I did my bi-weekly shopping trip yesterday at the 2nd Loop/Cashua CVS store and took the winner of the 1,000 fan contest with me. She ended up with $100 worth of stuff for FREE and was able to follow me and learn a few things (hopefully) from me! I enjoyed it and so did Celeste, our favorite cashier! After her shopping trip I continued on to my shopping lists so here is the rundown:
Total Saved $239.67
Total Spent $9.26
Total ECBs left $22
= $12.74 PROFIT!
Here is what I got:
4 CVS paper plates
1 CVS Plastic Cups
4 Covergirl Lash Extend
4 Cover Girl Lip Sticks
4 Softsoap Nutra Serum body wash
4 Colgate Pro Clinical toothpaste
1 Caliber Compass (raincheck)
2 Wheat Thins
2 CVS Pocket Pack tissues
1 CVS Cotton Rounds travel pack
4 Advil 50 ct
1 Colgate total
3 Oral B Advantage Toothbrushes
1 Starbucks French Roast
1 Easter candy clearance filler
1 CVS Green Bag Tag
3 Recees 8 packs
1 Crest 3D Rinse
4 Carefree Liners
9 Schick travel razors
1 Colgate $0.77
18 Hersheys milk chocolate
18 Hersheys dark chocolate
Celeste was great and I enjoyed the shopping trip. Next time I'm in Florence, I will certainly shop CVS 2nd Loop/Cashua so she can help me out. I wish all the CVS cashiers were as good as she is. -Alicia-
ReplyDeletei understand buying things on sale.. cause I do, but I dont understand buying things you really dont need or use. It just takes up needed space in the house. what in the world could u possibly do with all the things u buy that u dont need?
ReplyDeleteHonestly, if it is going to "make" me money I am going to get it if I use it or not. I have plenty of friends and family that appreciate the gift baskets that I put togeather for them. I also make monthly donations to the local food bank and free clinic. Of course, if you are not a stockpiler then you may not understand how stockpiling works. I keep plenty of what we use on a daily basis on hand in our home. When things get out of control and I have way more than what I have space for, I will have a yard sale. I love what I do and it feels good to take care of my family and help others in need.
ReplyDeleteHow do you get by on the one card per household limitations? Isnt using more than one card considered fraud??How is this cvs manager letting you do this?You must really know this guy.
ReplyDeleteYes, I do use more than one card. I use other family members cards that do not live with me. They prefer that I do the shopping and can then shop my stockpile! LOL! Its a great tradeoff!
ReplyDeleteI use other family memembers cards too that don't live with me. All I can say is: Be generous with things that you get for free & donate to those less fortunate.
