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
Transaction #1
Buy 4 Revlon Colorstay Shadowlinks $3.19 each ($12.76)
Use 4 $3 Revlon from 12/13 SS (regional)
Pay $.76, Get $4 ECB
Final Price: $3.24 Moneymaker
Transaction #2
Buy 1 Boiron Calendula Cream 2.5 oz $8.99
Use $2 Boiron Calendula Cream printable
Also use $4 ECB from previous transaction
Pay $2.99, Get $6 ECB and $4 Boiron Calendula Cream (Ibotta Deposit)
Final Price: $3.01 Moneymaker
Remember that you can also get a Halmark Cards moneymaker (if you printed the coupon), Band-Aids for only $.99 plus more! Find more CVS deals here.
Walgreens (through 11/24 ONLY)
Transaction #1
Buy 1 Quaker Oatmeal Squares $1.99
Pay $1.99, 10 Everyday Points and $.75 Quaker Oatmeal Squares (Ibotta Deposit)
Final Price: $1.23
Remember that you can also get Holiday Candy Singles for only $.50 each and more! Find more Walgreens deals here.
If you did this, you’d walk away spending $5.74 out of pocket and still have $6 ECB, $4.75 from Ibotta and 10 points. That means you’re walking having MADE $5.02 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!
