So….
Total OOP (out of pocket): $46.61
Total Rebates: $26.40
Total Net Cost: $20.21
Total Saved (including rebates): $137.58
Definitely not as good as I had planned…my original scenerio had me earning a profit, but items being out of stock and last minute calculations and need items made things go very wrong.
I let enticing deals drive me into the arms of another drugstore. If CVS will take me back, I’ll never stray again….

  1. Such a sence of humor! Your so funny at times. CVS loves when you come by you know they do. I have come to love CVS myself, no more Walgreens. I enjoy reading your blogs by the way. Keep it up!
