CVS
I am in a bit of a pickle. I guess you can say I am burned out on shopping at CVS. Yes, you heard it right...I am tired of drugstore shopping. Maybe it is because I have built up such a nice stockpile or maybe because I just don't want to take the time anymore.
With that being said, I added up my ECB's today and I have $56! I told my husband how much I had and his response was "But that is not real money anyway". I then had to go into COUPONING 101 to explain that I could go into CVS and buy anything I wanted with that $56.
My ECB's are getting ready to hit the 30 day point. That means I really do need to use them. I pulled out a few rainchecks and plan on using those. So my question is do I take a break from CVS or do I just carry a few over and not do as many deals. I don't know if it just me but it seems like the deals just are not there as frequently as before. I like the "buy something for $5, use a $1 MQ, and get $5 ECB's back.
Anyone else feel the same as I do?

ReplyDeleteJudi, CVS "lost me" last year sometime. To me, the deals are not like they used to be and I don't care about spending x amount to get back a measly $5, etc. I would just rather go to the dollar tree or Publix and get a tube of toothpaste for just about nothing with a coupon then deal with CVS now. I guess I have a "bad CVS attitude" now. I used to go EVERY Sunday for years. Now, I hardly ever go in.
ReplyDeleteWHen I have bucks to burn, I pick out things like milk, eggs, cereal, etc. or something I would not normally spend $$$ on like maybe an expensive brand of hair product --- I know they carry some of the nicer brands like Sebastian and Silk Therapy, etc. I just burn them and get rid of them on things that would cost me "real" money at another store. Even if they are high on the milk or food, I am still saving my real money buy getting it with the bucks.
Good luck with your decision!
