CVS Deals Matched with Competitor’s Coupons, July 27-August 2

Most CVS stores where I live in the Dayton, Ohio area take competitor’s coupons! It varies by store so ask your store manager if they take them where you shop!

Just a note: here in Dayton, we got a crappy CVS ad this week. Almost all fabulous ECB deals the rest of the country got, we DID NOT GET! Waaaahhhh!!! So. I am sad. But there are still some good Walgreens q’s that match up so I guess its not a total loss.

Ok, so now on with my post…

***UPDATE! I just returned from CVS and we DID get the Johnson & Johnson deal!!!***

Ladies (and dudes too I guess), run don’t walk to Walgreens to get their new EasySaver catalog!! It’s got lots of q’s that can be used this week!! Or you can view it and print the coupons from the Walgreens website here.

Buy $10 of Hershey’s candy, get 5 ECB.
In the Wags ES catalog there are many $1/2 coupons for these products, including the M&M’s, Hershey’s or Mars miniatures, or Skittles/Starburst bags which are all $2/$5.
Single candy bars are also included and I know I got some CRTs for those so check your CRT stash!!

Monthly deal alert!! Buy Bic Soleil Razor and 4-ct. cartridges at $6.99 each, get 5 ECB.
There is a $2 off q for these in the Wags ES catalog. If you still have any of the $4 off manu q’s from a few weeks back, this is a killer deal! If you have two manu q’s and two Wags ES q’s you can spend $3.98 and get 5 ECB! This is only good until July 31st!

Schick Intution Plus Razor, $3.99. (What a price! Get those early in the week!)
There is once again a $2 off coupon for these in the Wags ES catalog this month! If you still have any of the $2 off manu q’s on those from a few weeks ago, they will be payin’ you a penny to buy one!! YAY!

Colgate Total is on sale (When is it NOT??) for $1.50 and there is always the trusty Target printable for this for $1 off, though it does expire 7/30. There are manu q’s out for this today in the Smart Source.


Now if you don’t live in Dayton and got the GOOD CVS ad this week where you live, here are some deals for you (lucky jerks)!

Kotex maxis are $2/5.
There are $1.50 off q’s for these in the Wags ES catalog and we had 75 cents off q’s for them in last week’s Smart Source. So if you use two of each kind of q you can get two packs of maxis for 50 cents.

There is a big ECB deal on Johnson & Johnson products. Buy $20, get $10. Here are the Wags ES q’s that match up for this deal:
Benadryl is $5. There is a $1 q in the ES catalog and we had $1 ff q’s in the RedPlum from 6/22 ( I think!)
Tylenol Allergy and Tylenol Sinus is $6. There are $1 ES q’s for this also. I am sure there are manu q’s out there somewhere for this as well! You can always register for a $1 off printable good on any Tylenol here.
Efferdent is also $6, and there is a $1 off ES q for this.

The Garnier Eye Roller is $12.99, if you buy it AND Maybelline Define-A-Lash mascara (not sure on price), you get 10 ECB. There is a $5 off q for teh Garnier Eye Roller in the Wags ES q, and there were $2 off q’s for this on a tearpad at my local RiteAid. (I got a few!)

Other deals:
Crest toothpaste or Oral B toothbursh, $1.99. There are $1 off q’s for both of these in the Wags ES catalog. I think there were q’s for both of these in the P&G 7/6 insert as well.

Bayer Heart Advantage is $5.99 and there is a $3 off Wags ES q, plus there were $2.50 off q’s and $2 off q’s in recent inserts.

That’s all I see for the moment! Feel free to leave a comment if YOU find a great deal!

All Shop and No Pay Makes Jenny a Happy Girl!

Well, I had great fun CVSing this week! I even had a couple of transactions that ended in ZERO out-of-pocket. Yay! Here’s what I got!

My first stop at CVS this week was for MILK! But I can’t go in and get JUST MILK! So…

cvsglade.jpg
Milk $3.69
Loreal Vive BOGO Free $4.99
3 Glade Scented Oil Candle refills @ $2.49 each = $7.47 (you know I loves me my GSOC!!)
Total = $16.16
I used CVS $3/$15 coupon
Loreal Vive BOGO coupon (making them both free!)
Two $1 off Loreal Vive Rite Aid coupons (givng me oooooooveraaaage!!!! yess!)
Buy two get one free GSOC refill coupn -$2.49
$2/$2 GSOC refill coupon (inside GSOC holder package I had previously purchased)
Total = $1.67. I didn’t have any ECB small enough, so I paid in cash $2.34 with tax and got back 3 ECB for the Glade! yay!

