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

The most cost effective way to shop at CVS is to use ECB towards your purchase of  products that trigger more ECBs.  If you are following my CVS $5 Scenarios, you have a $6 ECB to start your shopping with.

Remember, if CVS is out of stock on an item, ask for a raincheck. You still get ECBs with a raincheck.

Take a look more CVS deals HERE.

(2) Quaker Instant Oatmeal @ $2.50 each = $5.00

  4. Yesterday, the magic coupon machine printed $.99 off candy corn coupon, so I was able to purchase candy corn for a penny.

  5. Thanks for your post. I was able to do Transaction #1. I did not see the deal for AZO so I stopped with the ECB totaling $8.98 and spend only $1.65 with tax. I did not have two $1.00 coupons for colgate. I had $1.00 off and a $0.75 off. Still, I great deal for all of it. Thanks again. I also received the coupon for $0.99 off candy corn but did not realize it was on sale. Back for that as my 2 year old son likes candy corn.

  6. Hi Anonymous - Great job!

    I thought the AZO was hard to find at the store I shop. It was close to the feminine product and not the OTC medicines.
