CVS Trip - 10/22/11 - Paid $.87 for Dr. Pepper, Glade, Starbursts + more!

This was a pretty fun week at CVS! They are having a great promotion through the end of the year where you spend $30.00 in qualifying products you receive a $10.00 gift card but I didn't take advantage of that this week as none of the products were items we needed.

Anyways, here is tonight's trip.

Out of Pocket - $.87

Sale price - $79.34

Retail price - $150.41

So I was paid to shop at CVS tonight! Spent a total of $13 ECB but earned back $20.00 and paid only $.87 for all of it.

Walgreens paid me $10 to buy Cottonelle Toilet Paper and Depends

I have to start by saying I was very hesitant to share these trips. It's the first time I have ever purchased something I have absolutely no intention of using. I'm not proud but I have been waiting for a good "money maker" to get me back into the Walgreens game and it just so happened to be Depends. There you have it.

For those interested I DO plan to donate all of these so if anyone in the Spring area knows of a senior center or non profit organization for disabled teens/adults or seniors please let me know! I want them to go to a good place where they'll be put to good use. I understand Depends are VERY costly.

All the products are not shown in the photos.

Transaction 1

4 Depends Kits @ $2.00 each

- $2/1 MQ x 2

- $2/2 MQ

Total = $2.00. Earned $4.00 Register Reward.

Inside of each of these kits is a $3.00 coupon good on any Depends. These are the coupons used for each subsequent transaction.

Transaction 2

4 Depends Kits @ $2.49 each (this store did not have them on sale)

- $3/1 MQ x 4 (adjusted down)

Total = $0.00. Earned $4.00 Register Reward.

Transaction 3

2 Cottonelle Toilet Paper @ $5.00 each

- $4 Register Rewards (from T1 and T2)

- $2 Walgreens Cottonelle Q

Total = $0.00. Earned $3 Register Reward

I did this deal a total of 4 times. Each subsequent transaction all had $0.00 out of pocket and I ended up with $3 in Register Rewards at the end of each. So in total I earned $12 Register Rewards - $2.00 I spent in Transaction 1 = $10.00 money maker.

I love getting paid to shop.

CVS Trip - 10/15/2011 - Paid $.54 for 28 boxes of Kelloggs Cereal, Goldfish, Covergirl, Pur-Absorb

I had a great trip tonight! The manager said the warehouse was out of the Centrum ProNutrients so the 6 boxes I pre-ordered didn't come in. She's going to try to order them again this week. And my Wisk coupons haven't come in the mail so I'll have to go back for those later this week.

But I am so happy with what I did get!!
