Sunday, 1/24 -- CVS and Publix

I forgot to take pictures of these finds, so I hope you can imagine these great bargains.

Publix:

5 Beech Nut Let's Grow microwaveable meals -- $1.00 each

Used 5 $1 Beech Nut coupons purchased from thecouponclippers.com

Paid: FREE!

*****

6 $.99 Hallmark cards

Used 6 $.99 coupons found on the card aisle at Publix

Paid: FREE!

*****

1 Weight Watchers yogurt cup -- $.70

no coupon

Paid: $.70

*****

Total before coupons: $11.70.

Total after coupons: $.70!

I bought the yogurt because I couldn't imagine what would happen if I didn't. Would they let me just leave without paying anything? I don't know. I was too nervous to find out, so I just bought a yogurt that I'll eat for breakfast tomorrow.

CVS -- first trip

I did 4 separate transactions.

Each transaction was for 1 box of 6 Soy Joy snack bars priced at $6 each.

Each was paid for with $6 ECB.

Nothing paid out of pocket.

Still have $6 ECB.

First box: total $6. Paid with $6 ECB. Nothing out of pocket. Purchase generated $6 ECB. Second box: total $6. Paid with $6 ECB from previous purchase. Nothing out of pocket. Purchase generated $6 ECB. Repeat.
