Great CVS Trip

I had some Extra Care Bucks that were expiring today and since my store seems to no longer be taking expired ECB I decided I would go ahead and try and snag some good deals. CVS is going to be advertising lots of great ECB deals over the next couple of weeks and some of them have already started, like this Oust Deal and the Soy Joy Deal. Also CVS has B1G1 50% off on CVS products this weeks and there are $2/$10 CRTs printing.

A couple of FYI's they are having problems with their scanners nationwide so you may want to make a small purchase so your CRTs will print off at the end of your receipt before making your larger purchase. Also the Soy Joy deals is advertised as limit 3 but (for now) the limit is really 6! If you want to be safe buy 3 and then check the bottom of your receipt to see if it says limit reached, I was able to buy 6. Here's what I did...

6 -6pks of Soy Joy Bars $6 each
2 -Oust Air Sanitizers $3.99 each
2 -CVS Dry Sweeping Cloths $3.99
2 -CVS Dry Sweeping Cloths $1.99
Total $55.94

Used
$5/$30 Medicare Quiz or HERE
$2/$10 CVS Products CRT
B1G1 FREE Oust 1/3/10 SS
Total $44.95
Earned $36 ECB Soy Joy, $6 ECB Oust
Total $2.95

Like I said I had ECBs expiring today ($43 worth!) so I did this all in one transaction. I also use a ton of the sweeper cloths and I was thrilled to get them at $.74 each box of 20. I haven't tried the CVS brand ones but at that price why not! For more of a profit you could do this scenario...

Buy 4 Soy Joy Bars $24
Buy 2 Oust $7.98
Total $31.98

Use
$5/$30
B1G1 Oust 1/3/10 SS
Total $22.99
Earn $30 ECB = $7.01 Money Maker!
