Sunday's CVS Trip

My last stop today was CVS.  They also didn't have much going on that interested me, so I just got a few good deals to roll my ECB's...

4 Progresso Soups (for my Mom) $3.19 ea - $1.94 ea Sale - $1/4 MC (newspaper) - $1 ECB = $3 (my mom paid me for these so zero oop for me)

1 Gold Emblem Candy Corn $0.99 - $0.99 ECB = FREE!

1 Gillette Fusion Shave Gel $2.37 - $2 ECB = $0.37

4 Glade Items $4.29 ea - $1.29 ea Sale - $1/1 MC x 2 (printable) - $1/2 MC (newspaper) - $4 ECB = 4/$5

+ $0.73 Tax

- $16.36 ECB's used to Pay

Total OOP: $0.73 - $3 Cash (from my mom) - $7.99 ECB's Earned = Net OOP: ALL FREE + $10.26 Money-maker!
