My Almost-Free CVS Trip {98% Savings}

Merchandise Value: $21.95
Out-of-Pocket Cost: $.46 plus tax
Savings: $21.49 (98%)

I was doing a happy dance when I scanned my card at the CVS magic coupon machine today. I had stopped by on Sunday just to scan my card (not shop) because I’d heard rumors that it was printing coupons for $1 off any toothpaste and $1 off any deodorant. I got both on Sunday! And I got both again today! Definitely happy dance-worthy. I put all those coupons to good use today.

What I Bought:
2 Speed Stick Deodorants – $2.50 each
2 Colgate Toothpastes – $2.99 each
1 RevitaLens – $8.99
2 Puffs Tissues – $.99 each

Coupons Used:
2 $1.00 off any deodorant CVS coupons
B1G1 Speed Stick or Lady Speed Stick, exp. 5/19/12 (SS 04/29/12) – Took off $3.99
2 $0.50/1 Colgate Toothpaste, exp. 5/19/12 (SS 04/29/12)**
2 $1.00 off any toothpaste CVS coupons
2 $0.25 off Puffs Facial Tissue, exp. 5/31/12 (P&G 04/29/12)
$2/1 Revitalens Ocutec Multi-Purpose Disinfecting Solution, exp. 6/4/12 (SS 04/29/12)
$10 ECBs from last week

Out-of-Pocket Cost: $.46 plus tax
ECBs Earned: $7.98 ($4.98 Colgate, $3.00 – RevitaLens)

** I’ve seen some people posting the $1/1 Colgate coupon from 4/15, but it’s not good for the types of Colgate listed in the ad.
