CVS This Week

I haven't had the time to do any CVSing lately. I finally had some free time and I got to make three trips this week. I was happy about the deals I was able to get on Diet Coke. Our stockpile was getting low.

If you are new to the Drugstore Game, my transactions this week are good for you to check out. I started the week with no ECBs, just like you would do if you were new to the game. If you haven't heard of the game before, head over to Money Saving Mom for a CVS tutorial and Q&A.

Check out this week's deals at Deal Seeking Mom and Coupon Cravings.

At least I know who to come to if I need some caffeine or a feminine hygiene product.

Impressive work!
