I think we are stocked up....

Had yet another very productive trip to CVS tonight after dropping off a meal for a friend that just had a baby boy. (Congrats Lauren!)

Again I spent nothing out of pocket, but that will be ending soon ;0( as my gift card only has .77 cents left on it. Oh well, now I know what to ask Santa for! LOL I did 2 transactions today so that I could use my Extra Care Bucks that I earned on transaction #1 to help lower my total for transaction #2. So here is what I bought:
Transaction # 1:
2 packages of Charmin Ultra
1 pkg Bounty Basic
1 pkg Duracell Batteries
My total was $22.98 (or something like that) Minus my coupons for $4/20.00, and $13.49 in ECB's my total was down to $5.13 which I put on my gift card. I earned $10.00 Extra Care Bucks for buying $20 worth of Charmin, Bounty and/ Duracell products.

Transaction # 2
CVS brand bleach cleaner
Colgate
2 bottles of Suave body wash
Centrium Vitamins
My total before coupons was $20 something. Minus 2 manf. coupons for the vitamins $2.00(one was a tear off on the box, which is why I was able to use 2), .50 cents off toothpaste, $10.00 in Extra Care Bucks from last transaction (and I also had a buy one get free coupon for the Suave, but it doesnt look like that cashier rang it up correctly as I do not see it on the receipt) . So my total was down to $7.47 which again I put on the gift card. This time I only earned $2.00 in ECB's though.

My receipt shows that my year to date savings is $417.24 and that my spending is $68.41 (mind you $50.00 of that is on free gift cards!) So if you think about it I have spent $18.41 and gotten $417.24 worth of products that we use everyday so far since I started CVSing a little more than a month ago! Not too bad!!
