Today's deals

It's been awhile since I posted photos of my shopping exploits so I thought I'd do that today.

Today I went to CVS and Rite Aid. I am liking Rite Aid more and more.

First, the employees are nice (so far).

Second, the whole system seems pretty easy to manage and I don't worry about losing Extra Care Bucks!

CVS:

I have the CVS system down pretty well so that I almost never spend real money. Sometimes I spend more Extra Care Bucks than I make but it doesn't bother me because I know I will be able to work it out another week. But the manager at my CVS kind of gives me the evil eye most of the time when I'm in there.

Today I got a bunch of Valentine's Candy to send to my missionary son, some beef jerky (also for the same son), and a few various toiletries.

I spent almost 19 ECBs and got back about 8 ECBs. But the one shampoo has a rebate so I'll get the price of that one back in cash ($6.99). Not bad!

Rite Aid:

I spent $5.27 on all this stuff. The vitamins alone are priced at $12.49 apiece so...go me!

There is a 5.00 rebate on the Advil. Cha Ching!

And the Bayer, Colgate and Vitamins put me over the top for a $10 Rite Aid gift card. (Hoping to go back for more vitamins to get up to a $25 gift card though).

The Chex mix was free after coupons and was really just a filler to get me over $25 so I could use a $5 off $25 coupons. Like I need more Chex Mix??? I think I'll send it to my missionary...
