CVS Scenarios - week of 11/25

I am thinking that CVS pulled out a bunch of different regional ads for this week. As I looked at other posts and their coupon match-ups, there were several more things available in their ads than in mine. I am feeling a little ho-hum about the deals in my ad. The 20% off shopping pass is nice, but it always seems like there are only a few items that it applies to that I need.

There is a coupon on CVS website for $2/3 American Greetings, but I am guessing that it is already depleted. It keeps saying that I have already printed it the limit amount, but I know that I have not. I will try again tomorrow, to see if it is reset. It would be a great way to sweeten the card offer this week.

Transaction #1
3 - American Greetings Cards ($1.99 or more, per the ad)

-$1 $1/3 American Greetings IP

Total $4.97, earn $3 ECBs. Of course, with the $2 coupon at CVS.com, this would be only $2.97 OOP.

Transaction #2
5 - Tide
1 - Dawn

-$2 $2/3 Tide mfg coupon
-$1 $1/2 Tide mfg coupon
-$.50 Dawn mfg coupon

Total $27.19, pay with $3 ECB and $24.19 OOP. Earn $10 ECBs.

For the trip, the total OOP is $29.16 (or $27.16 with the other coupon), with $10 ECBs to roll for $36.66 in product at sale prices. A savings of about 38%.
