CVS: That's What Happens When I Wait Until The Last Minute

Well, I hadn't made it to CVS yet this week and there were some pretty good deals that I really didn't want to miss out on.  So, I finished making my list and gathering up my coupons.  I was sort of expecting for them to be out of half of  the items when I got there since I had waited until 7pm Saturday night to shop.  When I got there, I found that they had taken all of the signs down, and were beginning to put up the signs for tomorrow's sale.  Because of this I was having to scan every item at the price scanner to see if I was picking up the correct item.  A few of the things I grabbed rang up the correct price, but some of them were ringing up for a different price.  Cheryl over at Simply CVS has posted about Sunday's sale actually beginning late Saturday evening, and the items will ring up the lower price of the two sales.  This was happening with a few of my items, and because of this I wasn't sure if I would get my extra bucks.  They were not really items that I needed so I didn't want to risk it.

I did grab two items that I did need while I was there.  I really wanted to get some of the cheap Stove Top, but my store was all out.  They did have some of the Kraft BBQ Sauce that was on sale for $0.99.  This is not my preferred brand, but I am down to my very last bottle of BBQ sauce, and I had 2 $0.75/1 coupons that were expiring tomorrow, so I put back everything else on my list and only ended up buying 2 bottles of the Kraft BBQ Sauce.  My total after coupons was $0.48, and I didn't even use any of my ECBs.  I had $12.99 from my last trip, and my Quarterly ECBs printed tonight, so that was another $1.50.  I will have all of those to use on my next trip.  I also got a $4/$20 coupon by email yesterday that will expire tomorrow.  I intended to use it tonight, but I will try to gather up some coupons and go back tomorrow so it doesn't go to waste.

That was about it.  Nothing too exciting to report. I didn't even think it was worth busting out my camera over.   If you guys went to CVS, I hope you had better luck.  I would love to hear about it.
