Greetings from California!
We arrived safely on Saturday after 12 long hours of traveling. So far we have enjoyed the beautiful weather, time with family, and the breathtaking scenery.
But last night, it was time to hit CVS. Take a look!
This was the largest CVS I have ever seen! I will definitely go again during my visit.
Shopping at CVS while traveling is an excellent way to save money on unexpected necessities. I never leave home without my Extra Care Bucks!
The makeup was obviously not a necessity, but it was free, and I can gladly pass it along to one of my three sisters.
I neglected to mention: my free gift for August was a CVS brand Ibuprofen. Sweet!
Hope you enjoyed the video, more to come!

Good night nurse. I have GOT to get on this CVS bandwagon. I feel so lost when it comes to coupons…you’re GOOD.

Great video! It’s always nice to hear what people sound like.
~I love how he let you use the coupon after you were nice about it. I tell my husband all the time…you get more flies with honey than with vinegar.~

You rocked it girl! Sorry to hear about your luggage, stinkin’ airlines! I had a problem with the CG BOGO coupon too. I ended up speaking to a manager to explain that I could use it, after speaking to him for a bit I could tell he was irritated but I was very respectful and polite, …well he ended up just giving me the 8.99 back in cash. So it ended up working out, just not in the right way. he he.
I received the same coupons from the machine that you did, in the same order too!
This weekend we are headed to CA and we are only going to be about 15 miles from Laguna Beach…maybe I will have to pop into that CVS and show them some coupon magic too!
Sweet video! Hope you are having a good time!

Great job, girlie! Looks like you got a lot for your money this week. I did really well this week, but had to splurge on eyeliner since I was out (still used the $1 CG coupon, just wasn’t a BOGO sale item), but everything else was really cheap. It was a great week for CVS shopping!

That’s great to hear that some CVS’s are actually happy to see couponers!!
Glad to hear that you had a good trip to the CVS store sorry that they lost your DD’s luggage!
Great video!

That was great! You are inspiring, I need to get more on it. I don’t know about the magic coupons at CVS, I wonder if we have that here in GA.

Alyssa – another great video!!! I sure do hope you get your stuff! I had to giggle when you said the cashier was surprised at your transaction – I’m guessing that Laguna Beach doesn’t see that one too often either

I have GOT to learn how to do this!

Great trip! I wondered how that make up deal was gonna go. I’m a bit worried to try the deal but I think I’ll do it this weekend.
Hope Leah’s luggage shows up!
