CVS Circular Ad 8/30 – 9/5 Scenarios

  • Written by gjee
  • Posted August 30, 2009 at 4:16 am

To help you with your CVS trips, here are a few scenarios.


Transaction (RECOMMENDED)
$6.99 Glade Fragrance Collection Scented Reed Diffuser or Soy Candle
$4.99 Sensodyne Toothpaste
$4.99 Aquafresh Toothpaste 
$3.29 Edge Infused Shaving Cream

Subtotal: $20.26

Coupons:

- $2/$10 Oral Readyfill booklet
- $3 Glade Fragrance Collection
- $1 Aquafresh
- $1 Sensodyne
- $2 Edge CVS
- $1 Edge cvs CRT. $1 Edge mq, or $.75 Edge q

= $6.26 + tax
ECB Earn: $12.99 ($6.99 Glade, $3 Sensodyne, $3 Aquafresh)
Profit: $6.73


Transaction #1
$6.99 Glade Fragrance Collection Scented Reed Diffuser or Soy Candle
$4.99 Clairol Natural Instinct
$4.99 Aquafresh Toothpaste (or Sensodyne)
$3.29 Edge Shaving Cream

Subtotal: $20.26

Coupons:
- $4/$20 Readyfill
- $3 Glade Fragrance Collection
- $4 Clairol natural instinct q p&g 8/2/09 
- $1 Aquafresh
- $2 Edge CVS
- $1 Edge cvs CRT. $1 Edge mq, or $.75 Edge

= $6.26 + tax
ECB Earn: $11.99 ($6.99 Glade, $2 Clairol, $3 Aquafresh)
Profit: $5.73

Transaction #2
$4.99 Sensodyne (or aquafresh)
$5 Dove Hair Product ($5 ECB wyb $15) 
$5 Dove Hair Product 
$5 Dove Hair Product 
$1.69 CVS Hand Soap

Subtotal: $21.68

Coupons:
- $4/$20 Readyfill
- $1 Sensodyne
- $1 Dove Hair expires 8/31
- $1 Dove Hair expires 8/31
- $1 Dove Hair expires 8/31
- $1.69 CVS Hand Soap

= 11.99 + tax
ECB Earn: $8
Cost: $3.99

Summary: Profit of $1.74

Note: If you do partake in garage sales, you can sell the Dove Shampoo for at least $2 each so even if the transaction isn’t a profit now, it will definitely be later. Also, their Intense Therapy Conditioner is amazing. It rivals my $20+ Frederic Fekkai products.

Also, if you don’t to buy the Clairol Natural Instinct hair dye, then I recommend 2 boxes of Absolutely Divine Cookies. They’re currently $5 for 2 boxes and you can use the CRT Absolutely Divine coupons that always prints out. This means:

Transaction #1 Cookie Alternative

$6.99 Glade Fragrance Collection Scented Reed Diffuser or Soy Candle
$2.50 Absolutely Divine Cookies
$2.50 Absolutely Divine Cookies
$4.99 Aquafresh Toothpaste (or Sensodyne)
$3.29 Edge Shaving Cream

Subtotal: $20.27

Coupons:
- $4/$20 Readyfill
- $3 Glade Fragrance Collection
- $1 Absolutely Divine CRT
- $1 Absolutely Divine CRt
- $1 Aquafresh
- $2 Edge CVS
- $1 Edge cvs CRT. $1 Edge mq, or $.75 Edge

= $7.27 + tax
ECB Earn: $11.99 ($6.99 Glade, $2 Absolutely Divine, $3 Aquafresh)
Profit: $4.72

I must say, the Absolutely Divine cookies are pretty good and definitely worth paying $1 for 2 boxes.

Mommies Edition Freebies Friday 8/28

  • Written by gjee
  • Posted August 27, 2009 at 6:56 am

Sorry for my lack of freebies post! To make up for it, here they are a day early! =)

FREE Sample of Enfamil (baby formula) HERE

FREE Enfamil Breastfeeding Support Kit
I ordered this a few weeks ago for my roommate and it came with lots of samples & nursing stuff. I highly recommend!

venom_energy_black

Free Venon Energy Drink when you buy one
I know this one is random but I thought some mommies could use a little boost during their hectic days! Plus, they were giving these out for free today on campus and they were pretty good so I thought I’d share. If you’ve ever had an AMP energy drink, they taste similiar.

PlanningFamily
My roommate actually told me about this site. She said they send out diaper coupons & formula samples pretty often. Their site is also pretty neat. They have articles of top baby names from every year, due date calendars, and a lot more. It seems worth it to sign up just for the coupons though!

General_HealthySavings_QualityHealth-family-body

Quality Health
This is a HUGE site about all the different ways you can improve your health. I first found it when I was researching Alzheimer’s disease for my grandmother but they have everything you can possibily imagine. I”ve been a member for 3 years now and they do send pretty good samples – not that often though but often enough. This page is offering deals and samples just for families so I thought it would be useful. This page is just for general samples.

CVS Circular Ad 8/16 – 8/22 Update

  • Posted August 16, 2009 at 11:34 am

CVS Circular Ad 8/16 – 8/22 Update

CVS Tampons are $1.89 and earns $1.89 ECB= FREE

Confirmed in Southern California and Nationwide.

Areas Uncomfirmed: Northern California, Florida, Santa Barbara, and Nevada. These areas currently all have different ADs, thats why they’re unconfirmed.

Sobe is currently listed as $1.99 in ALL of the ads but it has been ringing up as $1.59 in Southern California and Nationwide. Use the B1G1 Sobe Coupon to make Sobe COMPLETELY free this week! Just pay $.10 for CRV.

The Ice Breakers gum deal for the California Ads have been known to not print ECBs for some flavors even though they’re all marked. This isn’t consistent since I bought the 2 flavors last night and they both produced ECB so YMMV. Just make sure to check before you leave the store.

Neutrogena and Clean & Clear acne – Buy $15, earn $5.
- $5 off Clean & Clear Blackhead Eraser
- $5 off Clean & Clear Advance Acne Control Kit
- $2 Clean & Clear Product
-$3 Clean & Clear Advantage Acne Control Kit or clean & clear blackhead eraser ss 8/2/09
-$1 Clean & Clear product, any ss 8/2/09

Acne Free, Regenetresse, Wrinkle Free (excludes acne free cleansers & terminator) get $5 limit 2
-$3 Acne Free clear skin system, sensitive skin system, severe to clear system, etc v 7/26/09
