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.
