    The CVS in town had carefree panty liners and Stayfree pads for .89 each. Then used $1.50 in coupons and got one of each for .38 oop! was pretty stoked. They also had CVS pretzel rods and honey wheat pretzels for .44 each – so I got a few – plan to leave one in the car and brought the rest in for snacks & lunches! I (heart) getting a good deal!
