This afternoon I headed out for a tiny trip to my local CVS which is normally not a weekly stop for me. I was, however, compelled after looking through my Sunday circular as the deals were too easy to pass up.
Here's my haul:
When I came home and asked hubby how much he'd expect all this stuff to cost, he said around $45. But, you know I would never pay retail! Here's how it really went down . . .
My 1st trip:
1 – Lipton tea bags @ $2.50 ea, minus .40/$1 QP (coupon) = $2.10
3 – Ragu pasta sauce for $5, minus $1.25/3 QP = $3.75
3 – Skippy peanut butter for $5 = $53 – Stride gum @ $.99 ea., minus $1/3 QP = $1.97 + earned $.99 ECB (Extra Care Bucks)
Total – $12.82, plus earned $3.99 ECB to use on my next trip (below).
My 2nd trip:
4 – Diet coke 12-packs @ 4/$10 = $10
3 – Puffs tissue box @ .98 ea = $2.94
1 – Purex laundry detergent @ $1.98, minus $1 QP = $1
1 – Q tips 375 count @ $1.99, minus $.30/1 QP = $1.69
Total after using $3.99 ECBs (from 1st trip transaction – above) = $11.64
Total out-of-pocket for 19 items, pictured above = $24.46
And now, my husband will get peanut butter cookies! Have you gotten any great deals lately?
