I Love CVS!

So I had $5.00 in Extra Care Bucks (ECB's) to spend at CVS that expired today, I just couldn't let that happen! (Although most will take them after they expire) So, the only thing I knew there was a sale on that I had coupons handy for were the Soy Joy bars. They are $1.00 each on sale, and when you buy 4 of them, out prints a $4.00 ECB to use on your next order, so essentially they are FREE, but I had two coupons each coupon was for Buy 1 Get 1 FREE. So that takes up $2 of my $5.00 that I have to spend so that I do not spend any OOP (Out of Pocket) Money. I have been wanting one of those Air Wick air freshners that hang on your wall, I keep the coupons in my purse and have been searching for them to go on sale or clearance, so I checked that, nope, usual price $10, not spending that. Lady's last week told me that Target had some of these clearanced down to $4.75 and we have $4.00 coupons on them so I would have gotten one for .75 cents, but they were not clearanced at the Target I went to. Ok back to my CVS. So I have 4 Soy Joy bars, saw some very comfy fluffy socks for $1 each, grabbed 3 of them, so now we are at $5.00. I go to the register, hand all items over, my B1G1 coupons, my total is only $4.63, but I want to use my $5.00 bucks, so I grab a candy bar, give her my $5.00 bucks coupon, and end up paying .65 cents out of pocket for 3 pairs of fluffy socks, 4 soy joy bars, and some m&m's, and at the bottom of my receipt, there it is, $4 more dollars in ECB's, my coupon for $4.00 off of my next order!. Excellent! Besides the $4 ECB's I just got, I still have another $15 in Extra Bucks that expire in 3 days, so I hope they have a nice sale on something in this Sunday's ad so that I can use my Bucks to get more bucks!
