***CHEAP Tide laundry soap & Dawn Soap (this week only)***

Alright my couponing friends, here is your first GREAT deal!  If you read yesterday's blog, I mentioned there were some great scenarios for cheap items coming up this month & to be sure to get your inserts!  For this specific scenario you need to get out your P&G insert that were in that newspaper you all ran to the store to get (ok, you probably didn't even get ONE but you can now sit here reading this & wishing that you would've listened to me, lol).

This week (9/29-10/5) at CVS they have Tide laundry soap on sale for $5.94 each.  They also have Dawn soap on sale for .99 each.  Part of the deal this week only is spend $20 on the items shown below, get $5 ECB (ECB = extra cash back, basically it's store credit to be used for any future purchase).  Keep in mind that both sale prices are only valid if you have a CVS card (this is NOT a credit card it is a rewards card.  This card is FREE for anyone just go to the checkout desk & ask to get one).

 We're going to be utilizing the Tide and Dawn from this ad for the spend

$20 get $5 ECB scenarios, although you can pick and choose what you

want for your scenarios depending on your coupons.

Before doing the scenarios below, be sure to scan your CVS card at the redbox located towards the front of the store.  In fact, each time you go into a CVS, scan your card.  This machine prints out coupons for the store that can be combined with your manufacturers coupons.  You may even get lucky and get the $3 off $15 purchase or $4 off $20 purchase that's been printing lately and will save you even more for the following scenarios:

*If you received a $3/15 = $12.04 oop
**If you received a $4/20 = $11.04 oop

Just keep in mind, if you don't get a $3 off $15 purchase or $4 off $20 purchase, just add the amount back into the above scenarios oop price.  Either way you do it, this is still a stock up price & a great time to get 3 bottles of each.  The get $5 ECB with a $20 purchase is limited to 2 rewards per card meaning you can do the above mentioned scenarios twice and get up to $10 ECB.  If your wanting the $10 ECB (6 of each bottle), I would recommend doing 2 different transactions that way after you get the first $5 ECB, you can apply it to your second transaction making it even cheaper!!!


Now get out there and get your soap while you can!