Now, I am an old lady and have been having trouble with my back, so my next stop was to get some of those WellPatch(es) that are a July monthly ECB deal. And get some more free-plus-overage shampoo. And free baby wipes!!

Four Loreal Vive shampoo/conditioner BOGO Free $9.98
1 CVS baby wipes $2
2 WellPatch $11.98
Tic Tacs (not pictured!) 89 cents
Total = $24.85
I used:
CVS $3/$15
Two $1 off WellPatch
$2 off CVS Skincare q (for the wipes – wasn’t sure if this would work but it did! yay!)
Two BOGO Free Loreal Vive q’s
Four $1 off Rite-Aid Loreal Vive q’s
total = $3.87. I paid with 3 ECB and with tax $1.99 cash and got back 6 ECB for the WellPatches!!

Since that $2 off skincare q worked on the baby wipes, I decided to go crazy and compete the Great Free Baby Wipe Deal of 2008. This week at CVS, if you bought $15 of CVS baby products, you got back 5 ECB. Since the $2 off CVS skincare q worked on the wipes, this meant I could get 8 free tubs of wipes and then get 5 ECB after I got the last one. One problem: you can only use ONE of those coupons per transaction. So this meant I would have to do 8 different transactions! So I added one as a filler very time I went in, but eight times a week is excessive EVEN FOR ME. A couple of times I did two transactions when I was in the store, and then finally I went in one night on my way to Kroger to add some more wipes toward the deal with a couple of sweet zero-OOP transactions!

This is two separate transactions, both of which I paid ZERO out-of-pocket for thanks to coupons! The first one was:
1 CVS baby wipes $2
1 Playskool baby wipes $3.79
3 Sally Hansen nail polish clearance at 43 cents each
Total = $7.08
Coupons:
$2 CVS skincare q
$2 off Playskool CRT
$1 of Playskool manu q
$3/2 Sally Hansen q

The cashier adjusted the Sally Hansen q down to cover my TOTAL before tax, instead of just the cost of the nail polish, so the total came out to ZERO!! Woohoo!
2nd transaction:
1 CVS baby wipes $2
1 CVS hand sanitizer $1.79
Used $2 off CVS skincare q and Free Hand Sanitizer CRT for another total of ZERO!!

I finally finished out the Great Free Baby Wipe Deal of 2008 with this transaction (I bought two tubs so I really did itin seven transactions instead of eight. Eight was TOO MANY!!):

OFF repellent $3.49
two Sure deodorant $5.98

I paid with 6 ECB and 45 cents cash and got back 9 ECB! 5 for completeing the wipes deal, 3 for the Sure deodorant and 1 for the Trident! Woohoo!

How Do I love CVS? Let Me Count the Ways!

The deals this week at CVS weren’t TOO killer, but I was still able to get some great deals since my CVS accepts competitor coupons, and I was also able to pay for some things I needed with ECBs! Yay! So, it was a pleasure as usual. One day this week when I was there, a customer came in while I was checking out and was extremely rude to the two cashiers working. I mean, unacceptable, uncalled for, mean-for-no-reason RUDE. If I hadn’t had my two kids with me, I might have politely told her to chill. I was so sad that the cashiers had to deal with her, and I am sure she is not the only one! So be nice to your CVS folk!! ‘Cause not everybody is.

Anyhoo, here’s what I got:

cvs17cents.jpg
Two Benefiber $6.99 each
Gas-X $5.29
Excedrin Back & Body $4.79
total = $24.06
Coupons:
$3/$15 CVS q
Two $2 off Benefiber manu q’s
Two $2 off Benefiber Walgreens EasySaver catalog q’s
$2 off Gas-X Walgreens ES catalog q
$2 off Excedrin man q
$3 off Excedrin CRT from CVS
total = 6.06
Paid with 6 ECB and 17 cents cash and got back 10 ECB! Woohoo! Also I will be getting back a $4.99 rebate for the Excedrin! Yes! I loooves getting ECBs AND cash!

Next I got this:

I paid with 2 ECB and $1.56 cash and got back 2 ECB for the Bayer! Woot!

Finally, I had to make a stop at Rite-Aid for some freeeeeeebates! Actually, moneymakers!
