I made a trip to CVS this week since there were some great deals on oral care products. Since I am a dental hygienist, I just couldn’t pass them up!

Transaction #1

(2) Excedrin (8 ct.), $0.99 (one missing from picture)
–Get $0.99 ECB wyb 1

(1) Colgate Max Fresh Toothpaste, $2.49
–Get $2 ECB wyb 1
Used $0.50/1 Colgate Toothpaste Coupon (tearpad from my office)

Used $3 in ECB from a previous week.

Paid: $1.09
Got Back: $1.98 ECB from Excedrin and $2 ECB from Colgate

Transaction #2

(1) Colgate Max Fresh Toothpaste, $2.49
–Get $2 ECB wyb 1
Used $0.50/1 Colgate Toothpaste Coupon (tearpad from my office)

(1) Oral B Pulsar Toothbrush, $6
— Get $3 ECB wyb 1
Used $3/1 Oral-B Adult or Kids Battery Toothbrush, exp. 7/31/11 (P&G 06/05/11)

Used $3.98 in ECBs from transaction #1.

Paid: $1.43
Got Back: $2 ECB for Colgate and $3 ECB for Oral B

Transaction #3

So overall I spent $3.24 out of pocket and I have $5.50 in ECBs to use for another week. If I were to pay full retail price, it would have been just over $23 for all of the stuff above! The large bottle of mouthwash is normally $7.49 when not on sale- crazy!

Did you score any great deals this week? I am headed to Kroger tomorrow and hope to update the unadvertised deals soon!
