My Shopping Trip: CVS

The links in the post below may be affiliate links. Read the full disclosure.


I have been sick for a week now and today I am finally feeling better.  Good thing because I have a workshop tonight that I am looking forward to.

It felt good to get out of the house this morning but I didn’t want to push it so I just made a quick trip to CVS to score my Glade Money Maker and another Carmex.  Which, by the way, has magically disappeared before I even got to take the picture…hmm?

Here is what I did:

Transaction:

  • (3) Glade Sense & Spray Starter Kit – $5.00
  • Carmex Moisture Plus Lip Balm – $1.50 (not pictured)

Coupons Used:

Total: $2.12
Received: $4 ECB for Glade
Total Savings including sale prices and coupons: $37.16 which I will be adding to the LRWC Reader’s Grocery Savings Counter.  Be sure to add your savings so we can see how much we have all saved in 2012

Here is an update to my Grocery Budget:

  • Total in the envelope as of 12/18: $385.24
  • Added $150 to grocery envelope on 12/23
