Here is the love I received:<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><dl id="comments-block"><dt class="comment-author anon-comment-icon" id="c4506407612459298971">"Anonymous said... </dt><dd class="comment-body"> <p>I hope you know that every CVS employee absolutely hates you. People like you clog up our lines and take 45 minutes at the check out while other customers are waiting to actually buy something with real money."</p></dd><dt style="text-align: left;">Now, let me just post a very quick response to this. I have only been CVSing for a couple of months and I have heard many stories of nasty cashiers and managers. I know some employees don't like couponers. I think this is typical of employees who deal with inconsiderate couponers. There are ways to save money playing the "CVS game" and still be a customer that is actually liked.<br /></dt><dt style="text-align: left;"><br /></dt><dt style="text-align: left;">First off, I NEVER complete multiple transactions in a row if there are others waiting in line. I move to the back of the line for each new transaction. Sometimes I don't even bother getting in the line. I stand off to the side or browse a little more until there is no line.<br /></dt><dt style="text-align: left;"><br /></dt><dt style="text-align: left;">Secondly, I don't clear the shelves of product (unless there are only 1 or 2, in which case I consider that to be a stock issue, not a couponer caused issue.)</dt></dl><div style="text-align: left;">Finaly, I do NOT use coupons unethically. I feel there are plenty of money saving methods without trying to use expired coupons or coupons on products other than those they were intended for. I follow the rules and do my research which enables me to save a significant amount of money on products that my family uses or wants.<br /><br />In direct response to this comment I would also like to add that while some employees may not like seeing a customer "score big" there are many out there who enjoy it just as much as the customer. The employees at my local CVS know me by name. We talked about our families and our lives when I stop in to shop. The store manager makes it a point to save me a copy of any publication they have that has a coupon in it and actually walks the store with me to become more familiar with the best deals each week. Maybe I am blind to the "hate" they have for me because they do such a good job of hiding it, but I think it is more likely that not all employees dislike "people like me." In fact, in regards to the particular post the this comment was left under (the 90% off Essence of Beauty products) the employees that were working when I purchased my 2 bathrobes at $1.49 each all purchased the remaining 15-20 robes after I checked out. The employees at my local store appreciate the deals that I get because often they find a deal for themselves as well.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/86/4388A86316FF9F8FE66285A6A0D706FF.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;" /></a><br /></div></div></div>Brookehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14962556605370335188noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446527811318815333.post-20574451232969863032009-03-04T08:57:00.005-05:002009-03-04T09:17:10.360-05:00News Flash!!Attention CVS Shoppers!!! There are some MAJOR savings to be had this week!! Essence of Beauty (EOB) products are on sale in many stores for 90% OFF!!! That's about as close to free as you can get! YMMV as some stores have only reduced their prices by 75%. Look for EOB robes, travel sets, gift sets and more. Also, check the prices on perfume gift sets if your store carries them. Many of these have also been reduced. Rumor has it these items will return to full price when the stores download pricing for sales starting Sunday. If you manage to snag a great deal, don't forget to leave a comment!!Brookehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14962556605370335188noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446527811318815333.post-79526482012547118712009-02-28T23:47:00.003-05:002009-03-01T19:22:29.040-05:00CVS $5 Challenge 3/1-3/8If you're new to the CVS game here is a really easy way to turn $5 into lots of product and earn some ECBs to roll next week for more free stuff!<br /><br />Transaction 1:<br />Buy: 1 Gillette Fusion Gamer ($7.99)<br />Use: $4/1 MFQ (PG 2/8/09)<br />Total OOP: $3.99<br />Earn: $4 ECBs<br /><br />Transaction 2:<br />Buy: Carnation Instant Breakfast 10 ct ($4.99)<br />Use: $4 ECBs from Transaction 1<br />Total OOP: $.99<br />Earn: $4.99 ECBs<br /><br />Transaction 3:<br />Buy: Slim Quick Energy Shot 2 pk ($4.99)<br />Use: $4.99 ECBs from Transaction 2<br />Earn: $4.99 ECBs<br /><br />So...you leave the store with $17.97 worth of product.

