CVS Scenarios - week of 4/10

After a really good set of trips to CVS yesterday, I was hopeful to find some great deals again this week. There are a couple of deals, but not much that has me really excited. Perhaps it is because I have done some good stock ups recently and really am not in need of much. I'm hoping to do something with the Finish dishwasher tabs, as dishwasher detergent deals seem to be hard to find.

1 - Super Miracle Bubbles

Total $2.73, earn $2.73 ECBs.

CVS $5 Challenge
Transaction #1

1 - Super Miracle Bubbles

Total $2.73, earn $2.73 ECBs.

To be truly under $5, you can stop at Transaction #1 or you can continue and significantly increase your amount of product, but your out of pocket will be higher.

Transaction #2
3 - Airwick Freshmatic Starter Kits
1 - Lysol Toilet Bowl Cleaner

-$4 Airwick Freshmatic Starter Kit mfg coupon

-$2 $2/3 Special K IP

Total $9.94, pay with $10 ECB adjusted down. Earn $4 ECBs.

If you did just Transaction #1, your net cost is FREE. If you did all three scenarios, for just $7.50 OOP, you would have $37.17 in product, with $4 ECBs to roll. A savings of 82%.
