CVS

So I recently got turned onto the cultish world of CVSing. After 2 trips, I got super lucky on the 3rd....Lucky to the tune of $3.54 for all of the items in the above picture. If you're interested in learning how to use CVS to your advantage, read about it here: http://www.dealseekingmom.com/2008/06/cvs-for-newbies.html

So here's what I did:
I started with $5 ECB (Extra Care Bucks)

1st Transaction:
1 Extra Gum 8-pack @ $1 each
1 Bic Soleil 4-pack @ $4.99
8 Hershey Extra Dark huge bars @ $1.79 each

$2 off $10 coupon (CVS)
8 $2 off Hershey Bar coupon (facebook coupon application)
$2 off Bic Soleil refil

TOTAL: $.54 and earned $10 ECB for the Hershey Bars & gum

2nd Transaction:
1 Extra Gum 8-pack @ $1
1 Bic Soleil 4-pack @ $4.99
2 Colgate @ $2.79 (BOGO)
7 Orbit gum packs @ $1.19
6 Pantene shampoo/conditioner @ $7.99

$3 off Bic Soleil refil
$.50 off Colgate coupon
7 $1.25 off Orbit coupon (facebook application)

I don't get it - I don't know if I've ever used a coupon (seriously!). The closest I've come is mail-in-rebates.

You've seriously never used a coupon? Oh there's so much to learn! There are even certain Grocery stores that DOUBLE your coupon. I've heard of some that TRIPLE your coupon, but have not experienced the joy...
