Today I paid $1.09 for $8.99 worth of items. I am trying to see how much free stuff I can get from CVS while spending the least amount of money.
I did not go to CVS last week because I really was not impressed with the selection. I only went this week because I wanted to get that mascara AND I had a set of ECBs that were going to expire this week.

Join me next time as I look for more ways to save money as I visit CVS.
I love my CVS extra care card. I don’t generally use the coupons (same with my grocery store card), but I am able to take advantage of immediate discounts, especially on my meds which were recently made OTC and now cost me MORE. Grrr

I normally get great bargains at CVS, as well as home content sales…
