Welcome, my fellow CVS fanatics and newbies! It’s Sunday, time for our weekly CVS $5 Challenge. The place to go for simple CVS scenarios with step-by-step instructions.
Although it will most likely not work for a $5 scenario, you can still print a $5/$25 CVS coupon. There is a small 3-day sale at CVS this week, Sunday through Tuesday.
Don’t forget you can grab a clickable CVS $5 Challenge Button for your post or blog.
If you are a first time visitor, here’s the lowdown:
Join me on Sundays as I host The CVS $5.00 Challenge!
Seasoned CVSers: share your best scenario(s) for the upcoming week at CVS.
Your budget: $5.00 out-of-pocket cash.
Your mission: to grow that $5.00 into even more ECBs to use in upcoming weeks.
Want to participate? Start by reading the rules here.

The $5/25 coupon link didn’t work for me either. Isn’t it so great to bring home a bag full for under $5.00!?! I hope this helps other people save money as well.
