I am so glad you did so well this morning. I went to a different CVS this morning closer to home. Well they were out of three things I wanted but the manager wrote me rain checks after looking in the back. This store had a neat idea that I have not seen. In the front of the store were 6 of the items that were free with the extra bucks listed on the back page of the circular. They used these big over stock make up bins (the manager shared this as he went to look for things I was asking for) and placed them where you could see. He said this was better than people looking all over the store. I agreed with him, kind of one stop shopping.

I was there a long time and thought about making more than one transaction, but the coupon spitter gave me my first $10/$50 coupon so I needed to fill the cart. So after all the ECB items and some milk, first aid cream, and CVS tissue, my OOP was $18.12, but the best thing was I have $46.00 of ECB to spend next week or go back again tomorrow!

Happy Thanksgiving to All....

It was the same at my CVS, all the Free items were on end caps right there ready to get, it was so easy and there were only 2 of us the store with Coupons.

My CVS had that too but I didn't see them until I went to check out. So when I went to the Soleil razors there were none on the shelf, and a few other shelves were empty of items I wanted. I figured oh well and went through the store, I saw a Soleil razor just lying there and I was so excited and quick grabbed it..Then I went to check out and there they were, a whole bin of the razors, (Soliel and Quatro) the headphones, a about 4 or 5 other items. I guess they figured it would be easier than to have people ransack the store

All in all I got out of there with everything I wanted except for the Garnier facial things, but that is ok I was just going to get them because they were free.

So tell me about the coupon spitter outter giving you a q for $10/$50. Do they randomly do that or do you have to spend a certain amount?? I didn't even know they did that
