CVS Shopping
I was excited to receive our Free Friday paper again this week. This week was lucky since it had 3 Smart Source inserts. However, the paper doesn’t always include all the ads. There was no CVS add in the paper for me to plan my Sunday shopping trip. So I went to Simply CVS for the weekly sales flyer. She always has it posted early.
There wasn’t a lot I wanted at CVS this week. I went there without a plan in mind and I brought extra coupons to see what I could work out. I was excited I had $6.99 in ECB’s to spend from last week. Shopping was more difficult, since they had not put up the sales tags yet. I had to take the sales flyer with me and go to the scanner to see if some of the items qualified.
Here are my results:
Transaction #1:
(1) Colgate Toothbrush $2.99 – 1 Q $1.00 off SS(03/27/11)

I should have paid $1.99 more, but the cashier rang up one of the Pledge free coupons wrong as $4.99. So I ended up getting money off my paper. I didn’t realize this until I got home. All together I spent $9.30 for $36.28 worth of items. I went back for transactions 3-5, since I had my coupons from my paper.

Great Job Kristin! It is such a rush the first time isn't it. You will get better and better. Best of luck. Let me know how you do next week!
ReplyDeleteGreat job. I often buy my milk at CVS too! :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks Ruth. I did get the idea from LWSL on one of your posts. The milk at CVS has coupons for $1.00 off in Smart Source. I am excited.
