Got $41 Worth Of CVS Goods For $.08! (Here’s How)

AWESOME!! Naturally, I was able to save this much money because I cut every single coupon that comes out on Sunday – AND I use last week’s Extra Reward Bucks. Combining those two forces with this week’s circular sales – I really did AMAZING today.
Ok let’s break it down. I love extreme couponing!

  • Nivea 3.88 (minus 3 coupon)
  • Orbit Gum -1.49 (bought two with a B1G1 Free coupon)
  • Always Pads – B1 Get $1 ERB (Plus $2 off coupon) — note this wasn’t in the circular. I was surprised to find the $1 ERB available for me??
  • Purex Items – 2 for $8 (plus $2 off coupon plus $1 off coupon)
  • Johnson and Johnson – full price (GASP – I needed it though)
  • Cereal – B1G1 Free (plus $.75 off plus $.75 off)

I used $12 in ERB from last week AND a coupon that was emailed to me this week for $5 off of $30.

Which left me to pay a whopping eight cents!

Here’s something I want to point out – I was able to use a coupon on an item that was marked FREE at CVS. So, the cereal was Buy 1 Get 1 Free but I gave them 2 $.75 off coupons and they took it. You can put a coupon on a free item!! I NEVER KNEW THIS BEFORE.

Have you been clipping??

I'm too sensitive...because I really really REALLY got attached to the way we all used to interact w/each other on your old site, Vera. It seems a lot of the "old-timers" flew the coop! I've been w/ya since you first started INO...I think Natalie was just a wee baby. Anyway, this is not a criticism of you or the cool folks that now frequent your site - it's just an "adios", I suppose. It's almost impossible to get people to chat w/you now or answer your questions. I AM over-sensitive because I miss the old days, and the new format makes me feel invisible most of the time or even disliked. And when someone does answer me, I feel so grateful that it's pathetic, LOL! That is indicative that this isn't healthy for me any longer.

I miss the old camaraderie and I'm too attached to something that now makes me feel bad. Anyway, it was a good run overall. :) Take care!!

So sorry you feel this way. I can't control who responds to blog comments. I wish you were happier.

That is absolutely amazing! I have never done that well. I was mad at myself today because I wasn't well enough to leave the house, and I had TONS of great coupons that expired today. Bummer.

I'm interested: do any of your husbands do the coupon thing? Mine loves the savings, but wow does he get impatient and moody if I hand him any to use. (He doesn't do the legwork, clipping, etc - I just ask him, on a very rare occasion, to redeem some if I know he's stopping by the store). I couldn't believe how stressed/irked it made him yesterday. I thought WOW, he really doesn't get how much work I've done over the years. He's been spoiled. He did use some, however, and saved $13.
