Quick FreeVS trip. . .

I just had a fascinating CVS trip!

I had to go there to get some cold medicine cuz these darn kids are walking around snuffling and sneezin. . .and I am walking around sayin wash your hands! Cough into your elbow! Did you take medicine? have any OJ today? LOL I do NOT want to be sick!! So far, so good.

Anyways. . .back to the point. . .I knew that CVS had sudefed and tylenol on sale. I grabbed my coupons and off I went. Because I was making dinner at the time, I had to hurry because my kids was "starving!" Yeah right!! LOL I was actually hurrying because I wasn't sure if they closed at 5pm or 7pm and knew I had to get the meds before tomorrow. . .I was freaking out at the fact that if I didn't make CVS, I would have to buy expensive meds somewhere else!! AGH! can't do that!!! o_O I made it. . .it is the pharmacy that closes at 5pm, the store is open till 7pm! Whew. . .that was a close one! Especially after you hear the deal I got!! ;)

Okay, so Sudafed was on sale for $6.50 (reg 6.79) and Tylenol for $6.00 (reg 6.99). CVS is running a "buy $20 of J&J products, get $10 ECBS"!! I had to get sudafed because it was a special request (LOL not TOO special though because if it hadn't been on sale, it would have beeen tough love!).

I grabbed a sudafed, and 3 tylenols which ended up totaling $24.50. I had a $5 off $25 coupon as well, so I added 2 reeses pieces for .89 each. (working on that ECB lol)

The total before coupons was $26.28

Minus $11.00 in coupons ($3 off 2 tyl., $1 off tyl., and $2 off sud. + $5 off $25).

Total = 15.28

ECBs = 13.50 ($10 J&J deal, and unbeknownst to me $3.50 for "summer spending")

Which means I actually spent $1.78 for 4 boxes of cold medicine and 2 candy bars!!! WOOOOOT!!! :)

Now Im gonna take my ECB's and go get some deals on Revlon Nail Colors which are $3.99, but CVS is offering $3 ECBs on each which makes it .99, plus I know I have some Revlon coupons. . .AND the limit is 6 on this deal!! :) Hey, at least I have a plan for the ECBs this time! they don't even expire until 11/3 and 11/18 so I think I will be good even if I don't do the Revlon. . .but dang, nail polish at that price (.99 to free) . . .I think I'll take it while I can!!

P.S. I will be giving FREE stuff for xmas! LOL
