Here are my best shop suggestions for both CVS and Walgreens this week! These suggestions should be tailored to fit what works best for your family and your financial situation, so make sure that they work for you before heading out! That being said, here is what I would do based on the best deals this week (assuming you have no ECB or RR to start with):

*Note – double check your receipt to make sure that the limit on L’Oreal is still two!

Be sure to pick up your Free Domino or C&H Brown Sugar (exp 3/1) at some store while you’re out shopping!
If you did this, you’d walk away spending $12.49 out of pocket and still have $4 ECB, $4 from Checkout 51 and $3.49 RR. That’s a total of $4.73 and you’ll be getting a bunch of stuff! If you have any RR or ECB to start with, feel free to change these deals to what will work best for you! These are just a jumping point. Happy shopping!
