    Default CVS and Wags Successes!

    Once again I wasn't thrilled with the ad, but figured I wanted to make some of this work, so did my midnight shop.

    CVS Trans #1
    (5) Right Guards $2.99 less $.55 peelies on each = $12.20/5
    (2) Colgates $2.99 less 1 $1.50 IP and 1 $.75 MFQ = $3.73
    Total = $15.93
    Less $14.99 ECB's
    Balance= $.94 that was paid for with GC from Rx transfer
    OOP = $0.00
    Received $14.00 ECB

    CVS Trans #2
    2 boxes of Honey Nut Cheerios less $1.00 IP and 4 boxes of Cheerios less (2) $1.00/2 IP = $16.00
    (4) 12pks of Pepsi = $13.00
    Total $29.00
    Less $14.00 ECB
    Balance = $15.00 that was paid for with GC from Rx transfer
    OOP = $0.00
    Received $13 ECB

    I was going to split up transaction two to pay for pop with cereal ECB's, but didn't want to be left with only $3.00 ECB and since I had the free gift card I paid $0.00 anyway!

    Then I went to Wags
    5 boxes of DeMets Turtles @ $.99 each less 3 $1.50 Q's = $.45/5
    OOP = $.45

    So total OOP for everything was $.45!!! And I still have $14.00 on GC and $13 ECB's

    You know what's funny...I don't really like chocolate! and I bought 10 bags last week with the sale!! Good think my kids like it

    I also saw something funny today - I saw Energizer batteries with a peelie that if you bought any one pack you would receive a 2 liter of Coke free. I started looking at it and saw the expiration date: 12/31/2004!!! Someone posted about the old stock before and the old Q's they have seen, but I almost fell over on that one!

    Great deals...as usual.

    Saving my Coke Qs for next week's $15/$5 back deal. I know I will be swimming in Coke for a long time after.

    I did the GM deal, too and had a hard time trying to fit 12 boxes of cereal to the 7 I had in my pantry.
