    Just wondering if your Allegra coupon actually worked at CVS. I notice the coupon was for 30 tablets and the sale was for (I think) 5??? I was going to use it and thought it wouldn’t be accepted.

    I bought the Dawn diswashing liquid on sale for 97cents… 2 bottles. Had 1 coupon for $1.00 off and another for 25 cens off… total price for 2 bottles: 85 cents!!!
