8/8--My CVS and Albertson's Trip

CVS:

Shelf Price:  $50.95
Sale Price:   $41.95
Price After Coupons:  $31.95
Price after $15 ECB's: 16.95 +tax  (67% savings)  --this was less than the sale price of just the medicine!
I had about $17 remaining on a gift card from a prescription transfer, so after that I paid just $0.43 and I got back $12 ECB's ($5 from the meds, $3 from Huggies, and $4 from Razor)--Plus I am going to submit the Schick Rebate I told you about to get the full $8.97 cost of the razor back, making this a big moneymaker!  Hurry!  It must be purchased by 8/18 and received by 9/1.


Albertson's:

Total Shelf Price:  $67.24--4 yogurts not pictured
Sale Price:  $41.70
Total Paid After Coupons:  $15.47  (77% savings)


A few things to note:  I told you about the ConAgra Rebate-purchase $10 receive $25 worth of coupons.  Well, I had forgotten about it too, until I noticed that Albertson's and Tom Thumb were both having a sale on their products, then I remembered about it and realized that the purchases have to be made by 8/15 and it must be mailed by 9/1--I'll be getting those ready to mail later.

So at Albertson's the products are all 10 for $10--be careful because some included do not count toward the rebate.  When you buy 10, you get three free (basically buy 13 and $3 will be deducted at the register).  Tom Thumb has a similar 10 for $10 sale with an in-ad *manufacturer* coupon to get $3 off when you buy 10 products.  I clipped it and took it over to Albertson's and the self check out accepted it with no issues.

Also, if you decide to do this, check the sale ad rack at the front door.  I picked up a paper full of *manufacturer* coupons (you can use these anywhere), and the one on the very bottom right said "Get FREE fruit snacks when you buy 5 Hunts products."  Woohoo!  I was already planning to do that!

All said, I think I had a pretty good shopping trip!  I hope you guys are all getting great deals too.  I would love to hear about them.
