deals I’m doing at CVS this week, week of October 14

Ok, getting started a bit late this week, but I have a coupon for a free flu shot that expires tomorrow. I’ve been waiting to use it, because I wanted to combine trips and get some stuff while I was there. But now since the coupon is worth about $30 and it expires tomorrow, I definitely have to go. Looking at the ad, this is what I’m going to do.

Starting out, I have $5 ECBs from a CVS Advisory Panel survey and $1 in ECBs from my quarterly earnings (two Rx).

Going to do first:

Physicians Formula-spend $10, get $7 ECB. Most items are $11-$12. I want new eyeliner and there’s also a $1 off 1 coupon from 8/12 inserts that I probably have in my binder.

Pay about $5 out of pocket, get $7 ECB.

 

Second:

Duracell, spend $15, get $5 ECB. $1 coupons in 9/30 inserts. The AA and AAAs are $4 each.

Buy 4=$16, use four $1 coupons, plus my $7 ECB. Pay $5 for 4 packs of Duracell, get $5 back in ECB.

 

That will be it, will hang on to my $5 ECBs.

Saturday Errand Picks-Lowe’s, Walgreen’s, CVS, Target, DG-freebies!

Yes, I’m doing this post early, I don’t normally do it until Friday night or Saturday morning. But I just got so busy this week and overlooked some deals or didn’t get around to posting them, sorry! Sometimes it’s very slow in trying to find deals, sometimes there are too many to keep track. And some of these deals are good and you may want to do them Friday or Saturday, so as not to miss out.

Lowe’s has a $10 off $50 offer available.

CVS-Physician’s Formula, offering a $7 Extra Care Buck when you buy any Physician’s Formula item. It’s reported to be working on all PF items, even those that are less than $7. NOT clearance items. To make it better, some of the items have a “try me free” rebate form stuck to them as a peelie. Remember that this rebate is only up to $11, so even if you spend more than that, you’ll only get $11 back. And, it’s limit 1 per household, so if you’ve already done it (I have) you may not get your check in the mail. But, there also are $5 off PF coupons spitting out of the magic coupon scanner, I was unfortunately not lucky enough to get one. Still I found a cool eyeliner I wanted to try for $7.89, used the $1 coupon from the 3/20 inserts and got my $7 back. You can stack both coupons if you are lucky enough to get the $5 one.

Target-the 3/13 inserts had $2 coupons for Purex crystals. On the Target website, there is a $1 store printable. Stack the coupons and get the item, currently on sale for $2.99, for FREE! (Locals, I won’t be using my coupons, will bring them on Saturday if anyone wants to run up there Sat. & get them.) Target website will limit you to two prints per computer.

Dollar General-for Saturday only, there is a $5/$20 apparel-only coupon. Good only Saturday. Oops, already said that. But I’ve found Sesame Street licensed apparel there before, for cheap. And I know my friends have found cute things there too–they carry Fisher Price and some Health Tex, I forget what other brands for kids. For adults, think of work t-shirts or stuff like that. They also sell scrubs if you need an extra set or two for your job.

See, that is a LOT of deals, too much to do in one day!
