Does your CVS have a price scanner in their isles? Did you know that if you swipe your CVS card there it will print out CVS coupons? This is one of my first stops every time I go to CVS. This week I got a $2 off Stayfree coupon…this works great because Stayfree is on sale for $3.99 giving you $2 bucks back, which makes the pads $1.99, so after using the coupon that makes them free! Or if you are like my mom, she usually get some kind of $/$$ off coupon!

- 3 Promax bars $5.00
- 2 Brut deodorants $7.58, used 2) $1 off Q’s
- 2 Stayfree pads $7.98, used 2) $2 off CVS Q’s
- Extreme Energy drink $4.99
- used $18.48 in ecb’s
Total OOP: $1.30, with $17.99 in ecb’s for next time! I also got a $3 off 2 John Frieda hair products Q printed on the end of my receipt.

Here it is, my Black Friday run! I had so much fun. I don’t think I have ever seen so many coupon ladies at one time! It was nice to see you all!
Long story short, Wednesday night I went to make up my game plan for Thursday’s run
and could not find any of my ecb’s! So, I had to start the morning with NO ecbs. This helps explain why I did so many transactions below. I spared you the many pictures and just posted one. I did end up finding my ecb’s in the morning when I went shopping, they were sitting in the car! Sometimes all my organization is a curse!

So, how did you do? I’d love to hear! Do you want to see how others did too, check out Money Saving Mom’s site for more Super Savings Saturday!
I misread the Apple Market ad for last week, apparently, it is still running through today. I will get next week’s ad posted by Friday. Sorry for the inconvenience!
No trip to CVS this week…yet! I am not going to go until Thursday morning. CVS is starting their Black Friday sale on Thanksgiving Day…and yes, I am crazy enough to go. Does anyone want to meet me there?! Topeka’s CVS opens at 8am on Thanksgiving Day, Lord willing, I’ll be there.
There are about 14 items that you can get FREE after ecbs! Here is a link to see what all is available: Hot Coupon World Black Friday List and take a peek at The “Cent”sible Sawyers site.
Happy shopping! I will post later to let you know if I survived!! (This is only funny to anyone that knows me, because I don’t enjoy shopping (although CVS has been an exception–I think because it is kind of like a scavenger hunt), and I NEVER go to the store for Black Friday sales.)
