CVS gummy candy is excellent! There's an entire thread on this subject on another board, but someone said that the same folks who make haribo gummies make the CVS brand. I don't know if that's true, but they taste very similar. YUM!

I like the CVS Ultra Soft Stretch diapers pretty well-- they are like a lot of other store brands. I am not so hot on the wipes, even though a lot of people said they they really liked them. I think I'll stick to Huggies wipes once I use up the big stash of CVS wipes.

I hate CVS dental floss. It shreds between my teeth, and then I have the little shreds stuck there. Yuck!!

So unless y'all say I MUST get the Clorox, I'm going with the CVS for less than 25% of the price.

My CVS tablet works fine. After 3 weeks of use, the toilet is still clean.

We like the CVS Cashews ok and I loved the Caramel Corn that I got today. 10 boxes for $10 (used $2/$10 heart CVS coupon) along with incorporating it into one of those $10 off/$50 coupon deals.

I'm hoping to stash it in the back of my growing stockpile so that 8 or 9 boxes last until Easter.

Oh and I love the Life Fitness Gum (which I've heard is a CVS product) especially when I got a number of packs of it free.

I bought the Gentle Tape (like the brown bandages) to wrap around a sprained ankle and when DH tried to put it on, it started to stick to itself (which it says it does)... but it's like cheap packing tape, once it touches itself, there is no prying it apart. It got all tangled and I tried to get it back into a usable form unsuccessfully. I would NOT recommend this product. But it was the only one of its types in the store. It was the 3 inch one that cost $4.99 in my store.

There are money back guarantees on CVS brand... how do I use that? DH wasn't really even able to use it once - like it should have been used. Do I just take the open package back to the store?

I do like the Toffee Popcorn w/peanuts :) i didn't like the apple juice - as I felt it tasted strange and felt a little bit watered down. Even for $1, I would rather spend the extra money on Motts.

I like the large kitchen garbage bags with deodorant and yellow string ties. Very easy to use and not flimsy. I also like the paper plates (with blue/purple flowers) because they are much like Dixie brand.

I also like the Christophe brand hair accesories and clips. They were included in a promotion last Nov./Dec. so they were free. They are very expensive, but I can't complain when they are free.

I have to say how much I love the Life Fitness pain patches, I started getting them for the overage (with the $3 cpn from the Heart Beat booklet, since they're $1.99) but my knee was hurting so I decided to try one a couple of weeks ago and they're great! They stick on well and move with you, since I put it on my knee, most patches come off after a while since you're bending your knee and walking, but these actually stay on pretty well. They do start to peel off eventually (like when you've been going up and down the stairs doing laundry all afternoon - LOL).
