My CVS was out of a lot of these items, but said they would get a truck in tomorrow. You may want to call first to see if the items are in stock.

This sale ends Tuesday, July 13.

Remember, even if you don’t need the school supplies, you can still use them to help someone in need. You can donate these to a family in financial need or use them to fill up your shoeboxes for Samaritan’s Purse.

First transaction:
3 CVS nighttime (generic Nyquil), regular price $5.29, clearance price $1.32
I stockpiled these for the winter season while they were at a rock bottom price. This is using the buy ahead principle to avoid paying full price later.

Second transaction:
CVS panty shields, $.89, receive $.89 Extra Care Bucks (ECBs) back (limit 1)
Pantene shampoo, reg $6.29, $4.99 sale, receive $2 ECBs, used $1 coupon
3 pencil sharpeners, $.99 each, receive $.99 ECBs each (limit 3)
At the end of this transaction, I received the $.89 ECBS for the panty shields, the $2.97 ECBs for the pencil sharpeners, the $2 ECBs for the Pantene, and it also printed a few coupons – $5 off a $25 purchase, $2 off Huggies wipes, and an additional $1.50 CVS coupon or ECB.

Transaction 3:
2 six inch topiaries (for my girl’s Barbie house), reg $1.99, clearance price $.19 each
Organix shampoo, reg $6.99, sale $4.99 – I bought this because there was a rebate form on the bottle to try it for free.
Bayer heart aspirin, reg $6.99, clearance $3.50, $1.50 coupon on box
2 Dove hair mousse, reg $4.99 each, on sale buy 1 get 1 free, used $1 coupon
Pampers Easy Ups, reg $11.99, sale $8.99, used $1 coupon
2 Pringles canister, reg $2.79 each, sale $1.50 each, used $1 coupon
Huggies wipes $3.49, used $2 CVS coupon and $.75 manufacturer’s coupon
On this transaction, I had $5.25 in manufacturer’s coupons and $14.36 in ECBs and CVS coupons.

If my calculations are correct, the regular price for all of these items would have been $94.73. My out of pocket (OOP) expense was $21.54 plus I will send off immediately for the $4.99 rebate.  This is a savings of over 80%!

I spent some time this week clipping and organizing my coupons into my coupon binder.  The binder is very helpful in situations (such as today) when you are shopping and happen to find some items on sale or clearance.

These are my CVS bargains for this week.  Let me know if you have any questions or if I did not explain something clearly. 

Happy saving!

I stopped by earlier this week and picked up about 12 cans or so,  but I’m thinking of getting a few more.  Stockpiling foods when they’re at their lowest prices can really save a lot of money.

What foods are you stockpiling this week?

Post from: Thrifty Mommy

I bet there are some of you out there that love shopping at CVS and why not, after all don’t you love buying stuff for nothing? Here are a few weekly deals that give you back Extra Care Bucks (ECBs).

Weekly Deals:

-  $2.99  Fructis Shampoo/conditioner/styler  ECB$2
Coupon:  $1 off P&G 3/15 or $1 styling

-  $8.99 Intuition Plus Razor (schick) ECB$4
Coupon: $4 off from SmartSource 3/22

-  2/$5 Speedstick  ECB$3
Coupon: .75/2

-  $1.99  Crest/Oral-B ECB$1
Coupons: Crest 4.2oz .75 off, oral B indicator $1 /2, BOGO Zooth toothbrush

-  $5.99  Aussie/Pantene/Herbal Essence/Head & Shoulders 23.7oz  ECB$1
Coupon: $2 off Aussie shampoo from P&G 3/15, Pantene 2/$3 off from P&G 4/5

Other CVS Deals:
-  $14.99  Bayer Breeze2 (Free after mail-in rebate)
-  $1 Band-aids
Coupon: $1 off

Here are what a few people are saying, the Crest/Oral B deal does work if you still have one of those BOGO Coupons with Zooth Toothbrushes. These are the kids toothbrushes and if you are anything like me you have a ton of adult toothbrushes stockpiled but none of the kids.

I also grabbed Veet for $2.40 since they were $4.40 on clearance and I had a coupon from the RIB Magazine, the Essence of Beauty sponges were buy one get one half off (not sure if they still are) and the Blade deodorant sprays were $1.99 but with the $1 off from RIB made it cheaper. As you can see I love to shop for bargains and can’t wait to go back next week. If you haven’t yet the Accu-Check Monitor cost $9.99 and gives you back $9.99 ECBs.

Have a great time shopping. Don’t forget to come back here and list what you got.
