I had a nice little trip to CVS on Thanksgiving morning. Unfortunately, I’m just getting the trip written up now. Stephanie went with me and we both have a CVS card. That’s why you see some of these deals done twice.
This entire trip was a mess, because our store was ravaged by the middle of the night shoppers. There weren’t any free razors (Schick or store brand) to be found, plus there was only one Glade product in stock, no Scott Bath Tissue, one package of Viva Paper Towels, no freebie 7Up/A&W/Crush 2L soda bottles and only one Trolli Gummy Candy left. I think there were a few other deals we couldn’t get, but they don’t come to mind right now.
Just looking at my photo, here are the deals that I know have a limit higher than one: Viva Paper Towels (limit is three) and Wet N Wild Gift Sets (limit is three.) All other Extra Bucks deals below have a limit of one for the period of 11/24-11/26.
I had a $5 off $25 CVS total purchase store coupon that I received in my email on 11/23. I used that in one of my transactions, so there’s another $5 of profit beyond what is listed with the items below. That extra $5 of savings is reflected in the final statistics of this trip.
