CVS Success

Great trip to CVS today! Starbucks frappuccino was on sale for $5, buy $15 worth of pepsi products (this counts) and get $5 ECBs. I had 3 $1/1 coupons, which made each pack about $2.33 after ECB. They also had cover girl make up on sale buy one get one 50% off, plus there was an $8/2 coupon in the paper this morning, making it about $5 for both of these powders. I also had some great coupons and ECBs to use. CVS put out a $4/$20 coupon, I had a $2 ECB that I got online for pledging not to throw away ECBs (CVS is doing a campaign for this right now), the coupon machine printed out a $1 ECB for me, and I had close to $10 ECBs, so we paid $2.06 out of pocket for this and walked out of the store with $5 ECB in hand. If you haven't tried CVS yet, you really should. It is a little more complicated than just regular couponing, takes some extra strategizing and some quick thinking sometimes, but it is totally worth it. According to my receipt today I have saved over $400 this year at CVS and I doubt I have spent even a quarter of that out of pocket so far.
