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 Starbucks Refreshers Product $1.50
Use $1 Starbucks Refreshers coupon
Pay $.50, Get $1.50 ECB
Final Price: $1 Moneymaker
Transaction #2
Buy 2 Triaminic $5.99
Buy 2 Theraflu $5.99
Use 2 $4 Triaminic Product from 9/21 SS
Use 2 $4 Theraflu from 9/21 SS

Final Price: $1.46
*Note – don’t forget about getting Arm & Hammer Detergent for $1.50 each, Starbucks Doubleshot or Frappuccino for only $.60 per bottle or Tide and Gain for only $1.77 each if those interest you!
Walgreens
Transaction #1
Buy 2 Werther’s Candy 2/$3
Buy 2 Riesen Candy 2/$3

Transaction #2
Buy 2

Don’t forget about the $.99 Renu Multi-Purpose Solution if that interests you! And don’t forget to pick up your free Mike N Ikes Candy through 9/21 at either store!
If you did this, you’d walk away spending $14.96 out of pocket and still have 1,000 points, $5 from SavingStar and $3 Register Rewards. That’s only $5.96 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!
