CVS deals 5/31 - 6/6

Under each sale item in bold print is listed any coupons (Q) that were available in certain papers and any printables available and so on. If you are confused or need help, please let me know. Once you start collecting coupons, you will have the ones listed.

Honestly - this is not a good week to start with, but if you want/need any of this stuff or use quite a bit of any of these, let me know and I will come up with a scenerio for you to get the best deal for your buck.

CVS - how to start

Okay, with CVS you have to look at the deals and stock up when they are on sale. That way you have items on hand and not pay full price when you do actually need them. I get a lot of my personal items at CVS now - diapers, body wash, soap, toothpaste, medicine, and more! The trick is to get the items that give you Extra Bucks back on certain sale items. To do this, you do need a CVS card. You can sign up for one at CVS and have it that day or you can go to CVS.com and get one mailed to you within a week or two.

With Extra Bucks (EB) and coupons (Q) combined - you can get awesome deals and the game is to try and keep your extrabucks rolling over - Extrabucks (EB) is like money to use on your next purchase and can only be used at CVS. I will explain some scenerios with every week to helpy ou get started and get you on track. If you want me to figure out how to get you the best deal for the week and know what you want to get, I will do my best.

Now, bare with me, this is very hard to explain and I know that it can be confusing at first, but once you get the hang of it - it is so easy!!!

Coupns

Okay - to get the best deals and savings, you need to start collecting coupons. Those are the key items for saving. There are also printable coupons, but you cannot always get by on those. Coupons always come in the Sunday paper (unless it is a Holiday week - then they do not have any) so always get a Sunday paper and make sure it is the Minot one as the Bismarck one never has all the coupons - not sure why that is. Store/organize them the way that works best for you. I use binders with those baseball card sleeves - they wrok the best. I will try and post pictures of mine soon. If you want help, please do not be afraid to ask. Also, if you ever want to subscribe to the magazine "All You" - they always have a TON of coupons to clip. Here are some links to printable coupons:
