If you have attended a coupon class then you know that I like to do my shopping at CVS on Saturday when family allows. Well, to give you an idea of what I do, I thought I would share my shopping trip today. I also wanted you all to see that I don't always walk out of the store paying close to nothing and that I am a human!
I went in wanting to do the Maalox deal, Electrosol deal, Crest rinse and P&G deal. As usual, they were out of a few things so I had to make a few changes to my shopping list. Thank goodness for the pen, paper and calculator! I found out that the Mylanta had been recalled so I had to change to the Gas-x instead (which was more expensive, thus making my out of pocket a bit higher). They were also out of electrosol so I just took it out of my scenerio.
I started out with $11 in ECBs
