CVS Deals - Week of 3/8


The CVS deals seem to be kind of lacking lately. I've had the same $10 ECBs in my purse for about 3 weeks. I think I'll head over to CVS tomorrow to see if I can spend them to get a few needed items. Here's my plan:

Transaction #1:
2 Campbell's Chunky Soups - $3.19 each
2 Garnier Hair Colors - 2 for $10
2 Colgate Toothbrushes - $1.99 each

- $3.19 Campbell's buy 1 - get 1 sale this week
- $2.00 Garnier haircolor coupon from recent newspaper insert
- $2.00 Garnier haircolor coupon from recent newspaper insert
- $1.99 Colgate toothbrush buy 1 - get 1 sale this week
- $0.75 Colgate toothbrush from recent newspaper insert
- $0.75 Colgate toothbrush from recent newspaper insert
- $0.75 Colgate toothbrush from recent newspaper insert
- $0.75 Colgate toothbrush from recent newspaper insert
- $10.00 ECBs from THREE weeks ago!

Merchandise Total: $20.36
Sales/Coupons/ECBs: - $20.19
Total OOP: $0.17
ECBs Earned: $5 (Garnier)

I don't like to lose ECBs on any given week, but I am out of hair color, and our toothbrush supply is running low. I can also take the soup to work for lunch this week, saving me money on packing or eating out. So I think I'm still coming out ahead!


Transaction #2:
3 boxes of Fiber One Bars $10.00

- $1.35 printable Fiber One coupon (Chocolate Mocha flavor only) (HERE)
- $1.35 printable Fiber One coupon (Chocolate Mocha flavor only)
- $0.60 printable Fiber One coupon (any flavor) (HERE or HERE or HERE)
- $5.00 ECBs from Transaction #1

Merchandise Total: $10
Coupon Savings: - $8.30
Total OOP: $1.70
ECBs earned $5.00

If they don't have the Chocolate Mocha flavor, I'm going to use more 60 cent off any flavor coupons. The OOP will be higher, but my husband loves these Fiber One Bars! So, even paying $3.20 OOP for 3 boxes isn't too bad.
