CVS practically begs me to take merchandise out of their store each week! I love their Extra Care Bucks rewards program plus their stores are super clean and bright!
I began this week with $4, $2.49, $2 and $2 in ECBs. I am going to color code the ECBs from each transaction so you can easily see how to "roll" your ECBs to keep your out of pocket to a minimum. Please keep in mind, I have 5 CVS stores within a 5 mile radius of my house and I only do 1 to 2 transactions per trip. So here's what they begged me to take home this week:
