CVS freebies for today

Three weeks later, and there are finally some CVS deals worth blogging about! Thank goodness my CVS takes expired ECBs...Otherwise, I would have been in a tough spot with deals being so scarce.

Here's how things went today:

Bought:
  • Playtex Gentle Glide, $3.99, get $3 ECB
  • 2 x Band-aids, $2.99, get $2 ECB (limit 2)
  • Colgate Total Advanced, $2.99, get $2 ECB
  • Revlon nail color, $3.99, get $3 ECB
  • Clearasil daily cleanser, $3.99, get $3.99 ECB (FREE!)

Subtotal = $20.94

Coupons used:

  • $4 off $20 purchase CVS Q (from scanner machine)
  • $1 Playtex Mfr. Q (came with a sample in the mail)
  • 2 x $1 Band-aid Mfr. Q (from inserts)
  • $1 Colgate Mfr. Q (from insert)
  • $1 Revlon Mfr. Q (from insert)
  • $1 Clearasil Mfr. Q (from insert)

Total after coupons = $0.46. Tax was $0.60. I put the total of $1.06 on a CVS gift card, and then got back $15.99 in ECBs. That's a profit of $4.45 for today!

For those who may not know, it's easy to find which Sunday insert a particular coupon came in by searching the database here: http://www.hotcouponworld.com/forums/coupon.php. Looking for the Colgate coupon? Search for "Colgate Total" and see what comes up. Even printable coupons are added to the database regularly, so always check for coupons before making your CVS or Kroger trips!
