CVSing on Saturday: The Best of Both Weeks

June 12, 2010

There were only a couple of deals that I was really interested in at CVS during the upcoming week. But I had one of their $4 off $20 purchase coupons burning a hole in my pocket! Rather than stopping by CVS after church tomorrow, Emma and I stopped this evening. By doing this, I was able to take advantage of the current week’s sales and the sales that begin tomorrow. Here’s what we got:

Starting ECBs: $4.00 (I used the rest on Emma’s cold meds earlier this week.)
Merchandise Value: $20.39
Out-of-Pocket Cost: $3.40 plus tax (Used $1.14 on a gift card)
Savings: $16.99 (83%)
Ending ECBs: $4.00

What I Bought:
2 Lucky Charms & 1 Fiber One Bars – $10.00
3 M&Ms – $7.50
2 Sobe Lifewater – $2.00
1 Butterfinger – $.89

Coupons Used:
– $4.00 off $20.00 purchase coupon I received via email
– 2 $.55 off Lucky Charms printable coupons
– $.50 off Fiber One printable coupon
– $1.00 Buy 1 – Get 1 FREE Sobe printable coupon
– $.89 FREE Butterfinger coupon received via Facebook (no longer available)
– $2.50 Buy 2 – Get 1 FREE M&Ms coupon from ???? (Can’t seem to find the location!)
– $3.00 off 2 M&Ms CVS coupon from in-store printing machine

Out-of-Pocket Cost: $3.40 (Really only $2.26 – The rest was a gift card.)
Savings: $16.99 (83%)
ECBs Earned: $4.00 (General Mills)

I noticed on my receipt that I am able to do the General Mills deal again, so I may stop back and roll my $4 ECBs. We LOVE Fiber One bars, and this sale makes them a great deal!

    Mannnn those M&M’s look really good right now. And lucky you! My CVS coupon machine broke down! So I missed out on coupon’s yesterday :(.

      I have to confess that I opened one of the bags of peanut M&Ms. Will have to ration them so that I don’t eat the whole bag!
