CVS Deal: MAKE $2 on Four Airwick Freshmatics!

I think the deals at CVS this week are slim pickens, except for their deal on Airwick!  You spend $20 and get $10 in ECBs.  The deal works when you buy four Air Wick Freshmatic Ultra machines on sale for $6.  Use four $4 off coupons.  You can print at least two per computer, but may need two computers to get this deal. 

When you buy four and use the coupons, you will spend $8 and get $10 in ECBs, so you actually make money (in ECBs)!  I will warn you to hurry. I hit up two CVS stores and bought their entire stock!

CVS: Free Stuff This Week After ECBs!

This week at CVS you can get two free items because you receive the price of the item back in Extra Care Bucks (ECB)!  If you commit to researching the deals each week and rolling your old ECBs to pay for new free items, then you can rack up quite a bit of "free" things!  If there aren't any free items and your ECBs are expiring, at least everyone can always use something from CVS.  My "go to" item is baby wipes or something I can score a deal on with coupons.  This week, however, you can get:

Pro Health (4.2 oz), 3D White Vivid, Clinical Gum Protection (4 oz), Multi Protection (8.4 oz), Scope Outlast Rinse (4 oz), or Satin Floss (55 yds).  (limit 2)
Cost $3.29
ECB $3.29

and

Revitalens Multi Purpose Solution (4 oz) (limit 1)
Cost $5.99
ECB $5.99

 Also CVS is offering $10 ECB for $30 on select P&G products.  With coupons, the savings combos are endless!

CVS Trip: $12.05 OOP $2.75 ECB

Yesterday I was a bit off my game.  I've promised myself that I will ALWAYS watch everything ring up and my coupons scan in and I WILL check my receipt before I leave the store, but I didn't and I found out that a few things that were supposed to be on sale weren't and some coupons didn't apply like I thought they would.  Such is life.  However, I did still get some good deals:

Two 12 pack cases of Coke - $10.98
Two Tostitos - $5
Colgate Total - $2.99
Dawn dish soap - $1.69
Physicians Formula Eye Shadow - $7.79 (said it was $6.99 on the shelf )
Cadbury Egg (not pictured...  :)) - $.75
Pampers Sippy Cups - $4.99
Epsom Salts (not a great deal, I just wanted them!) - $4.99

Coupons:
1 $4 off a $20 purchase from registering my CVS card
2 Free 12 packs of coke from My Coke Rewards
1 $.55 off Tostitos (SS 1/30/11)
1 $1 off Dawn dish soap  (You can occasionally use this to get free soap)
1 $.75 off Colgate Total
1 $7 off a Physical Formula from the CVS magic coupon machine


I paid $12.05 and used $5 ECB from before and got $2.75 back in ECB

CVS Trip: $5.11 Out of Pocket and $5 Extra Care Bucks Back!

I visisted CVS on Wednesday and got the following deals:

4 Nivea Lip Products (supposed to be $2.99 each)

1 CoverGirl Lip Stick (clearance $.074)

1 Softsoap (clearance $1.64)

1 Organizational Tote ($5)

I used the following coupons:

$3 off a $10 beauty purchase from the magic coupon machine

2 - Buy One Get One on Nivea Lip Products from RP 2/6/11

1 - $1 any Cover Girl Product

1- $.035 off a 8 oz softsoap

1 $10 voucher from WeShop.com (sold out) that I bought for $4

My Out of Pocket (OOP) was $1.11 + the $4 WeShop voucher and I got $5 Extra Care Bucks (ECB) back!  Of course, I made the fatal mistake of not checking my receipt in the store.  So, I was overcharged for 3 of the Nivea chapsticks, but oh well!  You live and learn!
