I paid only $5 for items in both pictures plus got $13 ECBs. I was able to roll over ECBs and use CVS gift cards (otherwise all this would be $25.) Ah... the beauty of rolling over ECBs.

The gift cards are from when I made some returns a while back. Since I had bought the items using other ECBs, the register only wanted to give me back the amount I paid after the ECBs I used. So it came out to just a few dollars. Instead of watching me writhe in the agony of frustration, they refunded me the full amount into a CVS Gift Card. This is something to watch out for when making returns. Make sure they give you the full value of the item returned.

A friend let me know that when she went to CVS Saturday evening, they let her get the new deals for Sunday. I called to confirm and they said that as long as the signs are up on the shelves already, we can go ahead and get them. I looked at the clearance items too. Select Aveeno bath items 50% off for $3.50 (use $2 PRINT). Planters Trail mix 50% off for $1.35. Some make-up marked at least 75% off in a shopping cart by the registers: Almay and Lumene.
