Welcome to How I Save Money. I am on a quest to see how much stuff I can get from CVS without spending any extra money out of my pocket.

I needed some Neosporin because mine ran out and I cut a patch of skin on my neck (different story!!!). I only had a $10.00 ECB coupon so I needed to get something else to make up the difference so I would not lose all the ECBs.

I love colored inks so I decided to get a pack of sparkly colored pens that I can use at work and at home.
