I’m so silly! I love good deals. I was so excited about Finish Electrosol being on sale this week that I had to run out early this morning to try and get it.
Electrasol Tabs or Gelpacs $4.50 ea Spend $20 Earn 10 ECBs Limit 1
– Buy 5 and use 5 $2.50/1 from the 7/12 SS insert
Spend $10.00, get $10.00 ECB!
=FREE after coupons and ECBs! (Thanks Saving Cents with Sense and Thriftymama!)
I walked into my favorite CVS and knew they usually are out of stock fast. I think it was about 10:00 when I got there. I didn’t even think about the school supplies. Click HERE to see my earlier post of other great deals at CVS!
I also had a $3 CRT for Monistat and a $4 coupon from an insert to use that would make it $7 off. Something I like to buy on hand. I know the CRT would expire by next week so I decided to get it with my $5/$30 coupon.
When I got to the store they only had 4 Finish boxes (1 was opened but had them all there). I then bought Lysol disinfectant spray for $4 and used a $1 coupon that expires 8/3/09.
My transaction looked like this:
This is all on my Nana’s card.
4 Electrosol Finish for $18
1 Monistat for $13.99
1 Lysol for $4
-$5/$30 coupon (CVS coupon)

After I went to Staples I felt like I was on a roll so I went to another CVS but this one is usually out of stock pretty quickly but I thought it wasn’t that far away.
I went and they had only 3 boxes of Finnish and shortly after I asked the cashier she showed me the where they kept more so I got all 5 boxes! Since I had done the transaction already on my Nana’s card I decided to do this one on mine.
