cvs trip


today i attempted my first cvs trip. i recently read a friend of mines blog where she was shopping at cvs and was saving crazy $$$$ by using mnfr. coupons and cvs reward bucks. well, i'm not sure if i did as great as she did but for my first trip i feel pretty good about it.
for starters i don't usually buy this much medicine but with winter coming up and i had some great coupons plus, cvs had them on sale; i couldn't resist. i wont go into full detail but i spent $113.00 and i got $16.00 back in reward bucks. i thought this was reasonable considering i got diapers, toilet paper, 4 toothbrushes, toothpaste, band aids, 2 diswashing soap, 2 hand soap pumps,flinstones vits., one a days for me, benadryl, listerine, lotion, baby powder, lysol, tylenol sinus, alieve, 4 cases of coke, 1 case of dasani water, and finally 2 boxes of light bulbs.
now at first i thought oh my lord! i spent too much! but after looking at everything i got i feel like i saved $$$. the things i bought are not things i have to buy weekly and most not even monthly. so for $113.00 for over a months worth of stuff i feel great about my purchase!
