The. Best. CVS. Trip. Ever.
First of all, no one was in the store at…what, 9-something? Almost 10? to shuffle around and bump into with my massive coupon box. Secondly, they had everything in stock. EVERYTHING. That almost never happens at my CVS. I did it in three transactions, with a base start of $17.00 in ECBs; paid $5.47 OOP: $4 to start, and $1.47 since I didn’t have a small enough ECB denomination on the second transaction. And, AND, I came home with $51.91 in ECBs, and $97.00 worth of merchandise. I used coupons on every item except the Reeses, G2 Gatorade, and 1 of the L’Oreal Juicy lip glosses (my printer wouldn’t work when I did the survey-for-a-coupon thing
). But oh, if only every week went as smoothly. No one in line…each transaction playing out like a textbook example of couponing…applauding cashiers… *contented sigh* Well, even if it’s not like this all the time, I’ll take my dream week (this on top of my Black Friday steals!) with a hearty dose of…what else? Thanksgiving.






When I went there this morning. I scanned my card, and out came a 10off50 coupon, it doesn’t get better than that for me. Lipgloss and nail polish for JaneTaxpayer 2.0, shampoo and toothpaste, and a few other things, all for free. Not bad for a few minutes time. My CVS was empty as well.

Nice! Yeah, I got the 10$/50$ coupon too, but couldn’t use it right away since I didn’t have enough ECBs…have to save it till next time!
Not bad at all for a few minutes!
