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 only got one item today although I was very tempted to get some more. My item today was totally FREE because I used the same ECBs as what I got back and did not pay tax. The really great thing was that I did not buy ANY more toothpaste even though I had a coupon that would make the toothpaste totally FREE!!!

Transaction 1

Item: CoverGirl Wetslicks lip gloss

Price: $5.99

CVS Extra Care Bucks earned: $5.99
