My Shopping Trip: ShopRite

Last night I stopped in at ShopRite to grab a few more of the Tyson Grilled and Ready Chicken Stips and the Hefty Trash Bags.  I spent about $10 in 2 transactions there.

Today, was pretty sweet at CVS.  Remember, those Schick and Skintimate ECBs that were printing a couple of weeks ago?  Well, they are printing again.  And, they even had the signs up again. Yep, buy Skintimate or Schick (see varieties working below) and get a $4 ECB.

I went there for the Kellogg’s (since they were all out last night at ShopRite).  Once I saw that the Schick was working, I quickly came up with a deal to buy them, the Kellogg’s Cereal and use my $10 off $50 CVS coupon that is expiring tomorrow.

Here is what I scored:
