CVS: Spent $0.26 and Got $7 ECB’s Back!

 

CVS Deals

CVS has a few good deals this week, however, I didn’t get to go to the store until the end of the week.  I was happy to stock up on some items including toothpaste and diapers this week while utilizing a few of my coupons.   I was able to get a couple of good clearance items this week too.  For the items I was not able to pick up because they were out of stock I got rain checks.  Today I was able to get the items for $0.25 plus tax ($0.01) making my out of pocket cost $0.26 and received $7 ECB’s to use on my next CVS purchase.  Here is what I purchased this week.

  • 1 –  Wet & Wild Craze Purple Glitter Nail Polish for $0.99 (on clearance)
  • 1 – Huggies Supreme Jumbo Pack of Diapers for $8.99
  • 2 – Colgate Max Fresh Toothpastes for $2.79 each (total $5.58
  • 1 – Clear Plastic Wrap 100 SF for $1.00
  • 1 – Premium Jordan Almonds for $0.74
  • 1 –  CVS Chest Congestion Medicine for $1.95

Here are the coupons I used on the items.

  • Used $3.00 Huggies Manufacturer Coupon
  • Used $3.00 CVS Kiosk Coupon
  • Used $13.00 ECB coupons from prior purchases

I received $7.00 ECB’s back today:

  • $1.00 ECB’s for Green Tag Reward (every 4th visit you use your Green Tag you get a $1 ECB)
  • $4.00 ECB’s for Colgate Products ($2 Each)
  • $2.00 ECB’s for Huggies Products

This week I was able to save over $32 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.
