CVS amazing Extra Bucks!

Today I went to CVS, it was a small trip but a successful one!

Garnier cleansing towelettes $5.00 each, used 3 $2.00 off coupons making it 3/$9.00 but to get the deal even sweeter I received $5.00 in extra bucks from my purchase! Making these $1.33 each after extra bucks!

The Pantene shampoo/conditioner was 2/$6.97, used the $3.00/2 coupon from this past Sunday's paper, then received 2EB making this 2/$1.97!

Elnett hairspray is always getting rave reviews but I am too cheap to shell out $12.00+ for it. Well today my CVS had it on clearance for $7.89! I had a $3.00 off manufacturers coupon which made this less than $5.00! There is a coupon on target.com right now that you can use as well.

The toothpaste was $2.79 and I had a $0.75 off coupon, but combined with the $2.00 extra bucks I got back it was only $0.04! I really love Colgate total toothpaste, especially when it's cheap!

So many of you are wondering, what is this extra bucks nonsense?
Well each week CVS has certain items that will reward you extra bucks. They print at the bottom of the receipt and you can use them like cash next time you are at CVS!

So for this week I made $11.00 in extra bucks
2 for each toothpaste, 4 total
2 from Pantene
5 from garnier

I had $12 left from last week so here is how I purchased my items
Transaction #1
Pantene $6.97
Colgate $2.79
Colgate $2.79
-$3.00 Pantene coupon
-$1.50 Colgate coupons
-$7.00 extra bucks
Tax $1.17
Subtotal $1.05
Total $2.22
And $6 in extra bucks printed on my receipt!

Transaction #2
3 Garnier towelettes 3/$15.00
1 Elnett hairspray $7.89
-6.00 Garnier coupons
-$3.00 Elnett coupon
-$11.00 in extra bucks
Tax $1.66
Subtotal $2.89
Total $4.55
And $5.00 extra bucks printed on my receipt!

So make those extra bucks work for you!
I only spent $6.77 out of pocket just by putting my extra bucks to work! And still have $5.00 for next week!
Retail at CVS for all of this would have been $54.45, yikes!
I saved $47.68 which is 88%

I hope this helps you see that you don't always need coupons to save money. Get an extra care card at CVS and you will be on you way to some extra bucks!
