Where I post my coupon-related musings, and the weekly shopping trip excursions, helping me keep track of how much I've saved since I started this. Ideally, it'll keep going up! (:
CVS 4 June 08 - Frustration
Posted 06-04-2008 at 01:42:20 PM by Kyrthira
Went into CVS to do a nice batch of deals and roll some ECBs -- Listerine x2, then bandaids and lots of tuna. I'd heard the limit was raised on the Listerine, so I was going to roll the Listerine once for good measure and end up with four bottles. THEY HAD ONE BOTTLE LEFT. Argh. I spent some time doing emergency math to figure out a new scenario (without a calculator, since I forgot my phone) and ended up just getting the one bottle and some soap. We were almost out anyway. I'm just frustrated I hauled my butt out there and didn't get most of the stuff I was after!
I'll call them up later this week and make sure they've got some, then roll the $3.49 ECB to get three more bottles -- or if my husband has enough money left over on Friday, I'll just buy all three at once and have even MORE ECBs for next time. Or something. I'll figure it out.
Listerine Smart Rinse: $3.49 - $1 Q
Ivory 4-pack: $2.49
ECB used: $4.69
OOP w/tax: $.37
ECBs Gained: 3.49 + 1
ALSO I have a $4/$20 coupon from an email, which I'm hoping to use next week. It's my first one, wooo!
