CVS Final Christmas Clearance (Olay & Vitamin Shampoo too!)
From tuesday, again, late posting..I'll catch up! I had to hit CVS one more time with the 90% off Christmas stuff! Well, truth be told, I hit about 5 stores..or was it 4? I won't detail what I got..it's all fluff for next year and now I'm done. Paper, bags, bows, boxes... a crazy amount of stuff. I also added water, crackers and toilet paper with the $3 CVS coupon from I heart CVS. WOW! What a coupon! My TOTAL spent (on my CVS gift card) was $20.81. Nothing OOP. The cool news? I got some Olay Definity mousse cleansers on clearance for $5 ea and had a $3/1 and a $1/1 coupon.. so for less than $7 I qualify for the $15 gift card rebate. I just hope it isn't good only on Olay products! OY! I also got a bottle of the Vitamin shampoo for $6.99 with rebate tag around bottle neck. So, for my $20.81 on a GC I can also mail away for both rebates $15 + $6.99 = $21.99. More than I spent on my gift card! Fun! See my pics for detailed amazement. Yours of course.
Warmly! Tracey C. $1200 budget $1008.46 left in budget

Great finds. Our store is 90% off too. I bought wrapping paper and some wine bags for next year.
ReplyDeleteHoly deals, Batman! What a haul you got! The Christmas clearance was really slim pickings in my area. That's okay, since we didn't need anything.
