CVS $5 Scenario - Week of 3/21/10

If you haven't shopped at CVS yet, this is a great week to get started. Stop at the front counter and sign up for one an Extra Care Card, if you don't already have one.

You can easily do back to back transactions at CVS - the cashiers are very accommodating. Your ECB's print on your receipt, just rip them off and use them to pay for the next transaction.

Don't be discouraged if the store you visit runs out of stock, there are only four stores open so far in town. Ask for a raincheck - see more info HERE.

  1. I came across a Kraft Nabisco cookies (4-26 oz.) & milk MQ that should help if you aren't buying Kellogg's cereals. I found the MQ at the SnS on Gravois and it expires 6/30/10.

    B1 Milk @$2.49 + Oreos or Cakesters @$3.00 = $5.49 - 1.50 = $3.99

  3. I love CVS! Received an e-mail for free chocolate cookie dough bites or body wash. I'm stocked on body wash so I got the small box of chocolates which must have been on sale for $.99. The free coupon took off $1.99 so it was $1 MM. I also received $2 off $10 in baby products from the magic coupon machine. So I ended up spending only $5 something for two packs of pampers and my free chocolates. Yeah! I read on Full Cup that one type of CVS shampoo (looks like sauve - comes in diff. scents like Kiwi) is free after the $1 off coupon from the magic coupon machine this week.

  4. Hi Maureen - Woo Hoo! I keep wanting to pinch myself when I leave CVS. I must be dreaming it is such a pleasure to shop there.
