CVS 2-16-18

Today I got all of this for $23.51.  Not bad!  Here is the breakdown:

Transaction #1:
$6 beauty bucks were waiting on my account, which I used.
If I spent $20 on these products, I got $5 bucks back. So,
Gain 100oz
Regular price $14.49
On sale for $11.94
$2 coupon
Works out to $6.44

Charmin toilet paper
Regular price $15.29
On sale for $9.99
$1 coupon
Works out to $4.49

Finally, I got a $2.50 coupon at the red machine in CVS for Colgate toothpaste.
Colgate Max Fresh Toothpaste
Regular price $3.59
On sale for $3.00
$2.50 coupon
$0.50 coupon (on my CVS card)
Works out to FREE

Total spent on transaction #1 - $10.93, plus tax

Transaction #2:
I received a $10 off $50 purchase after the first transaction, so my goal was to hit $50.

If I spent $20 on dial soap, I got $7 bucks back.  So,
4 Dial body wash
Regular price $6.29
On sale B1G1 50% off
(My $1 off $5 body wash coupon didn't work - not sure why)
Works out to $3.72 each

3 Dial hand soap
Regular price $2.27
On sale B1G1 50% off
Works out to $0.89 each

Good deal!

I tried to get the cottonelle deal, which enabled me to use the $10 off $50 purchase, but ended up returning the toilet paper when I didn't get the deal advertised.  As a reward for my disappointment, the $10 coupon was able to be used anyway.

So, if you take $10 off the soaps, that works out to $7.55 total for all 7 soaps.

Softsoap body wash
Regular price $4.79
On sale for $3.49
Got $1.75 bucks back
Works out to $1.74

2 dove bags of chocolate
Regular price $5.29 each
On sale 50% off since they are Valentine's candy
Used $1 off $3 candy coupon
Works out to $2.15 each

Total spent on transaction #2 - $13.59

Today's numbers before tax:
Worth $80.71 at CVS
I spent $23.51
I saved $57.20, which is 71%.
But I used gift cards, so it was all FREE.

If I bought all of this at Walmart including their sales today, I would have spent $52.46.  I saved $29.95 off that price, which is 55%.
