CVS 2-6-12 Patience pays off!

CVS has had a variety of great deals these last couple of weeks!  I didn't even go to Walgreens last week ... and this week I will only be picking up a couple things.

I was able to get some items I have been patiently waiting for ... *** Remember ... Get a raincheck if the item is out of stock ... the rainchecks NEVER EXPIRE at CVS! Hold onto that raincheck until you get a good coupons to go with it!

Ralphs 1-31-12

Since Ralph's was having there "Buy 10 get $5" deal ... and it included some family favorites ... This trip was more of a stocking-up rather than regular shopping! 

I chose to place an order so as not to clear the shelves.

ANYTIME YOU NEED MORE THAN 25 OF SOMETHING ... PLACE AN ORDER ... DON'T BE A SHELF CLEARER! IT IS KIND OF A COUPONING NO NO.

Retail $271.59 (my largest total to date) ... Saves $257.86 ... Paid $13.73 ... 94.94% saved.

I did 2 transactions to be able to double a few coupons ... Ralph's only doubles the first of a like coupon.
