CVS Week #2

Week 2 went a little better then week 1 - at least I spent less :) That is the goal - every week I am planning to spend less and see if I can get this ECB thing going.

Here's what I got:



I spent: $19.32
I saved: $46.80 (with sales, coupons and my $11.00 ECB's from last week)
I earned: $14.00 in ECB's
Total OOP: $5.32

What I did:

For the most part I stuck with products that earned me ECB's though I decided I would also pick up items that were really cheap such as the 2 deodarants that ended up being $1.29 for 2 and the cereal that was $0.88 after coupon (R 6/7).

ECB's Scenarios:

Schick Quatro Titanium Razor or Trimmer - on sale for $7.99 - down from $11.99 - used 2 $4.00 off coupons from S 6/14 - earned $6.00 ECB's from the 2 - making my total cost for 1 razor and 1 trimmer: $1.98

Purex Complete 3-in-1 laundry sheets - these are brand new - washer and dryer sheets all in one - sounds pretty cool - washes, takes away static and works as a dryer sheet and it's good for a top loader or a front loader - first I've seen. They were on sale for $6.99 down from $8.99 - I used 2 $2.00 off coupons from S 6/14 and earned $4.00 ECB's back - so they ended up being $2.99 each - each pack does 20 loads.

Crest Pro-Health Toothpaste - on sale for $2.99 - used $0.50 off (PG 6/7) and earned $2.00 back in ECB - final price: $0.49

The only non-sale, non-coupon purchase was the 4 pack of toothbrushes because my kids really needed it but I earned $2.00 back in ECB's so it made it worth it :)

I'll share my HT trip tomorrow - DH is waiting to watch a movie...
