CVS-ing Week 4

I took two trips to CVS this week, although I did two transactions on Sunday. I did this because on the first transaction I earned Extra Bucks that I wanted to use on the second transaction, instead of paying cash out of pocket. I did spend a little more this week than normal, but there were some good deals on things we regularly use. Looking back, I should have broken Monday into two transactions too to save some money out of pocket but I had Jack with me, and he was NOT in the mood for shopping so I was distracted.

 

Sunday Transaction 1:

1 NasoGel gel spray $7.99- $2 coupon

4 Reeses Whipps 2 for $1- $1 off 2 coupon (these were FREE!)

2 Excedrine Gel Tabs (24 pack) $1.99 each- two $1 coupons

1/2 gallon Belfonte Skim Milk  $2.19

Original total: $10.70

After coupons and $9.98 in Extra Bucks I spent .72

I earned $7.99 in Extra Bucks to add to my stash

Sunday Transaction 2:

3 Boxs of Soy Joy Strawberry Bars $6 each- two $1 coupons

Original total: $18.46

After coupons and $16.00 in Extra Bucks I spent .46

I earned $18 in Extra Bucks to add to my stash

2 Pepsi product 12 packs $3 each- two $1 coupons

2 bags of Tostitos 2 for $6

4 St. Ives 18 oz lotions $2.99- four $2 coupons

1 Excedrine Migrane 24 pack $1.99- $1 coupon- $1 CVS coupon (that printed from the machine when I got there... score!)

1 CVS 24 Allergy Relief $3.79

1 Covergirl Mascara 4.99- $1 coupon

2 Covergirl Eyeshadows $3.39 each- $2.50 off of 2 coupon

*plus I had a $10 off $50 purchase coupon that printed the week before

Original total: 55.49

After coupons and $21.00 in Extra Bucks I spent $7.49

I earned $16.79 Extra Bucks for next week brining my total for next week to $22 Extra Bucks
