CVS Scenarios - week of 8/29

I'm a few days late on posting this, but better late than never. There weren't any strike me type deals this week, but after some coupons, there are some that are pretty good.

Next week, I hope to be back to posting regular deals. This week, I'm not sure of actual prices, so this is a rather "loose" scenario.

Tums - buy one get one 50% off this week
- the prices start just under $5 at my store.
Buy 2
-$5 $5/2 Tums CRT
-$1 Tums IP (on RedPlum.com)
-$1 Tums IP (on RedPlum.com)

Should make them about $.50 for two bottles.

Oral B Toothbrushes - on deal, spend $10 get $5 ECBs
- the prices start at $2.99
Buy 4
-BOGO Oral B Toothbrush mfg coupon
-BOGO Oral B Toothbrush mfg coupon

Should make them about $1 for the 4 toothbrushes after ECBs. Others have mentioned using a $.50 coupon for each of the ones you buy - I generally haven't had luck with that and am not really sure that it is right, but if it worked, that would mean the 4 toothbrushes would be free.

Phillips I-Pod Earphones - free after ECB (only through Tuesday)

So, if I purchase all of this in one transaction, my total would be $13.49 OOP and I would earn $11.99 in ECBs, for a total of $1.50 after ECBs.
