Bargain Quest

I think we’re set on toilet paper til the baby’s potty-trained…

OK, maybe not quite, but 100 double rolls of Cottonelle will last us quite a while. Net cost from CVS in the deal I did? $9.50 plus some tax, less than 10 cents a roll.

The deal is that the special 20 roll bonus packs are now half-price, $4.99 (down from $9.99) and each generates $2 in ECB’s as part of the January monthly promotion. (Limit is 5 per ExtraCare card) Combined with $.50 manufacturer’s coupons and $ off $$ CVS coupons, they are uber-cheap!

Here’s a simple scenario -
-Buy 4 packs x $4.99 = $19.96
-Add a little filler to bring your total over $20, like a $.25 pencil = $20.21
-Use a $4 off $20 CVS coupon = $16.21
-Use as many manufacturer coupons as you have, up to 4 x $.50 = $14.21
-And receive $8 back in ECB’s
So $6.21 net cost (plus tax) for 80 rolls.

Can you ever have too much TP?

While at CVS, you might as well use a $10 off $50 coupon instead and get your free after ECB Stayfree pads, Speedstick, SoyJoy, etc. Crystal has all the scoop on this week’s hot deals.
