CVS Scenarios - week of 10/11

I wasn't overly excited by many of the deals at CVS this week, although I do plan to pick up a few things. There are a few items on a 3-day sale, so you might want to head out to CVS early in the week to take advantage of those.

Transaction #1
1 - Halloween Nylon Treat Bag
2 - 4-in-1 Pumpkin Carving Tool

Total $4.97. Earn $.99 and $3.98 in ECBs.

Transaction #2
1 - Gillette Fusion Razor
2 - Gillette Shave Gel

-$4 Gillette Razor mfg coupon
-$1 Gillette Shave Gel mfg coupon
-$1 Gillette Shave Gel mfg coupon
-$1 Gillette Shave Gel CVS coupon from $100 coupon book
-$1 Gillette Shave Gel CVS coupon from $100 coupon book

Total $7.18. Pay with $4.97 in ECBs and $2.21 OOP. Earn $5 ECBs.

Transaction #3
2 - Rice Krispies Treats
2 - Mini Quaker Granola Bars
4 - Fruit by the Foot (pictured, but not listed on 2/$5 sale)

-$.50 $.50/2 Fruit by the Foot coupon
-$.50 $.50/2 Fruit by the Foot coupon

Total $19. Pay with $5 ECBs from Transaction #2 and $14 OOP. Earn $5 ECBs.

The treats deal I was hoping to find some Rice Krispies treats coupons or some Quaker granola coupons. I will do a search and look for those. Have you seen any? Leave me a comment if you know of coupons out there for this deal. For my son this year, we have to send a snack for him each day and these treat size items are just the right size.

Total $21.18 OOP with $5 ECBs left.
