Summer Clearance at CVS

CVS has their summer merchandise clearanced to 90$ off! I picked up Disney flip flops for the kids for $.49 each. My store also had Huggies Little Swimmers marked down to $.89 each. If you use the $1.50/1 Huggies coupons here these would be better than free. I don't know if all stores accept coupons with overage, but even if you can't use the coupons, this is a great deal!

Hurry before they're all gone!

25 Cent Oatmeal at CVS!

Here's a great unadvertised deal at CVS. My CVS has Mom's Best Naturals oatmeal in a dollar section at the front of the store. Use the $.75/1 cpn here to get it for $.25 each. If you use the back button on your browser, you can print the coupon twice. My store has smaller canisters of quick oats, or 6 packs of instant maple and brown sugar in this section.

Great Week at CVS!

This week will be a really good one at CVS. There's lots of things free after ECBs. Several of them will be moneymakers with coupons.
My favorite moneymaker is Glade Fragrance collection candles or diffusers. I love these! They smell really good.
You can also get Aquafresh and Sensodyne free after coupons and ECBs. For a full list of matchups see Southern Savers, Money Saving Mom, or Frugal Coupon Living. They all have great lists.

Why I Love CVS

Finally, here's my CVS deals for the week. First, let me thank Jenny at Southern Savers for the scenario idea. Her website is a fantastic source for deals. I'd definitely recommend you check it out.

I started my shopping trip with 4 ECBs and I wanted to pay as little OOP as possible, so my trip was in 6 transactions.
