CVS Field Trip 5/25

A few of you made it to our CVS field trip, and those who came I'm pretty sure would say it was well worth it. There were some fantastic free after extra care buck deals and coupons to go with them.

However....we did have a hard time finding Clearasil. We found one, which Sky (who is a totally newbie at CVS) was able to claim. Yay Sky! Here is a run down of Sky's transactions for those of you who want to know. *Note...I do not have her receipt so I will not have this down to the penny, but it'll be close enough.

Transaction#1
Clearasil $3.99
-2 Q
=$1.99 oop
Receive $3.99 ECB

Transaction #2
2 boxes of bandaids $5.98
-2 $1/1 Q
=$3.98 (paid with adjusted $3.99ECB from first)
Receive 4 ECB

Transaction #3
Deodorant $3.99
=paid with $4ECB from second
Received $3.99 ECB

Transaction #4
Deodorant #3.99
=paid with $3.99 ECB from third
Received $3.99 ECB

Transaction #5
Playtex Tampons $3.99
Colgate Total $2.99
-$1 Playtex peelie
-$1 Colgate Q
=$4.98
-$3.99 ECB from fourth
= $.99 oop
Received 5 ECB

Transaction #6
Revlon nail polish $3.99
-$1 Revlon Q
=$2.99 paid with $3 ECB from fifth
Received 3 ECB

So...all in all Sky paid $3.00 (and 16 cents I believe with tax) for all of that, and walked out with 5 ECB. I think that is a very respectable first trip.

The other ladies transactions were the same, except they couldn't do the first one because there was no Clearasil. They paid less oop but missed out on a great money maker.

Speaking of missing out. We were so caught up in the moment (and time...it was late) that we forgot to ask for a rain check on the Clearasil. UGH....it about made me sick and I had a hard time falling asleep, partly because of that. Stacie and Alison....I'm sorry:-(

MOST of these items were only on Sale for Sunday and Monday. Please do not go back and try this, it won't work. I don't have my flyer in front of me, but I am pretty sure the only thing left that will be free after extra bucks and coupons is the Colgate Total.

***News Flash*** There is potential $6 money maker IF you can find the right product. Neutragena has a deal this week, purchase two sun care products, get $10ECB. There are small little 1 oz tubes of sunscreen that are found in a fishbowl type container, according to Hot Coupon World...almost anywhere in the store. These little tubes are $1.99...but when you buy two, the 10ECB is printing!!!! We have found one store with evidence they once had the tubes at Bonita Beach Rd and Livingston (they were gone though last night). Every other store we've hit we have not been able to find them. Keep your eyes peeled...and if you find some, PLEASE share the news. It's only limit one, so this deal will only work once for you. We'll let you know if we find them somewhere.

Don't forget to check out the Publix post and comments with updates. I posted an easy link at the top right of the page.

Clipper Chicks will resume their regularly scheduled meeting time and location next Monday. Until then....let us know what kind of great deals you find:-)
