These are my most recent shopping trips that I still have the receipts for.
(!!!Talking about receipts save all of your receipts you never know if you already bought something for a mail-in rebate you just have to send the receipt for, always be prepared for money to be saved or sent to your house!!!)
CVS
Alright, I went to CVS with a $2 (from Shick)and a $4 (from newspaper) Schick razor coupon. Razors were B1G1 at 8.99.
8.99-4=4.99
4.99-2=2.99
so divide the difference
2.99/2=
1st razor for 1.49 and 2nd razor for 1.50 (plus tax)
HA HA!! GO COUPONS!!
Plus got raincheck on Brilliant.
Good day.
Oh yeah, those extra EBCs mom got milk and a planner.
Free milk and discount on planner, Go mom!
CVS
9.99 Passport pictures - going to Nicaragua this summer.
Pantene 2 for 6.97 (already at a savings of 3.01 off)
use 3 dollar off coupon
= 3.67 FOR 2 PANTENE!!!!
and got a $2 ECB
8.99 Shick Quatro for women ( already at a savings of 1.80)
(awww wanted to get my brother one but the buy one get one's for men but were cleared)
Used $1 off coupon
=7.99
and got a $3 ECB
so total is.....
23.77 w/o EBCs
savings of 8.81+ $5 in EBCs=$13.81
$5 EBCs will probably go to either milk or cheese and lunch meat
(probably this option since I have coupons for these too.)
Didn't do a rollover today, but that's ok.
(rolling transactions or rollover -using store, manufacturers and EBCs in multiple transactions)
(Extra Care Bucks or EBCs- when using your CVS card you can gain EBCs which is bacically a coupon for anything you want in the store besides:prescriptions, alcohol, gift cards, lottery, money orders, postage stamps, prepaid cards, and tobacco products. You must bring your CVS Extra Care card for these coupons to be valid, but getting a card is free and easy, just ask you cashier for one and fill out the information sheet.)

My first Walgreens trip:
I bought-
2 Lysol Toilet bowl cleaner
4 breakfast bowls
1 Dial body wash
$24 and change dropped down to 10.94 = savings of $13 and change!
There might be something to this couponing thing.
