CVS: Spent $2 and Got $13 ECB’s Back!

CVS has a handful of good deals this week.  I was happy to stock up on some items including laundry soap and body wash this week while utilizing a few of my coupons.   Today I was able to get the items for $1.95 plus tax ($0.13) making my out of pocket cost $2.08 and received $13.99 ECB’s to use on my next CVS purchase.  Here is what I purchased this week.

  • 2 –  Soft Soap Body Wash Raspberry Sorbet & Almond Blossom (18 oz ) for $3.50 EACH
  • 1 –  Purex HE Laundry Soap for $1.98
  • 1 – Trident Layer Strawberry Citrus Gum (14 piece) for $0.99
  • 1 – Revlon Top Speed Nail Polish (Color – Vintage) for $4.99
  • 1 – Revlon Top Speed Nail Polish (Color – Fire) for $4.99

Here are the coupons I used on the items.

  • Used $2.00 Revlon Manufacturer Coupon
  • Used $2.00 Revlon Manufacturer Coupon
  • Used $1.00 Purex Manufacturer Coupon
  • Used $13.00 ECB coupons from prior purchases

I received $13.99 ECB’s back today:

  • $8.00 ECB’s for Revlon Products ($4 each Polish)
  • $5.00 ECB’s for Soft Soap Products
  • $0.99 ECB’s for Trident Products

This week I was able to save over $26 at CVS by purchasing these items and using coupons.

When you shop the CVS sales regularly and have ECB’s that you can roll over toward future purchases the bonus ECB’s start adding up (Green Bag Tags and Beauty Club).  As you can see from my shopping trip today you don’t have to purchase a lot to save money when shopping at CVS.  Plus you can use the additional ECB’s you receive towards your next purchase.  You can pick and chose what is best for your family.

I would love to hear your CVS shopping story for this week!  For those of you who shop regularly at CVS please share how you were able to save this week!  Although the weekly ad sales are similar every family and situation is different so you may have found items better suited to your household.  In your comment please feel free to share a link to your blog article showing us how you were able to save shopping at CVS.
