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 2 Garnier Fructis Stylers 2/$6 (OR 2 Garnier Shampoo/Conditioner 2/$6)
Use 2 $2 Garnier coupons from 3/6 RP (or $1 Garnier Fructis Style Sheer Set Hairspray Printable)
Pay as low as $2 (for stylers) plus tax, Get $4 ECB
Final Price: $2 Moneymaker
Transaction #2
Buy 2 Softsoap Body Wash 15-18 oz 2/$7
Use 2 $1 Softsoap Brand Body Wash Printables or $1 from 3/20 SS
Also use $4 ECB from previous transaction
Pay $1 plus tax, Get $4 ECB
Final Price: $1
Remember that you can also get Colgate Toothpaste for only $.49, Just The Basics Paper Towels roll for $.69 plus more! Find more CVS deals here.
Walgreens
Transaction #1
Buy 2 Colgate Total Advanced Mouthwash 8.45 oz 2/$6
Buy 1 Palmolive Dish Liquid 10 oz $.99
Use 2 $1 Colgate Mouthwash from 3/6 SS
Use $.25 Palmolive Dish Liquid Printable

If you did this, you’d walk away spending $7.74 out of pocket and still have $4 ECB, $4 RR and 60 Everyday Points. That means you’re walking away having MADE $.32 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!
