CVS Deals - Week of 8/10


I forgot to take pictures of everything before I put it all away today... OOPS! Here are the scenarios that I have for you....

WARNING: If you're new to CVSing, check out Money Saving Mom's CVS 101 before you read below.

Transaction #1

1 Lamisilk hydrating lotion for $8.29 (use $3 coupon from recent Sunday newspaper insert)

1 Alavert for $5.99 (use $4 printable coupon found here) (Thanks to Money Saving Mom for this coupon link!) **None of us use Alavert, but we can donate it to our local Health Rite organization. They will give the meds to people who need them but can't afford them.

Use $2 off any $10 purchase coupon found here.

I also had $5 in ECBs from last week.

Total $0.28 plus tax

Earned $3 in ECBs (Alavert)



Transaction #2

1 Lamisilk hydrating lotion for $8.29 (use $3 coupon from recent Sunday newspaper insert)

1 CVS handsoap (use $2 off CVS brand skincare coupon here)

Use $2 off any $10 puchase coupon

Use $3 ECBs from previous transaction

Total cost $0.29 plus tax

Earned $10 in ECBs (Lamasilk)



Transaction #3

1 CVS Kids Sunscreen (HUGE bottle - 60% more free!) for $5.99 (Use $2 off CVS brand skincare coupon)

2 boxes of Cheerios for $5 (Use 2 $1 printable coupons found here)

2 boxes of FiberOne bars for $5 (Use 2 $0.60 printable coupons found here)

1 Skin Effects facial scrub for $6.99 (Use $2 off Skin Effect coupon from CVS beauty handbook here)

Use $4 off any $20 purchase coupon (This was emailed to me.)

Use $10 ECBs from previous transaction

Total cost $1.78 plus tax

Earned $5 ECBs



I'm thinking about going back later in the week to do the battery deal. Here's what I have planned for that trip:

Transaction #1

6 packs of Energizer batteries $2.99 each (Use 6 $1 coupons found here - click the savings link on the right side of the screeen. This requires you to create an account, and you may need to print from multiple computers.)

1 Clorox Wipes for $2.50

Use $4 off $20 purchase (printed on my receipt)

Use $5 ECBs from previous transcaction

Total cost $5.69 plus tax

Earn $5 ECBs



Transaction #2

Huggies Pull-Ups for $8.99 (use $2 coupon from previous Sunday insert)

CVS Handsoap $1.99 (use $2 skincare coupon)

Use $2 off any $10 purchase coupon

Use $5 ECBs from previous purchase

Total cost -$0.01 (I'll find something small to make this a positive number.)

I won't earn any ECBs on this one, but it's a great price for pull-ups!!

Thanks so much for sharing the deals! I wanted to do the battery deal as well, but couldn't find any q's - thanks for linking! :)

Toni - I wanted to get 6 packs of batteries. The coupon printer will allow you to print 2 from each computer. (Use the little arrow next to the back button.) I used 3 different machines, and it worked beautifully!
