CVS Trip 11/7

Hello everyone.  It has been quite a while since I have been able to post.  My husband's back is still messed up, and I have a sink full of dirty dishes and a garage floor full of clean cloths to fold, but what better time to jump back into blogging, because I honestly don't want to do any of that stuff. =/

I had to go to CVS today because I had $12 in Extra Bucks that were about to expire, and I had a $5/$30 purchase coupon that I got by email this past week that was expiring today.  I have not been to CVS in a few weeks because I have thought that their Extra Bucks offers have been lacking.  Honestly, there still were not very many to choose from this week, but they happened to be for things I actually needed, so that's always a plus.  There were a few other great sale prices as well, and I was able to stock up on some cleaning supplies.

Here is what I came home with:

Shelf Price:  $50.42
Sale Price:   $30.43
Price Paid After Coupons and $12 ECBs:  $6.67 with tax and I received $8 in ECB's to use next time.
That's an 87% savings!

Here is the breakdown:
--The Finish and Lysol were part of a promotion where you spend $15 (before coupons) on specific products and you get $5 ECBs.  The Finish were on sale for $3, which is half off to begin with, and I used some $0.75/1 coupons from coupons.com.  The Lysol were on sale 2 for $5.  I had a $1/2 Lysol from I think it was the 10/17 SS.  I also brought the $0.35/1 Clorox coupon from this morning's paper by mistake.  Oh well...
--The Noxema was on sale for $4.49 and giving back $3 ECBs.  I did not have a coupon for it.
--The Gain dish liquid is on sale for $0.99.  There were $1/1 coupons in the 10/10 PG to make those free.
--The Xtra detergent was on sale for $1.49.  There were $1/2 coupons in the 10/17 SS, which made them $0.99 each.
--The frap was on sale for $1.50 and I threw it in because I needed a bit more to reach my $30. =)  I'm glad I wasn't planning on drinking it tonight, though, because their coolers were heating instead of cooling and all the drinks were hot.  It is safely stashed in my fridge until morning.

These sale prices began today and will remain in effect until Saturday.  What are you guys getting from CVS this week?

Thank you Cheryl! I just linked this post up. I did not realize you did that every week. I will try to remember to stop by and share and see what everyone else is getting. I always find something I missed. ;)

I had started it a while ago and quit and now I am going to keep it--I'm hoping it catches on. I think it really helps everyone do their best. I wanted to stop back and say thanks for linking up your CVS shopping trip at Simply CVS.
