I’ve noticed most bloggers this week are saying CVS is kinda low on the deals lately. But for a newbie, even this week was a huge thrill!
I tried a different CVS last night. Again, I noticed how uncrowded it was. After years of WalMart shopping, this is such a refreshing change! I think I did pretty well, although the cashier would only accept 1 of my $5/$15 coupons.
Here is what I came home with:
4 Colgate Total Advanced Toothpastes (coupons here and here)
2 Nivea Shave Gels (coupons here)
3 CVS Vitamin C’s 110 ct- FREE after ECBs!
2 more Johnson’s Buddies Soaps (coupons here)
2 LypSyl Lip Moisturizers- FREE after ECBs!
1 Lumene Body Activa Moisturizer (small blue tube)- FREE after ECBs!
1 Softsoap Spa Radiance Body Wash- deal for April, already working (coupon here)
The shelf price for these 15 items is $43.19, OUCH!!
I did 2 transactions, and spent a total of $2.75 OOP, and went home with $20.93 in ECBs for next time. Basically, they paid me $18.18 to take all this home. What a feeling! CVS, I will be back.
God is good!
I ran across your site on moneysavingmom. You did a great job! You don’t seem like a “newbie” at all.
Where did you find the Lumene Body Activa Moisturizer (small blue tube)? I’ve been looking all month for the small tubes and can’t find any.
Thanks for any help you can provide!
Wow! Awesome! Love, Mom
I also found your post from Money Saving Mom. What a purchase for a CVS newbie! That’s great! Have fun continuing with the ‘game’ and great deals.
Wow! I have not seen the Lumene or the vitamin c all month long! You lucky gal! I ran in last night and got some of the life fitness pain relif patches and a gallon of milk. I love ExtraCare Bucks! You are off to a great start! Keep up the good work!
I’m a newbie too. Looks like you did better than I did. But I love how much I’m saving!
I came across your blog from Money Savings Moms.
Looks like you did really well for being a newbie.
I am too. I’m getting the hang of it slowly. I’ve always clipped coupons but I’m enjoying seeing how everyone else does it.
Have a great weekend.
