CVSing Rocks!


Okay, so it's been a few weeks since I have posted. Busy time for the Devine's, but I have to say I've been hard at work figuring out this couponing thing. A couple weeks ago I finally got brave enough to start taking advantage of the CVS Extra Care Bucks program. While it seemed intimidating at first, it has definitely paid off and I am a loyal CVS customer now. I have also continued to get some awesome grocery store deals since my last post.

Today, I reviewed the CVS weekly deals and game plan for this week on southernsavers.com (my absolute favorite site for couponing - to date : ) . Southernsavers.com breaks down the CVS plan and makes it easy to grasp. They also detail out the deals and give you a game plan scenerio of how to go about getting the deals for very little OOP (out of pocket).

Here are my savings from today:

I purchased $60.03 worth of merchandise for $13.36 OOP & left with $3.00 in ECB's and a $3 off $15 coupon in hand. (Lots of great school supplies this week.)

That's a 78% savings...INCREDIBLE!!

Here's what I purchased:

(2) Packs college ruled filler paper (150 count)
(2) 1" Binders
(2) 24 count boxes of #2 pencils
(2) memo pads (100 sheets)
(1) Colgate MaxWhite Toothpaste
(1) 2 pack of Oral B Toothbrushes
(1) CVS Brand Panty Liners 22 count
(1) Speed Stick Pro Men's Deodorant
(2) 10 count Paper Mate Pens
(2) CVS Brand 5 subject notebooks (180 sheet)
(1) Pack 2 count Reeses Cups

This week they are also offering a Kodak picture movie DVD for $9.99 and you get $9.99 back in ECB's. I'll be going to get mine before the weeks out! That will leave me $9.99 to start next week with which will mean much less OOP for me next week. YAY!!!

If you're not CVSing, YOU SHOULD GIVE IT A TRY!!

Next...

Super Double Coupons at Harris Teeter starting tomorrow. They will double coupons up to $1.98. Looking forward to lots of free deals : )

Check back later this week to find out how I did!
