My CVS Trip for This Week

My CVS Shopping Trip for the Week

Yep, Multiple Transactions and EB Rolling!

This week, I worked several of the CVS deals. As per the usual, I broke my transactions up and rolled the Extra Buck deals into each other. I could have done each EB deal as a separate transaction to save me even more out of pocket expense, but I chose to keep it simple with two transactions. My regular cashier was working and she was excited to see what deals I worked. She also gave me something pretty valuable.. NEXT WEEK'S CIRCULAR!  I will be posting a sneak peak for all of you soon, so check the blog often!

Transaction 1: The Pepsi Products Deal (Buy $20 in participating Pepsi Products, get $10 EB back)

This deal is perfect, because I am planning a party for next month!

I bought:

1 Two-Liter of Mountain Dew for $1

3 of the 12 ct "Fridge Packs" of Various Pepsi Sodas for $10 total

1 Four Pack of Starbucks Iced Frappucino Drinks for $4.99

1 Four Pack of AMP Energy Drinks for $4.99

Total Pre-Tax : $20.98  (I had to buy a $1 Two-Liter to work the deal. You HAVE to spend $20 on the products, pre-tax. Since I bought the energy drinks and coffee drinks at $4.99 each, my total without the 2-liter was only $19.98. Yes, that was done on purpose by the masterminds behind the CVS deals. To get this set of EB's, if you put a $4.99 item in the deal, you have to buy something extra to make it work!)

Remember that $10 in EB from last week? Apply it here!

Total out of pocket after $10 EB from last week = $10.98 (plus tax)

AND I got another $10 in EB back! To use on the next transaction....
