I’ve Got a Serious Case of the Shakes

Major emergency here, folks. I haven’t been to CVS in FOUR DAYS. The last time I was there was Monday, and I couldn’t even go to one of my “regular” CVSes because they were both CLOSED due to the power outages from Sunday’s windstorm. So, I went to a not-so-coupon-friendly location because I HAD to get Joshua’s Zyrtec.

My two fave CVSes did not re-open until Wednesday. I excitedly called Wednesday to see if they were open and was filled with GLEE when told that they were. However, scheduling snafus (started because SOPHIE wouldn’t nap. Little booger.) prevented me from actually going. I was very sad! Then yesterday, we had Joshua’s homeschool co-op all day and I was going to go to CVS on the way home but he FELL ASLEEP on the way home and ruined those plans. (See, I am not fanatic enough about CVS to wake my kid up to go. Aren’t you proud, Emily?)

So today’s the day. It’s gotta be, ’cause I am about to die. I have some seriously painful CVS withdrawal symptoms. I’ve got the shakes, dry mouth, my nails are bitten to shreds, I’m irritable, and I think I’ve gained five pounds. I need some sweet deals, some coupons, and some ECBs to make everything okay again! Today I need to go to CVS so bad I would go with dirty hair and no makeup (normally I pretty myself up for CVS. But I will go fugly to Walgreens), no breakfast, and I MAY just take my kids in their PJs.

We addicts will sometimes do anything for a score. For this junkie, that time has come.

(P.S. I had an article published at Blissfully Domestic today about Getting the Most Out of Your Coupons! Do me a favor and go check it out. Leave me a comment so they will think I am a really great writer and I won’t get fired. K? Thx!)
