You can see the full CVS matchup with coupons listed HERE!

There is a super easy MM deal this week at CVS.

Gillette Fusion Shaving Gel (travel size) is producing the $2 ECB! My store had it priced at 2.37 – $1 MQ (10/30 PG) = $1.37! Then I earned the $2 ECB

Plus I just want to remind everyone that CVS rainchecks can be budget savers. I have several pepsi rainchecks from their super bowl sales. Buy 6 12 packs for $20 and earn $10 ECBS back. That works out to 6 12-packs for $10!!

We were out of a soda and with no decent sales in site this was a budget saver deal for me!! Thank You CVS!

• There are two super easy deals at CVS this week!
• 2 Jif Peanut Butter (1 missing from picture) 2/$5 – $0.55 IP (no longer available) = $3.90
• 3 $0.99 Hallmark Cards
• – $5 ECB
• -$1.87 (+ tax) OOP
• Earned $3 (Jif) and $3 (Hallmark) in ECBS, making the cards free and the PB only $0.45 each!

Even without the coupons, the Jif is $1 each after ECBS!

Plus Smucker’s jams, spreads, jelly, etc. are part of the same deal. They are also priced at $2.50 each, use  the $1/2 MQ (RP 11/6) and you have $0.50 Jam!

If your store is out of it.. grab a rain check, CVS rain checks do not expire!

I need to get back to CVSing.  It’s one of the best coupon games out there with their generous ECB expiration date and the ability to roll deals. 

I received a glorious $5/25 CVS email Q today, which was awesome since I let my $5/30 one from last week expire on Sunday. <—

I had big plans that involved 12 packs of diet coke and using my zyrtec raincheck…. Unfortunately they had all coke products in stock EXCEPT diet coke.  Seriously they are ALWAYS out of stock of the “regular diet” soda.  I have half dozen rainchecks for either diet Pepsi or diet coke stashed away…

And then of course the zyrtec was still out of stock. <—Hopefully they get more soon! I have coupons to use!

So luckily I took my own advice and had a couple back up plan ideas!

I also had a $3.50 in ECBs for the 2nd quarter and $1 ECB for using my bag tag.

This is what my order looks like:

• 3 Nutrigrain $2.50
• Complete Contact Solution $7.99
• CVS Pull Ups $5.99 <—Raincheck
• -5/25 Email Q
• -$4.50 Ecbs
• Total $19.16 OOP
• Earned $7.99 ECB (complete) & $4 (Pull Ups)

So this trip “cost” me under $12 factoring in the ECBs used and earned.  Not bad for 2 packs of Diapers and 3 boxes of nutrigrain bars.

What did you end up buying at CVS this week?
