My CVS trip 05/16/10

Here is what I scored yesterday at CVS for $16.74 (includes 6% MI sales tax...without came to $13.44):

Here's the breakdown:

Huggies Box (82 ct for size 4)-$18.99 x 2 = $37.98

Dawn Hand Renewal x 5 = $4.17

Lady Speed Stick = $2.99

Blade 5 Shaver = $6.99

Aussie Moist Shampoo = $2.99

Aussie Aussome Volume gel = $2.99

CVS Coastal Shampoo = $.99

Covergirl Wetslicks AmazeMint x 2 = $5.99 (BOGO)

Honey Nut Cheerios Bowls x 2 = $1.67

Chicken of the Sea Light Tuna in Water (fillers) x 5 = $4.16

Subtotal = $70.92

Coupons:

Huggies Snug and Dry $3.00/1 x 2 = $6.00

Lady Speed Stick (RIB magazine) = $1.00

Dawn Hand Renewal $1.00/1 x 3 = $3.00

Dawn Hand Renewal $1.00/2 = $1.00

$1.00 any CVS Hair product scanner q = $1.00

$10/$50 CVS q = $10.00

$2.00 ECB

$3.00 ECB

$3.50 ECB

$4.00 ECB

$4.00 ECB

$4.99 ECB

$5.00 ECB

Coupon Subtotal = $57.48

Total before tax = $13.44 + $4 Aussie ECB, $6.99 Blade ECB and $2.00 Lady Speed Stick ECB

Not bad for $13.44! I saved $82.22 according to my CVS receipt (it's taking regular prices into account, not just coupons)! I technically "lost" $13.50 in ECB but this was because the other day I forgot my ECB at home and had to spend without it so really it cost me no extra...plus I wanted to use them up. Any more than $15 in ECB is too much at one time in my opinion. Still a great deal for the diapers alone! (Without the ECB and with the $10/$50 q, the diapers were about $10.50 a box! That is a great price!)

My first post!

Okay, so I know that there are MANY blogs out there catering to dealseekers and moneysavers, but I've had a few requests asking how I get the deals I do, so I'm going to set up my small corner here with just a little bit of information on how I shop, where I shop, what I get and how I do it. This is mainly for family and friends that have asked me about saving money and so I can share my rewards with them. :)

Since I've been doing a lot of shopping at CVS lately (mainly because they are close to my house and I take trips right near there often), I'm going to introduce you to a few deals you can still snag there this week (4/18-4/24). Here's some deals I found worth mentioning.