Lots of videos on a variety of subjects and they are all screened by parents for content. (I'm not really sure how much I trust "parents" as everyone has a different opinion of appropriate content.) I did find a video that my son is in love with. If you have a dinosaur lover in your house it's called the dinosaur song and it really is quite cute. Be prepared though, it will get stuck in your head. You can expect to be singing "dinosaurs brains like peas" a lot in your future. So, if you have a sec and you wanna check it out click <a href="http://www.bzzagent.com//p/7623033361/campbell5060">HERE</a>, then come back and leave a comment with your child's favorite video!<br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/86/4388A86316FF9F8FE66285A6A0D706FF.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;" /></a>Brookehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14962556605370335188noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446527811318815333.post-8549587128045390132009-02-24T16:10:00.003-05:002009-02-24T16:38:12.002-05:00Out of the Mouths of BabesI don't know when it happened. You would think the exact day and time would be embedded in my memory forever, but looking back, I really don't know when it happened. At some point my sweet little baby boy became a vicious 4 year old. Don't get me wrong. He is still sweet most of the time, but when he isn't; oh boy is it bad. We are currently having a disagreement over where he is allowed to play. Mommy says we do not play in the kitchen, we play in the family room or your bedroom. Wyatt, however feels that the best shadows are in the kitchen. It is all about the shadows after all. I could give in and let him play dinosaur shadows on the kitchen floor. Is this really a battle worth fighting? I don't know. I seem to ask myself that question a hundred times a day. Today, I decided to hold my ground. His toys can be found in nearly every room of the house on most days. I do not want them in my sanctuary...my kitchen. After 15 minutes of heated discussion about where he is allowed to play we reach a decision. (Okay, I reach a decision.) I am not negotiating with a 4 year old! I very calmly tell him "Mommy is finished discussing this. We do not play in the kitchen and if you ask about it again you will be going to the time out chair." The next thing out of his little mouth: "But Mommy! I need to play the dinosaur shadows in the kitchen. Family room shadows are too dark. I need the big shadow!" So, to the time out chair he goes. There is no fussing or fighting. He sits with an angry scowl on his face fixing me with a glare that could chill bone. And then it happens. He breaks the silence in the room with one sentence. The one sentence no parent ever wants to hear from their child. "I don't love you, Mommy!" Now, logically I know that he is only 4. He doesn't understand the magnitude of what he has just said. There is no possible way that he could know how deeply that sentence would hurt me, but nonetheless, he said it. With defiance in his eyes and anger in his voice. So, now I'm left to wonder. When did this happen? When did my sweet angel turn into a 4 year old set on defying me at every opportunity? Oh, the joys of motherhood. I can only hope that he will get this attitude out of the way early so that we might live in harmony in his teen years. (I'm not an idiot. I know this is unlikely, but hope springs eternal!) Until then, I'm left to stare into the angelic face of a 4 year old little boy and wonder, when did 4 become the new 14?<br /><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/86/4388A86316FF9F8FE66285A6A0D706FF.png" style="border: 0pt none ! important; background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;" /></a>Brookehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14962556605370335188noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446527811318815333.post-60169712343452089302009-02-24T08:45:00.004-05:002009-02-24T09:27:20.264-05:00News & UpdatesIf you're looking to snag a free meal you've come to the right place!

It has been reported by a couple of people that the Gillette Fusion Phenom bonus pack will also print your ECBs. Verify the price first as some have reported it ringing up at $6 instead of $7.99. When this happens the ECBs are NOT printing! I was not able to find the bonus pack, but I did track down the Phenom Power without the extra goodies. It rang up at $7.99 and my ECBs printed without a problem! <span style="color: rgb(153, 255, 153);">Do you have any news or gossip about our favorite stores or great freebies?

This week's obsession was born about a year ago. My daughter was born February 6 of 2008. She was born with more hair than I had ever imagined possible. (Since her big brother was practically a baldy!) I tried different hair accessories for the first couple of weeks, but then I found Bows2Cute. I fell in love! With styles to match every outfit and personality it is impossible not to find something you love. In the past year Jamie has expanded to include hair accessories for every age. For me, the best thing about Bows2Cute bows is that I never had to correct annoying strangers. (You know the ones you run into at the grocery store who think you have nothing better to do than talk to them and then refer to your adorable little girl as "he" even though she is wearing head to toe pink!) Baby snappies and no-slips are great for newborns and they actually stay in! Now that my Lucy is a year old we are moving up to headbands, caps, and bigger bows. There really is something for everyone! (I've even ordered Bows2Cute bows for myself!) So join in my obsession! Visit<span style="text-decoration: underline;"> </span><a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.bows2cute.com/index.php">Bows2Cute</a> and see why I fell in LOVE! And of course, I can't share my love of the site without sharing a couple of pics of my daughter wearing Bows2Cute accessories!<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/85/DBD57475762F188CD5CCFC2DEBA4067D.png" style="border: 0pt none ! important; background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMSaf8VC0KXaFC8AnevpKuXYmItZ6JE-b6Ku8SuyBgqzu4MZOZNGu8b1Fok7aGqMWOb2OMHo2oHuD1QJ0knUKQcCC3Qobs12tBTN3OelVw6YrkJZKizp7B1xY25DHij_r7sX4SWdM7fQY/s1600-h/Blog+Obsessions+1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMSaf8VC0KXaFC8AnevpKuXYmItZ6JE-b6Ku8SuyBgqzu4MZOZNGu8b1Fok7aGqMWOb2OMHo2oHuD1QJ0knUKQcCC3Qobs12tBTN3OelVw6YrkJZKizp7B1xY25DHij_r7sX4SWdM7fQY/s400/Blog+Obsessions+1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5305467071284119970" border="0" /></a></div>Brookehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14962556605370335188noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446527811318815333.post-88732756022006496472009-02-20T23:10:00.001-05:002009-02-20T23:12:43.783-05:00PopATot Giveaway!!That's right all!

