More Free Makeup... and Dog Food Too.

Notice the tail...? Does anyone else have a cat that refuses to let you take a photo without him in it?

First stop today was CVS. I realized last night I had let a couple Extra Bucks expire!! The Horror!! Well, I decided to go first thing in the morning, and if they called me on it, I would play dumb. Uh, isn't today the 5th? I had a really nice cashier and even though they did beep, she entered them in differently, I think she said as coupons, but I'm not sure.

1st transaction at CVS:
1 Physicians Formula Bamboo Compact with Try Me Free label

Coupons used:
4/1 physicians formula
2 ECB

Subtotal: $.99
Total: 1.55 in cash (was so excited about the expired extra bucks working, I forgot to hand her my cvs gift card)

Will submit for rebate ($6.95 is maximum value on rebate form) = MONEYMAKER of $5.40

2nd transaction at CVS:
1 CVS 3 pk of paper towels 2.50 (Ridiculously expensive for paper towels, right? But I was in a rush.)
7 Beneful dog food meals on clearance $.72 each (Again, very expensive for dog food! My dog is very spoiled and LOVES wet food!)
1 M+M's .89
2 caramels .33 each

The candy was added at the register when I needed a little bit more so I could use my 8.99 extra bucks. Not very good planning on this trip.

Coupons:
8.99 extra bucks

Subtotal: $.10
Total with tax: $.83 paid with cash (forgot to use that darn gift card again - my cell phone was ringing and distracted me!)

On to Rite Aid, where the Cover Girl craziness continues.

1st transaction at RA:
6 Cover Girl concealors 8.19 BOGO
Benadryl 24 ct 5.49

Coupons:
5/25
3 BOGO Cover Girl

Subtotal: $.49
Total: $2.06 on RA gift card

2nd transaction at RA:
4 Cover Girl powder 8.29 BOGO
1 Benadryl 24 ct 5.49

Coupons:
5/20 VV
2 Cover Girl BOGO

Subtotal: $.49
Total: $1.42 on RA gift card

I'll be submitting my receipts for this Cover Girl rebate, as well as the SCR that gives you a P+G coupon book.

Plan for tomorrow - more Cover Girl, of course. But I think I'll put those high value $5 Pampers coupons I got to good use at RA instead of getting more Benadryl tomorrow. I have plenty of time to get the Benadryl but I want to get the Pampers while there's still an SCR which will make them a moneymaker. Also, Rite Aid has a few of the old Pampers Cruisers left, and I haven't been happy with the "new and improved" Dry Max ones... Anyone else having issues with them?
