I don’t post a lot of my shopping trips. They usually aren’t much to holler about. I am proud of myself today so I thought I’d share. It’s also a reminder of what YOU can get for FREE when you shop at CVS.
When you walk in the door at CVS go directly to the coupon machine. Don’t let ANYTHING distract you. 🙂 Today I scanned my card twice and got the following:
expire the day after printed…
expire 1 week from day printed…
Pay close attention to the expiration dates. They very and the freebies usually expire right away.
So this is what I got for $18.68 out of pocket.
1 Reece peanut butter cup (They were out of the Caramellos. The cashier said I could sub any Hershey product up to 1.19) FREE
1 CVS brand 20 count fabric band-aid 4.29 FREE
2 Myoplex chocolate protein shakes 4 pk 11.99 marked down to 2.99 each! (18 savings) $5.98
2 Nuance Salma Hayek Dark Cacao & Coffee Firming Body Cream 14.99 B1G1 – (2) $2 off any Nuance item) $10.99
2 Nuance Salma Hayek Detoxifying Facial Cleansing & Toning Towelettes 7.99 B1G1 – (2) $2 off any Nuance item) $3.99
1 French Tip strips 2.87
$23.63 – $5 ECB = $18.63
TOTAL SAVINGS OF $40.26 🙂 🙂

CVS tweaked their coupon policy effective July 1, 2011. This is all second hand information taken from other blogs. (Thank you Budget Savvy Diva) CVS does not post their policy online. If you have any doubts or questions please contact your local CVS before you shop.
- You can no longer use 2 coupons on a B1G1 sale. This means you cannot use a B1G1 along with another $ off manufacturer coupon.
- You CAN still use a B1G1 coupon on a B1G1 sale. You can also continue to use a B1G1 along with a CVS coupon.

Until a few days ago you were only allowed one Swagbucks account per household. On July 12, they posted a new policy on their blog announcing everyone in a user’s household could sign up for their own account. There are still a few stipulations.
– We won’t be linking accounts if one of you doesn’t refer the other.
– This policy is in effect moving forward, and doesn’t retroactively apply to older situations where multiple accounts in a household were discovered.
– We’re still only allowing one account per individual. Multiple accounts per person are still expressly prohibited and will be shut down.
What all of this means is that you can now refer your spouse, brother, sister, roommate, live-in aunt or any other person in your household, making for more swagging fun in every house! We’re very excited to have this change take effect, because it allows us to include a lot more people in the Swag Nation.
During my daily ritual of liking everything on Facebook and signing up for everything in the free world, I saw a post about Shecky’s.
I have a lot of navigating to do now that I’ve signed up. There is a lot about this website. It’s more than a social community for women. What really grabbed my attention is that fact you can earn goodie bags. I’m going to go see if I can maximize my membership. I’ll leave you to read more about Shecky’s
Taken from their website…
Hello ladies,
Some of you have known us for a while and some of you are visiting us for the first time.
So you must be wondering: “What is Shecky’s?” or “How has Shecky’s evolved?”
Take a minute to think about some of the happiest and hardest times you’ve been through in your life.
Now…imagine what those times would have been like—without your girlfriends?
At Shecky’s, we believe girlfriends are a source of strength, nurture and inspiration that women should always appreciate. That’s why we’ve made it our mission to create social experiences that empower and reward women to discover and socialize with their girlfriends.
Our Girls Night Out events have been serving this purpose for 10 years. Yup, today Shecky’s hosts up to 80 girlfriend-gathering events across America! And since we want to entertain women everywhere but can’t host events in every nook and cranny across the globe, we’ve launched a new Sheckys.com for women to discover, experience and get rewarded in a more dynamic and interactive fashion wherever they may be.
The new Sheckys.com is a different kind of community where women can:
- Connect and contribute on life’s most consuming topics: love & relationships (No Boys Allowed), career (a.k.a. our identity outside of being a daughter, girlfriend, mother… on Work It, Girl!), the way we look and feel (Makeover Manual), how to throw the perfect party (Haute Hostess) and more.
- Discover advice, inspirations, trends and tips from Shecky’s collection of contributors and experts… along with real stories from fellow members in the community!
- Stay in touch with some of your favorite brands from Girls Night Out (and beyond!) by becoming a fan of their showcases, and nominate any new, undiscovered brands to us.
- Access “members only” girlfriend events hosted by Shecky’s and our cool partners.
- Personalize your profile—the more we understand you, the more we can cater articles, events and rewards to be the best Sheckys.com for you.
And oh my goodieness! You can earn “OMG Points” all around the site (Here’s how!). Every 5,000 OMG Points gets you a free Goodie Bag!
We hope you love the new Shecky’s and think of us your ultimate girls club or escape. We also hope you spread the word to your girlfriends that Sheckys.com is a wonderful place to congregate, spread girlfriend love and get rewarded while doing so.
May this be the beginning of a beautiful friendship!
Xoxo,
Shecky’s Team
I’m late in posting a “preview” of LAST Sunday’s coupon inserts. Yesterday was the first day I felt better. Anyway.. I’m still going to post them, because I need input. I half understand the premise behind regions getting different coupons. I have a Target. A friend of mine doesn’t have one close by. I understand some values are different. Different regions have different costs of living. What I don’t understand is out of 40 coupons (yes, I counted them) I got 13 from SmartSource. Out of 40 Redplum I got ten.
No pet coupons. (We have pets in Montana) Only a few cereal coupons. (Who doesn’t eat cereal, I mean really?) No L’Oreal coupons. (We must all be bald and faceless) I could go on and on. It’s bad enough this is my second rant on the subject.
Here is the inserts from Sunday. The ones with * by them and that are bold, are the coupons I got. Next to the expiration date I put what the value was on my coupon. (Redplum was the only one that had differences in value.)
Does anyone know if there is a preview of upcoming coupons per region? It’s frustrating when I see the preview and plan on getting X amount of papers only to be crooked.
PLEASE comment if you have the same issue or if you have suggestions.

*** I did not write this. I found it on “Living Rich With Coupons“.
Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray the Lord my soul to keep,
My shopping trip I pray you Bless,
My binder is neat, no longer a mess,
The coupon limit they say is Ten,
But please let me go through the line again!
Bless the cashiers that they not be weary,
Please help me be bright and cheery!
Remind us that the money we save
will allow us to be the ones who gave.
Please Bless Cindy with Living Rich,
her help will make this go off without a hitch!
Thank you Lord for my family and friends
and thanks for triple the coupons until it ends!
Lord, be with me through the night
And keep me ’til the morning light.
AMEN!
I hope you all enjoyed your long weekend last week. I did for the most part. I’m not sure what I did, but in the process of doing I-don’t-know, I hurt my neck. I have a pinched nerve or ?? and have a constant throbbing headache. Luckily I had a doctor appointment on Tuesday for other purposes. My doc checked my neck out, gave me muscle relaxers *muah* and a script for 4 weeks of physical therapy (neck message). I’ve been out of sorts all week thanks to the meds, but over all I’m doing peachy.
As for coupons… I’m so angry at myself. I let SEVERAL expire. Coupons for stuff that I used, went to waste. OK not so much. I just added them to my Coups For Troups pile. I just wish I could have shopped and used them. *whine*
I’m sure there will be more down the road. I’m still learning the ropes here in coupon land.
I hope July is treating you well this far. I’ll be back with more posts. I got a lot of goodies in my snail mail box and can’t wait to share them.
