Friday, without any kids, so I quickly headed over to Target to take advantage of some of last week’s great deals.

1 Meow Mix Pate-Topper Cat Food – $.52, Used a FREE Coupon from the mail = FREE

Paid with $5 Target gift card from a previous deal, plus I used my Target Red Debit Card, which saved another 5%.

I paid $33.18 + tax out of pocket.

Total saved = $60.50

This morning, I popped over to CVS for a very quick TP run. I’ve been waiting (and waiting) for a good deal and finally decided to just take advantage of the P&G offer from CVS this week.

I bought three packages of 16-ct Charmin Extra Soft double rolls for $9.99 each (reg. $15.79), which were included in the Spend $30 on Select P&G Products, Get $10 ECBs Deal. (Note that the ECBs print out if you are within a few pennies of the total).

I had a $5/$30 CVS coupon, three $.25/1 Charmin coupons and $13.75 in about-to-expire ECBs.

I paid $11 plus tax out of pocket, and I got back $10 in ECBs for next time.

Total Saved = $36.37

I’m going to challenge myself to spend no more than $50 for the rest of the week (until Friday), so I can bring this week in at under $100. A few pennies saved this month makes for more fun on vacation next month!
