CVS And Walgreens Shop Suggestion! (Week Of 5/24)

I’ve had a number of people asking about shops at both CVS and Walgreens recently, so I thought I would begin to share some shop suggestions with you! 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

After shopping at both stores, you’ll walk away spending $21.91 out of pocket and you’ll have $4.75 ECB, $5.50 in RR and 2,000 points left over. That’s only $9.66 for everything! 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!
