8/17-8/23 CVS and Walgreens Scenarios

I completely forgot to take a picture this week, but here’s what I scored:



CVS:

5 Crest Toothpastes
$1.99 Each, Used 5 $0.75 Off Coupons, Received $5 in ECBs
Final Price = $0.25 Each After ECBs (or free if you still have $1 coupons - and it’s actually limit 6!)

3 Boxes Puffs Facial Tissue
$0.88 Each, Used 3 $0.25 Off Coupons
Final Price = $0.63 Each

1 Schick Quattro Titanium Razor
$7.99, Received $5 ECB
Final Price = $2.99 After ECBs (I bought this in order to use my $10 in ECBs, continue to roll ECBs, use the $2/$10 coupon and because they were out of the Revlon Lash Fantasy Mascara - $1.99 after ECBs/coupon)

Used $2/$10 CVS Coupon

Walgreens:

3 Bags Hershey’s Candy (Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups and Hershey’s Kisses)
On Sale 2/$3 (Limit One), and the Third was $2, Used $1 Easy Saver Coupon (Took Off $1.50)
Final Price = Free After Rebate (I needed $5 more toward the $5 rebate on $10 worth of Hershey’s)

Triamedic Cough Strips
On Clearance for $3.29, Used $2 Off Coupon
Final Price = $1.29 (and eligible for Flexible Health Savings Account reimbursement)

Speedo Swim Goggles
On Clearance for $1.49

    Don’t you just love having an FSA and being a CVS shopper? You get great deals and if you have any money left over you get reimbursed. You are the first person online doing the drugstore game that has mentioned a FSA. Great deals!
