CVS Trip 10/10/10

My favorite cashier was at CVS this morning!  I always love when he is working, it just makes my trip so much more fun!  He jokingly told me that I was hereby banned from CVS for not spending enough money there.  Then we had a ten minute conversation about tattoos as he showed me the design for the new one he is about to get.  When I got home I told my husband that all drug addicts who want to kick their habit needed to learn how to coupon.  It's the same kind of high! Here's what I did today:

Transaction #1:
Bought:
1 Newspaper:  $1.00
2 Colgate Total Toothpastes:  $5.98
1 bag of Brach's candy corn:  $0.99
1 bag of Peanut M & M's:  $0.50
Used:
2 $1.00/1 Colgate Total toothpastes from 10/10/10 SS
1 $0.99/1 Brach's candy corn CVS coupon printed from the red machine
$6.00 ECB (from last week)
Total Spent:  $0.17 (my subtotal before tax was -$0.52)
Total Saved:  $11.53
Got Back:  $6.98 ECB ($1.00 for the Green Bag Tag and $5.98 for the Colgate)

Transaction #2:
Bought:
2 packs of Charmin Toilet Paper (16 double rolls):  $19.98
1 pack of Bounty Paper Towels (8 count):  $6.99
Used:
2 $0.25/1 Charmin product from the 9/26/10 P & G x 10/31/10
1 $0.25/1 Bounty product from the 9/26/10 P & G x 10/31/10
$4.00/$20.00 CVS email coupon
$19.97 ECB ($6.98 from transaction #1 and $12.99 from last week)
Total Spent:  $4.28 (including tax, which was about half of my total)
Total Saved:  $37.32
Got Back:  $10.00 ECB

I was really excited about today!  I rarely find good deals on paper products!  Plus it was really good timing.  I need to stock up again!

  1. Great trip. There are those nagging things that are hard to find good deals on and I just hate to buy them! Thanks for linking up your CVS shopping trip at Simply CVS.
