CVS Trip 6/20

After trying to get to CVS all week, I finally made it late on Wednesday.  I had some ECBs that were expiring because I haven't been finding any deals at the store to get recently. 

We are totally out of Excedrin which is a staple in this house and since it was recalled, we haven't been able to get anymore.  I saw that CVS had a B1G1 deal on their brand of medicine so I wanted to get two of the CVS Brand headache medicine. 

I went to the pain relief aisle and found two different kinds but the one didn't have a sign.  My mom went to use the price checker and the whole system rebooted so you couldn't check the pricing!!  Strike one! 

The woman at the register told my mother that they were both on sale so I grabbed two of the one that they had two left.  I rang up at the self check out register and they were not on sale.  Strike 2! 

Nothing better than standing in a full store with a line and the stuff isn't the right one.  The woman wouldn't cancel the sale and told me to get the one that I wanted.... umm, that was the one that I wanted... still confused on how it isn't on sale.  I ran back through the store and grabbed the one of the other Excedrin like medicine and had to stand and find any other medicine that was close in price.  I gave up and grabbed the Ibuprofen which was $2.99 so it would be free.

The cashier was guarding my self check out machine (with my mom standing next to her looking as confused as I felt) and a line of other customers wondering what the heck I was doing.  She finally voided the other two medicines that weren't on sale.  Then I rang up my two medicines but the free medicine didn't come off.  I pressed the finish and pay to see if it came off.  Luckily, it did.  I used my $2.50 ECBs and spent $1.09 OOP.

It was a rough trip but I made it out with medicine and only spending $1.09!  Thank goodness I didn't have to try to go again because I never would have made it!!  Hope you guys are finding some good deals at the drugstores and doing better than I am.  Since I don't have any ECBs, I am probably out of the game until a really good deal comes along.  Here is crossing my fingers that we see one soon!!
