The CVS Happy Dance

Even though I didn't "coupon" this week, I still went CVSing because I had coupons that were applicable and there were some happy deals.
  • Edge Shaving Gell 2/$4 combined with two $.75 coupons = 2/$2.50

  • 2 packs of Stayfree Maxi Pads $4.50 each minus two $1.00 coupons = 2/$7.00 plus I got $5.00 back in ECBs.

  • 1 packet of Kotex pads - $1.39 minus $1.00 coupon = $.39 and I got $1.49 back in ECBs! (I think the pads were priced wrong in that store, but hey, I earned $1.10 so I'm not complaining!)

  • 1 box of Playtex Tampons $4.99 minus one $1.00 coupon = $3.99 with $3.00 back in ECBS.

Total before coupons = 19.38

Total after coupons = $13.88

Paid $5.00 out in ECBs, so my total out of pocket = $8.88

And I got $9.49 in ECBS for next time. So theoretically, I just got paid to go shopping :)
