This coming week, I am planning to make some great purchases at CVS for very little out of pocket expense. A great site that I visit that has the sales and coupons grouped together, along with links to printable coupons is http://www.southernsavers.com/. She even gives purchase scenarios. I used her ideas to get me started and then expanded. Here are my ideas.
Transaction #1
Purchase (1) Tylenol Precise $5.99
(1) Nivea for Men Active body wash $4.99
Use $2 off Tylenol Precise manufacturer's coupon
$2 off Tylenol Precise CVS store coupon
$1 off Nivea Men's body wash coupon from my paper a few weeks ago
Spend $5.98 (before tax)
Get back $2 ECB (Extra Care Buck) for Tylenol Precise
$4.99 ECB for Nivea body wash
If you notice after the ECBs, I earned $0.01 on the Tylenol Precise and $1 on the Nivea body wash. There is a limit of 1 on these purchases.
Transaction #2
Purchase (4) Aqua Mist Air Refresheners $2.50 each
Use (2) BOGO Aqua Mist coupons from my paper last month
(2) $1 off Aqua Mist printable coupon that you can find link for @ Southern Savers
$2 ECB from Tylenol Precise
Spend $1 (before tax)
Get back $5 ECB
Notice I just made $4 on this transaction.
Transaction #3
Purchase (4) Aqua Mist Air Refresheners $2.50 each
Use (2) BOGO Aqua Mist coupons from my paper last month (Remember that I get 6 Savannah Morning News each Sunday.)
$5 ECB from transaction #2.
Spend $0.00 (before tax)
Get back $5 ECB (There is a Limit of 2 on this ECB offer.)
Notice I am only going to pay for the sales tax, and I'm still earning my ECB.
Transaction #4
Purchase (1) Alive MultiVitamin $9.99
Use $1 off Alive Vitamins printable coupon (link on Southern Savers)
$5 ECB from transaction #3

$9.99 ECB from transaction #4
Spend $0.00 (before tax)
Get back $5 ECB for spending $15 Dove, Sauve, or Vaseline Products (Limit 1)
$0.99 ECB for Brach's candy (Limit 1- This deal is only for Sunday-Tuesday)
Notice that I have just spent $10.97 before taxes on all 5 transactions, PLUS I have $5.99 ECB to use in the future. Wooohooo!!!
I have fallen in love with the Southern Savers website. She does most of the work for me. I just add other things I see. I can use the body wash to donate to our soldiers fighting for our country. I'm sure they would like to smell nice when they aren't in the field. Hope some of these suggestions help. Love ya bunches!
