I had wanted to get to CVS this week and get some of the fun specials that they had going on but it didn't look like it was going to happen. I finally got out of the house after 9:30 on Saturday night so I was cutting it close even with a 24 hour store :) I wasn't really sure what I was going to get at the store but I had the $10 ECBs burning a hole in my pocket!!!
Well, here is what I got...
I used lots of the great coupons that I got out of the red machine matched with a few manufacturers coupons. All of the overage, I used to get the Kleenex that I needed. I had an issue with the first transaction and I had to redo the whole thing and add more to cover the overage. Then, I finally got the second transaction figured out and I was just starting, when the person at the self check out next to me clashed carts with me a few times trying to get his cart up to the register. In the process, I saw some change on the ground. I rang up my transaction and got all my coupons rang in and I saw that the change was still on the ground and the customers were all gone. I picked up the change and it was $0.16. It seemed like fate because my total was $0.14 so it covered the cash I needed :) Gotta love when someone is watching out for you and paying for the CVS purchases for you!!!
I didn't end up using the $10 ECBs because at the last minute before I left the house, my husband told me that he really wanted Coke so I saved the money to use for Coke instead of the practical toilet paper that I was going to buy :) I guess I know what I am going to be doing on Sunday morning!!
Total OOP $0.05
