8/28/10 CVS Trip

Hubby was out of Diet Mt. Dew so I stopped in and picked up some on sale. The list of "Freebies" this week is piling up!

(6) 2-liter Diet Mt. Dew @ 3/$4 = $8.00
(2) Almond Snickers @ 2/$1 = $1.00

Total Before Coupons: $9.00

Coupons Used:

(1) $7.99 ECB
(1) $.50/2 Pretzel M&Ms or Snickers (from red machine) = $.50

Total Amount of Coupons: $8.49
Total OOP After Taxes and Coupons: $.11 (not sure why it was only $.11 unless it has to do with no tax on food products or something)
Savings: 99%

Ordering Large Quantities

If you are interested in purchasing large quantities of items that are on sale, speak to the manager at the store. Most, if not all, will be willing to order the number of items you need so you don't delete all of their inventory. I know that I'm printing and saving the SOBE BOGO coupons for the CVS sale next week. I talked to a FANTASTIC CVS manager this week who said she would be happy to order any flavor and as many as I would like. I'm going to see her this coming week to place my order.
