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):
CVS
Buy 1 Just The Basics Single Roll $.79
Buy 1 Olay Regenerist Luminous Cleanser 5 oz $3.99
Buy 1 Rescue Pearls or Rescue Sleep 28 ct $9.49
Use $.79 Just The Basics coupon from Red Instant Coupon Machine
Use $4 Olay Regenerist from 10/5 P&G
Pay $9.49 plus tax, Get $9.49 ECB
Final Price: Free
You can also get Purex Detergent or Crystals for only $2.10 each (no coupons needed!) and Hershey’s Kisses for only $1 per bag!
Walgreens
Buy 1 St. Joseph Enteric Low Dose Aspirin 30 or 36 ct $2
Buy 2 Lindsay Olives 5 or 6 oz $.89 w/in-ad coupon
Buy 4 Haribo Gummy Candy 4 to 5 oz 4/$3
Use $1 St. Joseph from 11/9 inserts
Use $1/2 Lindsay Olives coupon (zip 80123)
Use 4 $.30 Haribo Product Printable
Pay $3.58, Get 1,000 points from St. Joseph
Final Price: $2.58
You can also get 7-Up Brand 2-liter bottles for only $.66 at either store! And don’t forget to pick up your free Hershey’s Chocolate Bar through 11/9 at either store!
If you did this, you’d walk away spending $13.07 out of pocket and still have $9.49 ECB and 1,000 points. That’s only $2.58 for everything 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!
