I've been trying to work out some of these CVS deals for weeks (actually years... usually I quit for a while and start again). Thanks for giving details :).

I'm not sure how I found your blog, but I noticed on one of your posts that you mentioned East Richland Christian School... that sounds like a school that's close to my hometown in Bellaire, OH. If that's the same school, it's a small world :).

I'll be checking back for more of your great deals! Thanks!

It truly is a small world! I live in Belmont, and my dad grew up in Bellaire. In fact, my grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins all live there.

If you're stuck on the CVS deals, just let me know. I can help you walk through them to get you started. You also have a Rite Aid in town, and they have some great deals too! Have you tried them?

Thanks so much for letting me know that you're local! How fun!!

Not exactly local... my husband and I moved to Akron when we got married, but both of our families still live in/near Bellaire! I don't think I've ever found a blog from someone back home, so I'm really excited!

I'm heading to CVS today. I have a $25 g/c from a prescription transfer, so I'm off to a good start.