I'll list the transactions in order so it will (hopefully) be easy to follow. I was super excited about my purchases this week. I spent a little more OOP than I would have liked, but I got so much stuff and stocked up on soda, so it was definitely worth it! Okay, so here we go...hopefully this will make a little sense to someone other than me! Oh, and transaction #7 is a little strange. I don't know why, but my receipt was showing that I needed 2 more Suave to finish the deal so I bought them. I don't know how it got all funky because I know I bought 3 the first time, but who am I to argue with the all knowing register!<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Transaction 1:</span><br />(1) Gillette Fusion Gamer $7.99<br />Paid: $4 MFQ ($4/1 Gillette)<br />+ $3 ECBs= $.99<br />+ $.35(tax)= $1.34 OOP<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Earned $4 ECBs<br /></span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Transaction 2:</span><br />(2) Colgate Total Advanced $2.99 each=$5.98<br />Paid: $1.75 MFQ ($1/1, $.75/1 Colgate)<br />+ $4 ECBs= $.23<br />+ $.14(tax)=$.37 OOP<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Earned $5.98 ECBs</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Transaction 3:</span><br />(4) Herbal Essences Hair Care $2.99 each=$11.96<br />(1) J&J Buddies Bar Soap $1.19<br />Paid: $7 MFQ ($1/1 Johnson's, (2) $3/2 Herbal Essences)<br />+ $5.98 ECBs = $.17<br />+ $.51(tax)= $.68 OOP<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Earned $4 ECBs</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Transaction 4:</span><br />(3) Suave Body Wash $2 each= $6<br />Paid: $1.50 MFQ ($1.50/3 Suave)<br />+ $4 ECBs = $.50<br />+ $.14(tax) = $.64 OOP<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Earned $2 ECBs</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Transaction 5:</span><br />(6) Sprite 12 packs $3.50 each= $21.00<br />Paid: $1 ECBs = $20<br />+ $1.40(tax) = $21.40 OOP *I know it's high, but you can't get everything free!*<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Earned $10 ECBs</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Transaction 6:</span><br />(2) Mylanta Ultimate Mint $3.50 each= $7 *clearance price*<br />(3) Squid Soap $1 each= $3 *clearance price*<br />(2) Neutrogena Facial Bar Soap $2.99 each= $5.98<br />Paid: $4 MFQ ($4/2 Mylanta)<br />+ $10 ECBs = $1.98<br />+ $.42(tax) = $2.40 OOP<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Earned $10 & $6 ECBs</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Transaction 7:</span><br />(2) Suave Kids Shampoo $2 each= $4<br />(3) Colgate Total Advanced $2.99 each= $8.97<br />Paid: $2 MFQ ($.50/2 Suave, (2)$.75/1 Colgate)<br />+ $10 ECBs = $.97<br />+ $.21(tax) = $1.18 OOP<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Earned $2 & $8.97 ECBs</span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 255, 102);"><span style="font-size:130%;">Total Product Value: $83.07<br />Total OOP: $28.01<br />Total Savings: $55.06<br />EBCs Remaining: $6, $2, $8.97<br /><br /><br /></span><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 204);"><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">For more great CVS deals and "steals" check out The "Cent"sible Sawyer's CVS Superstars <a style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" href="http://thecentsiblesawyer.blogspot.com/2009/02/cvs-superstars-220.html">HERE.</a></span></span></span> <span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 204);">and Money Saving Mom's Super Savings Saturday <a style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" href="http://www.moneysavingmom.com/money_saving_mom/2009/02/super-savings-saturday-the-cameraless-edition.html">HERE</a> and The Thrifty Mama's Shopping Superstars <a style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" href="http://www.thethriftymama.com/2009/02/shopping-superstars-3.html">HERE</a>.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(51, 0, 0);"><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/85/DBD57475762F188CD5CCFC2DEBA4067D.png" style="border: 0pt none ! important; background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;" /></a></span><br /></div></div>Brookehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14962556605370335188noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446527811318815333.post-63458086727182572022009-02-18T19:35:00.003-05:002009-02-22T12:34:06.166-05:00Ohio Baby Bonanza!!!Hey hey!

