I have a new obsession now - it's coupons and CVS (like Walgreens, if you don't have one.) However, if you are fortunate enough to live by a CVS and you don't shop there, then I must say, that you are really missing out!
What's so great about CVS? Well, they give Extra Care Bucks back for certain items you buy - these are coupons for a certain amt. off your next purchase. When you combine the ECB (extra care bucks) and regular coupons, you can really get things cheap or my favorite, FREE!
I went yesterday and only spent 5.94 and for that - I got all of this:
2 Lysol cleaning products (2 for $5 and had .50 coupon for each)
Excedrin (free after coupon and CVS sale!)
greeting card for Blake
2 baby bottles (Buy one get one 50% off)
2 mens deodorant (this generated my only $6 in ECB, and also had $1 off coupon)
toothpaste
After all of my coupons and all of my previously earned ECB, I only spent 5.94 for all of that! I'm hooked now - it's like a game to me. I can't wait to see what I can do next week! :) (yes, I'm a dork now...)

I have simply got to get to CVS and check this out!! Tons of people have been telling me about this! Thanks for the reminder.
I have heard of the great deals at CVS - I just need to check it out.
Thanks for sharing!
Just keep in mind that ECBs expire! Be very wary of "deals" involving them if you're like me and forgetful of a) that you have them and b) where you put them!
But if you're organized and disciplined enough to use these, then they _totally_ are an awesome deal!
Did you see this past Wednesday Walgreens had a free refill on printer ink?
Of course, I didn't need any but still it was exciting. LOL
