CVS: Back to School Savings




Today I purchased the 16 items pictured above, 14 of which were school supplies, for only 22 cents. I did this in only 2 transactions because I had $10.99 in ECBs from last week. Here is how I split up the transactions.

1st transaction

Buy:
(2) CVS 1 Subject Notebooks $.99 ea
(3) Paper Mate Grip Pens $.99 ea
(2) Pocket Folders $.05 ea
(1) CVS Scissors $2.99 ea
(2) CVS Glues $.99 ea

Use:
-$10 ECB
Total OOP=$.04

Get Back ECB for: 2.99, 1.98, 1.98, and 2.97


2nd transaction

Buy:
(1) CVS Scissors $2.99 ea
(2) CVS 12" Ruler $.99 ea
(1) Pocket Folder $.05 ea
(1) Gillette Fusion Razor $7.99
(1) Tylenol Arthritis $3.99

-$4 off Gillette Fusion Manual or Power Razor PG 6/07
-$2 off Tylenol Arthritis RP 5/17
-$2.99 ECB from 1st transaction
-$2.97 ECB from 1st transaction
-$1.98 ECB from 1st transaction
-$1.98 ECB from 1st transaction
-$.99 ECB from last week
Total OOP=$.20

Get Back ECB for: 2.99, 1.98, 4.00, and 3.00

So now I have $11.97 in ECBs to spend next week and a great start on school supplies list for Back to School.
