I just got back from CVS shopping this morning. Here's what I came home with:

2 St. Ives Apricot Scrub on sale $2.99
- used 2 $2.00/1 coupon
= .99 each (1.98 for 2)

1 Clairol Natural Instincts Hair Color on sale $5.99

1 Shick Quattro Titanium Razon $8.99

2 Bottles Dawn dish washing liquid (Buy one get one free) $1.99

I also had $2.00 in Extra Care Bucks plus a coupon for $10 off a $50 purchase. There is a machine at the front of the store that you should always check by swiping your CVS card. It will print coupons off of products and usually once per week will give you a coupon for money off a purchase. I usually receive the $5/$25.

Grand total = $27.32
Extra Care Bucks received = $17.00
Total saved = $36.49

Extra care bucks can be spent just like cash. The fun of shopping at CVS is that you can use your extra care bucks to buy products that are on sale or that you will give you more extra care bucks. I was a little low this week, so I spent more cash than I usually do, but I will be all set for next week with $17.00 in Extra Care bucks and probably won't spend any more out of pocket.
