CVS Deals of the Week 8/31-9/6

>> Thursday, September 4, 2008



I skipped going to CVS last week. There just weren't any deals to draw me in. This week, however, I saw some items I could use so off I went. I only had $5 ECBs and my OOP was higher this week than it normally is, however I earned quite a few ECBs for future use.


Here's the breakdown:

1 Sudacare Shower Tabs $1.25(clearance 75% off)

4 Suave Body Wash $8

2 Dawn Ultra $1.98

2 Colgate Total $5.98

1 BC Headache Powder $1.29

1 Covergirl Wetslicks $5.99

2 Johnson's Buddies Soaps $2.38


Qs Used

50 cents off Dawn

$1 off Johnson's Buddies

$1 off Colgate Total

$1 off Colgate Total

B1G1 Suave Body Wash

B1G1 Suave Body Wash

$5 ECBs


Total OOP $14.18

Total ECBs $13.28


I really messed this one up too. I went in planning to use the B1G1 Cover Girl lip product for the wetslicks. They would not accept it and I didn't have my $1 off CG product Q with me since it never occured to me they wouldn't accept the B1G1 Q. I know I could have had a lower OOP by doing multiple transactions but that's not something I'm comfortable doing at this point. Oh, well, this is a learning process for me.

Menu Planning Monday

>> Monday, September 1, 2008

One of the best ways to save money is to plan out your menu for the week so you won't be tempted to run through a drive thru or order take out. Both are big budget busters. I plan my menu based on items I already have on hand and things I know are on sale that week. Here's my menu for this week:



Monday: Grilled Turkey Burgers & Tater Tots

Tuesday: Teriyaki Stir Fry Pork & Veggies w/ brown rice

Wednesday: Creamy Chicken & Rice w/ raw veggies on the side

Thursday: Pasta Marinara & salad

Friday: Italian Roast Beef Sandwiches, Turkey Joes, Veggie Pasta Salad & chips(We have family coming in for a weekend visit.)

Saturday: Eat out or grill out(still need to discuss plans with the visiting family)

Sunday: Leftovers