Here's a little more info on the CVS front this week! First off, if you haven't done the monthly Mylanta deal, stop procrastinating!! This is an easy money maker! The latest on this deal is that the Ultimate Strength *Mint* has been added to the clearance list! If you couldn't track down the Ultimate Cherry, you have another chance! Print a $2 off coupon <a href="http://www.mylanta.com/">HERE</a> and remember, the limit on this deal is 5, so go make some bucks!<br /><br /><br />In other CVS news, the neutragena deal just got a little sweeter. No coupons needed for this one! It turns out that the 3.5 oz facial bar soap ($2.99 each) will produce ECBs! Purchase 2 of these and recieve $10 in ECBs! (That's right, you can make $4 and get some soap!) Rumor has it that the acne version is not working, but if you stick with the original or the fragrance free you should be sitting pretty! Here's a pic in case you're not sure what you're looking for!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdv0TGwplSZIMyWcv_fn7fTRkkBQipWu-81NlscJCWeEYlpGy2-jARgyWC2IvfnA-WhNfH54zi_eROq8ODC9dKBzAkI6XKJ-aJDEFo2L4TP7-nq7daDZycznyI0G0GeJrjtXZ-DEYMIz0/s1600-h/neut-762345.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 224px; height: 186px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdv0TGwplSZIMyWcv_fn7fTRkkBQipWu-81NlscJCWeEYlpGy2-jARgyWC2IvfnA-WhNfH54zi_eROq8ODC9dKBzAkI6XKJ-aJDEFo2L4TP7-nq7daDZycznyI0G0GeJrjtXZ-DEYMIz0/s320/neut-762345.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303645296737596002" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />Okay, now on to the Giveaway!

I've heard from several sources that the Diet Coke deal in this weeks ad works for ALL Coke varieties! Yay for Sprite!!! Extreme 6-hour Energy Shot limit is 2, not 1 in the monthly deal! So far it looks like the limit on the Herbal Essences deal really is 5. (Bummer since the coupon is for 2...an even number would have been fantabulous!) Also, Suave deal didn't print ECBs for me this morning (thankfully I checked my receipt) so be vigilant at the register! I think that is all for now. I'll get my shopping trips posted soon. I wanna pick up some soda first!!

Trip 2/10I promised an update for the week so here it is. No pics this time because, to be completely honest, I just didn't feel like stacking and snapping. I hit up Kroger for the Daytona event (not too exciting) and of course did a little CVS-ing. I'm not going to go through all of the Krogering because it is just too dull and I haven't the desire to break it down tonight, but I'll give you the cliff's notes version!<br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Kroger:</span><br /></span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Subtotal</span>: $86.49<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">M.Qs, Store Qs, and Loadables Savings</span>: $40.99<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Total OOP</span>: $45.50<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:130%;" >CVS:</span><br /><br />4 Glade aerosol sprays: $0.99 each = $3.96<br />1 Gillette Fusion Gamer Razor: $7.99<br />1 Glade Lasting Impressions Plug-in Starter kit: $6.99<br />2 Chase & Sanborn Coffee: $3.59 = $3.59 *B1G1*<br />1 Dawn Dish Soap: $0.99<br />2 Stayfree 18ct: $3.99 = $7.98<br />1 20ct CVS 30 gal trash bags: $4.29<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Subtotal</span>: $35.79<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Payment</span>:<br />(2) $1/2 Glade spray<br />(1) $4/1 Gillette Fusion<br />(1) $4/1 Lasting Impressions<br />(1) $0.50/1 Dawn Dish Soap<br />(1) B1G1 Free Stayfree<br />(1) $1 Glade CVS CRT<br />$15.99 ECBs<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Total Due + Tax</span>: $5.38<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">ECBs Earned</span>: $4, $4, $2<br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 102);font-size:180%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold;">Total OOP: $50.88</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Total Savings: $71.40</span></span><br /><br /><br />**My CVS OOP was a good bit higher than I would have liked, but I really needed the Dawn, coffee, and trashbags so I blew a few more ECBs than I would have liked in order to keep the total shopping costs down a little for the week.**Brookehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14962556605370335188noreply@blogger.com0
