I (heart) CVS too!

Made a trip to CVS yesterday- picked up the June monthly ECB book and purchased a few things that we needed. I had 3 transactions - I had it all planned out ahead of time... items circled on the flyer, coupons found and clipped, everything written down - line by line - Here's what I got....
Transaction #1
1 gallon of Milk 2.79 (Had a .55 coupon)
4 4pack of Double A batteries (Had 4 coupons 3.50 total)
2 9roll packs of toilet paper (yep- had 2 coupons .50)
Total 18.73 -- WAIT, I have 3 ECB totalling: 11.68, so my out of pocket was:
$9.22 (includes tax) and I received a 10.00 ECB to use on transaction number 2:



Transaction number 2:
2 packs of Wrigleys multi pack gum (on sale BOGO 2.49 1.00 coupon)
1 bottle of kids Listerine (3.49 had 1.00 coupon)
1 Brut Deodorant (3.19 NO COUPON- unbelievable, I know)
1 box CVS Bandages (1.99 no coupon, I know......)
1 box of Centrum Cardio vitamins (8.99 had a 3.00 coupon)
Total: 14.65 -- used the 10.00 ECB coupon from first tranasaction, brought my total out of pocket to: 4.65 +tax..... I received 8.49 in ECB AND-- AND-- AND-- I will get 8.99 back from Centrum because I had a mail in rebate!
On to transaction number 3:



4 2liters of Mountain dew (4 for 5.00 had a 2.00 coupon)
3 bags of Chex mix (on sale 1.00each had 3 /1.00 coupons)
2 bottles of Dawn (on sale for 1.00 each had 50 coupon)
1 box CVS bandages (1.99 - no coupon)
3 CVS sunscreen chapsticks (1.99 each)
1 CVS sunscreen stick for face (3.99 )
When I first went into CVS, I went to the kiosk and it printed out a 3.00 of 10.00 purchase of CVS items- hence the sunscreen) So-- the deal went down like this:
total before coupons: 21.95
after coupons: 13.45
ECB used: 10.78
total out of pocket: 2.67 AND I received 2.99 in ECB to use before July 1st. WAIT---- CVS had in their flyer that if you bought 4 2 liters of PEPSI products, you could mail in the reciept and upc for a REBATE of $5.00!
--- I only put 1 2liter in the pix- Doug confiscated the others and put them in the fridge--


It all ads up to: My initail out of pocket for the day: $16.56 (includes tax)
Rebates to be refunded to me: $13.99 - I will put that 13.99 back into my CVS envelope to replensh my CVS spending money- which by the way is not more than 20.00 for the month and trust me-- I ALWAYS have CHANGE!!!
AND - ECb I have yet to use from transactions: $8.49

I don't know which store I heart more-- Walgreens or CVS ....
