My first Depends purchase!

Well, I did it. I practice what I preach. And I've preached to my readers that you always buy items that give you overage, no matter what the item is. This week, CVS had Depends undergarments for 6.99 with 6.99 ECBs back. I had a $2/1 coupon which made it 4.99, with 6.99 back. It is equivalent to handing CVS $5 for a $7 gift card to use in their store! I will add the depends to my "charity" stockpile. CVS made a sale, I made $2, and someone else will appreciate getting them for free. It's a win/win/win :)
Here is a rundown of my CVS order:
1 Aquafresh toothpaste 2.49
2 Aquafresh Isoactive toothpase @ 3.99each =7.98
3 bags of M&Ms @ 3.00 each = 9.00
4 Nivea body wash @ 4.88 each = 19.52
1 Depends pack 6.99
Subtotal: $45.98

Coupons used: -$37.88
$2/2 any bodywash CVS store coupon
$3/2 M&Ms CVS store coupon
$5/$40 purchase CVS store coupon
$2/1 Depends
B2G1 M&Ms (-3.00)
(2) $4/1 Nivea
B1G1 Nivea(-4.88)
$10 Extra Care Bucks from last week

Total OOP: $8.10

Got back :
6.99 Depends
5.00 Aquafresh
5.00 Nivea
$16.99 Extra Care Bucks to use next time!

~All thanks to God~

Always scan your CVS card...and repeat!

I found a new CVS trick yesterday! At least it was new to me :) I went to the store to do the Nivea deal and of course, I scanned my card as soon as I went in. I shopped around and about 10 minutes later, I went back and scanned my card again. Voila! More coupons came out! I even got a $2/2 (any) body wash or soap coupon. I'm already buying body wash, so...Sweet! I probably should have scanned it one more time...but I was happy with my deals, so I didn't push my luck. Next time I will keep scanning it until it tells me, "Game over lady, please leave the store."


All in all, I spent $8.61 and got back $16.99 in ECBs(Extra Care Bucks) for my next shopping trip.

(Isn't that a cool CVS sign?)
