I haven't shared for awhile, because my oop's are so high! Thought I would share this one since it looked a little better!

2 Colgate - 5.98
Extreme Energy - 4.99
Crest - 2.99
Folgers - 6.99
20.95

4/20 CRT
3.00 Colgate
1.00 Crest
11.58 ecb (for Advil)

Get back 5.98, 4.99, 2.00, 3.00

Not too bad :)

Question....at CVS, do you have to buy 2 items to get the BOGO, or can you get 1 item for half price??

[t1lersm0m]

As with any store, you have to buy two items. I once sent my husband to get an item buy one get two free. He only picked up two, and we paid for both. He was thoroughly scolded!!!!

[isis]

At CVS, you do need to purchase 2 when items are BOGO. The 1st item rings up reg price, 2nd item 0.00/free.

t1lersm0m ~ some stores ring 1/2 price on bogo items. Not in my area, but have seen it posted in other store forums.

[ky2001ank]

Thank you for the information! At my local grocer (Giant PA), you can buy just 1 item and get it for half price instead of buying 2... so i just wasn't sure with CVS. Thank you!!
