Gettin’ Paid to Buy Stuff is FUN!

I had a grrreeeat time CVSing this week! There were many deals to be had, and I had a lot of fun getting them!! I was also able to get some things we -gasp!- needed as well!

This picture actually covers two transactions.
1st transaction:
1 Garnier conditioner: $4.29
1 Garnier cleanser: $5.99
1 Garnier towlettes: $5.99
2 CVS hand sanitizers clearanced at 25 cents each
total = $16.77
Coupons I used:
$5/$15 CVS coupon
$3/$15 CVS beauty coupon
Two $2 off Garnier nutritioniste coupons
One $1 off Garnier conditioner coupon
I used 3 ECBs and spent less than a dollar in cash and got back 5 ECBs for the Garnier products! And you know what is great about that? All this stuff wasn’t even for me! It was for friends and family members who use these products! I love being able to provide this for them and getting paid to do so!

2nd transaction:
1 Iams cat food $8.99
1 Glucerna shakes $10.49
total = $19.48
Coupons I used:
$5/$15 CVS coupon
$10 off Glucerna coupon
$2/$10 Glucerna purchase CVS CRT
$3 off Iams coupon
total = negative 52 cents! oops! I threw in a Payday candy bar, paid 41 cents cash and got 2 ECBs for the Glucerna! I didn’t even have to use any ECBs!

I had another $10 off Glucerna coupon, so I had to do that deal again, because we needed some milk. But I can’t go buy JUST milk. So, I got:
Milk $2.99
Glucerna shakes $10.49
Cadbury Mini Eggs 17 cents (filler)
Reese’s 50 cents (filler)
CVS Rapid Release Gels $3.99
total = 18.14
Coupons I used:
CVS $5/$15
Glucerna $10 off
total = $3.14
I used $2.99 ECB, paid 15 cents cash and got back $5.99 ECB! 2 for the Glucerna and 3.99 for the CVS brand Tylenol!

And finally, my favorite transaction of the week:

CVS had a deal where if you bought 3 Essence of Beauty (a CVS brand) products, you got 5 ECBs. Well for some crazy reason these 99 cent toe separators count as part of the deal! So you get 3 for $2.97 and get 5 ECB! Crazy! Anyhoo, Here’s how this transaction went:
1 Nivea for Men $5.99
2 CVS Rapid Release gels $7.98
4 toe separators $3.96
1 Reese’s (filler!) 50 cents
total = $18.43
Coupons used:
$5/$15 CVS coupon
$3/$10 CVS brand coupon
$2 Nivea coupon
7 in ECBs and paid $1.64 cash and got back….wait for it…$22.98 in ECBs!! 10 for the toe separators (I had purchased the other two on a previous transaction – meant to get three oops! So I made up for it on this transaction.), 5 for the Nivea (had also purchased the rest of this on a previous transaction), and 7.98 for the CVS brand Tylenol. My cashier was muy impressed!

Well that’s the end of my CVS fun for the week…I also hit the mega-sale at Kroger, which you can see here. For more impressive deals, check out Super Savings Saturday at Money Saving Mom, and for more Crazy CVSers, check out CVS Superstars at the Censtible Sawyer!

  1. Okay! That last transaction was F A B U L O U S !!!!!!!! I am also muy impressed! My CVS trip was hectic this week. I did get some deals, but it was stressful! You did great! As always, I am impressed!

  2. Don’t know how you do it! Maybe you should rent yourself out as a personel CVS shopper to the rich. Or the wanna be rich…..

  3. You should post your awesome deals over at my site for CVS Superstars!! You truly are a CVS superstar!! Your skills could be useful to a “newbie.” Plus you could join a few more fanatics (like myself!).

    Great job!

  4. Those are great deals, and especially the last one! I am kicking myself for not going back to CVS this week to get that deal. I love seeing your CVS posts!
