CVS, Week of January 3rd

Just as Rite Aid’s deals this week were amazing, so were the deals at CVS! Bonus Deals were in effect this week, which sweetened some of the regular ECB offers. I started the year with plenty of leftover ECBs ($16.99, which I spent on this week’s first transaction), so as I’m striving to do, I was able to pretty much just pay sales tax!

Here are the results of this week’s trip to CVS:

(I know my husband is happy, as he now has more than enough protein/energy bars to last him the semester.)
