CVS Trip for One, 3/8/11

Before coupons, this would have cost me $21.47.  I was able to pay $0.24 OOP, and made $1.01 after ECBs!

Transaction #1

2 Dove Men +Care Deodorant @ 2.00 = 4.00 (on sale from 4.89/ea)
1 Revitalens 10 oz @ 7.89 = 7.89 (on sale from 9.99)
1 Revlon Mascara @ 6.99 = 6.99 (on sale from 9.39)
1 Lucky Charms Cereal Cup @ 1.00 = 1.00
1 Diet Coke @ 1.59 = 1.59 (not pictured)
TOTAL = 21.47

– 4.00 (2 x 2.00/1 Men +Care IP from coupons.com)
– 3.00 (1 x 3.00/1 Revitalens from 3/6 SS)
– 1.00 (1 x 1.00/1 Revlon Color Cosmetic)
– 1.00 (1 x 1.00/1 Kellogg’s Cereal CVS Q from Scanner)
– 3.00 (1 x 3.00/1 Revlon Cosmetic CVS Q from Scanner)
– 2.00 (1 x 2.00/1 Soda or Candy CVS Q from e-mail/Facebook)
= 7.47
– 7.00 ECB from Physician’s Formula last week
TOTAL = .24

Plus, I got back $4.00 in ECB from the Revlon, $4.00 from the Revitalens, and $.25 from my Green Bag (4 scans = $1.00), making this a $1.01 MM overall!

Couponing for One

  • Diet Coke: The fact that it’s not pictured should give you an idea. 🙂
  • Dove Men +Care: Giving these to my step-dad.  He’s a paramedic/fireman, so whatever he doesn’t use or want, he can always find a home for at one of the stations.
  • Lucky Charms: I don’t like it enough to buy a whole box, but it’ll be a fun switch for breakfast!
  • Revitalens: I’m still hoarding contact solution.  It’s one of those things I will never get over, because I hated having to pay so much for what felt like a bottle of water.
  • Revlon: My quest to find a mascara that is as good as Mary Kay’s continues.

About couponingforone

I am a graduate student who stumbled into the world of couponing out of a desire to not pay so much for contact solution! I'm now at the point where I would never dream of paying for contact solution, but many of the coupon blogs out there focus on couponing with a family. With that in mind, I wanted to help others like myself who only need to coupon for one.
