More Shopping Deals (6-6-08)
By TheAngelForever | June 7, 2008
After Monday’s visit to CVS there were a few items I was thinking about purchasing. Yesterday I decided it was well worth the trip there with all of the coupons that I had. So after NHL’s nursery school party and swim lesson the two boys and I went to CVS hunting for certain items.
This is everything that I bought:
Once again I broke them into three transactions to maximize using coupons. Below are breakdowns of everything.
Transaction 1:
Total of transaction including sale prices – $15.98
2 packages of Pampers.
Coupons used – $5.00
ECB used – $9.98
ECB earned – None ($16 toward ECBs earned after spending $20 on Pampers)
Total out of pocket – $1.12
Transaction 2:
Total of transaction including sale prices – $14.96
4 bags of Chex Mix (various types)
2 Listerine Berry Smart Rinse
2 sheer CVS bandages
Coupons used – $7.00
ECB used – $6.00
ECB earned – $10.96
Total out of pocket – $2.12
Transaction 3:
Total of transaction including sale prices – $15.98
2 packages of Pampers.
Coupons used – $5.00
ECB used – $10.00
ECB earned – $5.00
Total out of pocket – $1.10
Totals for all items:
Total of transactions including sale price - $46.92
Coupons used – $17.00
ECB used – $25.98
ECB earned – $15.96
Total out of pocket - $4.34
Sure I lost some ECB’s buying more diapers than I needed for the $20.00 total, but I saved in not having to drive to BJ’s for diapers for a little while.
Thanks to Money Saving Mom for all of the great tips!

Is it sad that I am excited for tomorrow’s sale paper to see what the ECB deals are and if I can use any of my $14 worth of ECB’s that are burning a hole in my pocket? LOL
