If you’re planning to make a trip to CVS this week, here’s a deal scenario for you. This is a great step-by-step tutorial if you’re just starting at CVS, or if you need a little inspiration. If you have any ECB from last week, you can use them on the 1st transaction to lower your out-of-pocket. Some stores will allow expired coupons within a few days of expiration, so the 2nd transaction will only work if your store allows. Otherwise, I would just hold on to your ECB for next week. You can find the rest of this week’s CVS coupon matchups here.
