Take the time to buy your Sunday paper. I cannot stress this enough. Seperate your ads, and figure out what you use in your household, if you see something for free and you aren't going to use it, make sure you give it to someone in need, or donate it to your local school. People really appreciate this kind of behavior.

I know I could have done two seperate transactions and had less OOP, however I like to have a little ECB's in my pocket. I love CVS for their great deals and money back.

I also received some free mouthwash from their August Special. Not bad for items I used to spend the regular retail price on!

Please leave a comment for me, or if you have questions let me know! I will be doing my Rite Aid shop soon and keep you posted on what is happening.
