CVS Trip 1/2/2012

It was nice to get back in the swing of couponing at CVS.  I took a break since the deals for the past few weeks were not all that great.  Thanks to the Extra Care Bucks for the last quarter of the year being available for me to use today I was able to make a great CVS trip.  Check your email or scan your Extra Care Card at the coupon machine inside CVS to see how many Extra Care Bucks you earned.  I also received a $5 off $25 coupon via email from CVS. You can check your Extra Card Bucks at the CVS website.
