I hope not, because we seem to be amassing more than we can use in YEARS!(And that's after giving Mom and Dad several tubes. The deal: They supply the Sunday coupons, I supply the toothpaste. Win/win!)
Tonight I HAD to make a CVS run, because I had a very valuable coupon that expired today: $3 off Excedrin Express Gels. Know why it was so valuable? Because the Express Gels are on sale this week for $1.99! To sweeten the deal even more, I had a manufacturer's coupon for another $2 off! So, today only, I could buy some Excedrin and make $3. Too good to pass up.
I had to buy a "filler" item, otherwise my total would have been negative, so I grabbed a bag of pecans, which I can use for holiday baking. The transaction went as follows:
- Excedrin Express Gels, $1.99, used $3 CVS coupon and $2 Mfr. coupon
- Colgate Max Fresh toothpaste, $2.99, get $2 ECBs back, used $1 Mfr. coupon
- Pecan Halves, on sale for $3.50
I paid with $2.29 ECBs, put the remaining $0.46 on my new gift card (thanks, Pharmacy!), and walked out of there with another $2 in ECBs. That means I spent a whopping $0.75 on a bag of pecans. Sweet!
Another successful CVS run.
