Yesterday was one of my occasional “coupon sprees” at CVS.
My tallies came up pretty dandy! As I’ve stated before, I don’t have the time or patience to “extreme coupon” with two small children, but my savings percentages were in that league. All I did was spend a few minutes scanning the deals online, printing out my matching coupons online, grabbing the coupons I already had clipped that went with the deal, loading my deals from my CVS club emails and folding it all into the CVS flier from the Sunday paper. If you aren’t signed up for the emails, do it! I get special deals almost weekly for 20% or 30% percent off or $5 off of a $30 or other similar discounts on top of coupons, sales and Extra Care Bucks. Annnnyway… on to the details of my awesome score! 🙂
My total (between two transactions) would have been $123.33.
My out of pocket expense was $13.81.
That’s a savings of $109.52, or 88.8%!!! 🙂
I’m not even counting into this equation the fact that I have $5 in Extra Care Bucks to use on my next transaction, so I’m more than pleased. I’m especially pleased because most of the items are things we use alot of, and not just “extras”. See the diapers? Yeah, buddy!!! 😉
Anyone else have a good couponing trip this week?

Nice! Its always a good day when you get diapers on sale! I too made a quick CVS trip. Only bought formula (normally $28) after that nice little 20% off coupon emailed and a $5 off $25 purchase (from the magic coupon machine), 6 ECB’s and a $5 Similac check I only spent about $7 oop
not too bad 🙂

Wow, that’s a really good discount on formula! 🙂 I’ve always heard how expensive that can get. I went into shock when I actually looked the other day to see how much they cost, since I get some of the Gerber formula checks and such in the mail and figured if it was free or nearly free I would get some to donate.
