Today I decided to do something useful with my lunch break...SHOP! I can eat any time, but great deals are only around for a week at a time, so off to CVS I went. Since I was shopping near work instead of home, I got to try out a new store. I headed to the Congress Street Westgate location and was less than impressed to find that their magic coupon machine was broken! The other strange observation was that they didn't seem to carry the A&W Root Beer as part of this week's BOGO deal. It's not that they were out, they don't even carry them. It's off to Windham tonight for me!
Here's what I did get:
4 7-Up and Sunkist Sodas, $1.87 each BOGO
Used 2 $1/2 7-Up, Sunkist, Sun Drop, Canada Dry or A&W Soda Coupons
Paid $1.74 plus tax and deposit
This is amazing since anything under $1 is usually my stock-up price for soda!
2 Colgate Total Advanced Toothpaste
Regular Price $3.79
Sale Price $2.99
Used $1/1 Colgate Advanced Coupons
Paid $1.99 each for $3.98 total
Received $4 in ECB!
2 Advil PM 4-Count $.99 each
Used 2 $1/1 Advil PM 4-Count+ from 3/11 RP
Total Retail Value $17.04
Total After Coupons $6.51 including tax and deposit
Used $5 ECB from prior purchase
Paid $1.51 OOP
Earned $4 in ECB so I am only down $1 in ECB from where I started the day!
I started this challenge with $14.99 in ECB and a $10 Gift Card I earned on Swagbucks. I now have $22.99 left in ECB and have purchased $86.01 worth of products.
Since the magic coupon machine was broken, a few printed out on my receipt:
$4 off $20 or more...my favorite for when there are great diaper deals!
$1 off any Secret, Old Spice or Gillette Deodorant...I see a stack in my future!
and $3 off any L'Oreal Cosmetics...Because I'm Worth It! Seriously, the coupon actually says that!
