Hello fellow penny pinchers,
I'll start off by saying coupons are ESSENTIAL! You can print them, buy them, get them out of the paper, recycle dive (yes I've done it) anything...just start clipping! You will save hundreds if not thousands of dollars on groceries, household goods, clothing etc.
This blog will contain deals from local grocery stores, department stores, even online deals. I either find them myself or with your help as you send me deals you find.

CVS Extra Bucks

To get better CVS deals you must have their shopper card. During each week they will have deals on their ads that give Immediate EB's or Extra Bucks when you buy certain products. Those are immediate and can be used on your next purchase. In the meantime every purchase you make using their shopper card will give you 2% which accumulates and you can use at the end of every quarter. This is just like having a gift card that you can use anywhere in CVS (except tobacco and alcohol)

The best way to use the immediate EB's is to buy the products that offer EB's and only those items. Take the EB coupon (located on the bottom of your receipt) and use the EB's for the next purchase you have.
FOR EXAMPLE: Pantene, Tide, and Gillette are offering $1 EB each when you purchase these items. Total EB's $3. Buy those things first at the register, take your EB coupon and finish your shopping. You can then use those EB's for the rest of your items or you can save them for your next trip.

Your shopper card will also give you special coupons when scanned.

Combine all of this with regular Manufactorer coupons and you can get some pretty awesome deals.
