CVS Scenarios - week of 9/12

There are definitely some deals that I would like to pick up this week at CVS. I was just checking my e-mail in hopes of another $/$$ coupon, but no such luck. Remember when you used to find them in the Sunday paper and in magazines? I miss those days. I get them so rarely through the coupon printer and e-mail, I just wish there was another way. I need to call CVS, as I have an issue where the extra care card number isn't correct when I use my phone number - even though it still has my name and everything - it creates some havoc when I check out with a mix of ECBs from using my card and my phone number, as the register wants to reject them. Maybe when I call, I can ask how to get more $/$$ offers.

Transaction #1
1 - Alive Multi Vitamin

-$1 Alive IP

Total $8.99, earn $9.99 ECBs.

Transaction #2
1 - Nivea Men Body Wash
1 - Brach's Candy Corn
4 - Lysol Airwick Aqua Mist
1 - Arizona Tea Gallon

-$1 Nivea Men mfg coupon
-BOGO Airwick Aqua Mist mfg coupon
-BOGO Airwick Aqua Mist mfg coupon
-$1 Airwick Aqua Mist IP
-$1 Airwick Aqua Mist IP

Total $10.20. Pay with $9.99 ECBs from Transaction #1 and $.21 OOP. Earn $4.99, $.99 and $5 ECBs.

Transaction #3
2 - Purex Laundry Detergent
1 - Gillette Body Wash
1 - Gillette Deodorant

-$.35 Purex Mfg coupon
-$.35 Purex Mfg coupon
-FREE Gillette Body Wash WYB Deodorant

Total $11.27. Pay with $4.99, $.99 and $5 ECB from Transaction #2 and $.29 OOP. Earn $4 and $1 ECB.

Total OOP for the day is $9.49 with $5 ECBs to roll, for a net "cost" of $4.49 for about $44 in product, or a savings of about 90%.

There are some other deals that I am considering and questions I have.

There is a $1 Purex Naturals printable and I wonder if those are included on the Purex deal. I might build an alternate transaction assuming that they are included.

I am considering doing the Olay Moisturizer/Olay Regenerist Anti Aging Eye Roller deal - there is a coupon for a free Eye Roller wyb 2 Moisturizers, there are $1 moisturizer coupons and there is a $6 ECB on the Eye Roller, so in the end, you could get 2 Moisturizers and the Eye Roller for $11.98 after ECBs.

My husband likes the ProGlide Razor, I can't find any coupons, but I might see what the cost is of the razor and refills to see about doing that deal for the $5 ECBs. Of course, if it is too much, I might just have to wait to get a coupon.
