Stocking Up CVS Trip
I have recently discovered the bargain of CVS. They have a program called ECBs where you pay for an item up front and then a coupon (ECB) will print out that you can use as cash on your next transaction. They had some good deals this week so I dropped by twice today (it’s less than 1 mile from my house) on my errands to take advantage of the savings!
I’m not as good as other CVSers, but you can combine coupons with their deals too and really save. Also, I don’t believe in buying something free just because I can, it has to be something we will use.
CVS will also have great deals going on and Thursday through Saturday offer a lot of things free after ECBS. Go here for more Black Friday details.
