CVS, Walgreen’s

A good week at CVS:

1 Garnier Fructis Shampoo @ 2.99
1 Garnier Fructis Conditioner @ 2.99
1 Venus Embrace Razor (finally!) @ 9.99
1 Johnson’s Buddies EZ Grip Soap @ .99

= 16.96 original total

Coupon: .99 off Johnson’s buddies soap
CVS ECB’s: $5 off purchase
CVS: 5/15 store coupon

= $5.97 OOP; earned $6 ECB (razor) + $4 ECB (shampoo’s)

I don’t generally patronize Walgreen’s unless the deals are really good. This week wasn’t bad:

1 Yes to carrots Body Butter @ 12.99
1 Garnier Fructis Hair product @ 3.99

= 16.98

Easy Saver Rebate will reimburse $9.99 on the body butter and 3.99 on the hair product, bringing the overall cost to $3.00.

Playing Catch Up

Last week’s shopping experience at CVS was pretty lackluster–I avoided the lion’s share of the OOP amount by blowing ECB’s. Perhaps that’s why I forgot to post about it.

2 Swiffer Duster Refills @ 5.99 = $11.98
1 Johnson’s Buddies Easy Grip Soap @ .99
1 Feminine Care Product @ 3.99

=16.96 original total

I didn’t score any of the CVS 5/15’s until this week, but I did knock off a chunk with these: 

Coupon: .99 off Johnson’s Buddies soap
Coupon: $1 off Feminine product
CVS ECB: $2 off Feminine product
CVS ECB: $11 off total purchase

= $1.97 Out of Pocket, earned $5 in ECB’s (Swiffer)
