CVS $5 Challenge
Although there are only a few great finds at CVS this week, it's still fun to do this CVS $5 Challenge. Also, check out Money Saving Mom for other CVS Deals. Here are 3 transactions with $5 or less total out of pocket:
Transaction #1
Deal: Buy 2 Colgate Total 6oz for $5, Get $2 ECBs, Limit 4
Buy 2
Use (2)- $1 off 1 coupon (from today's paper 6-28)
Pay $3 OOP. Get $2 ECB
Transaction #2
Deal: Buy 3 Cheerios Original for $6, Get $2 ECBs
Buy 3
Use (3)- $1 off 1 coupons from the Cheerios 10 in 1 Challenge
Use $2 ECB from #1
Pay $1 OOP. Get $2 ECB
Transaction #3
Deal: BOGO Irish Spring Body Wash ($4.99 each)
Buy 2
Use (2)- $1 off 1 coupon (from Smart Source home mailer last week)
Use $2 ECB from Transaction #2
Pay $1 OOP
Total OOP: $5 and no ECBs left.
But this would have cost $16 on sale without ECBs and coupons and much more at regular price.
Another great deal is the Coppertone Sun Care. Get 2 FREE after ECBs! It's not included in the $5 Challenge because the OOP is more than $5.
Deal: Buy 2 Coppertone Sun Care, Get $8 ECBs
Buy 2 Coppertone Ultra Guard Spray (w/ trial size Sun Shield attached to it), $8.99 each
Use (2)- $5 off Copperstone Sun Shield from here Thanks Hip To Save!
Pay: $7.98. Get $8 ECBs (making this 2 FREE sunscreen!)

Wow - you did really well at CVS this week. Seems like the great deals are getting smaller and smaller.
ReplyDeletethanks! I've been wanting to try the new coppertone, but not at that price!
