CVS 9/15

I made a couple of trips to CVS today. The ad isn't that great this week but I had to roll some of my ECBs so I HAD to go. I also found some ECBs that had expired and in the past my CVS' have not accepted expired ones. I was almost sick since I had close to $10 in ECBs that had expired back on 9/11. I got to the store and approached one of the managers. I explained to her that I had a couple of expired ECBs and wondered if they ever accepted them. I told her I had read on a couple of blogs that some stores do take them. She asked to see them and said that since they were from the same calendar month she would take them! I was SO happy :) Sue, if you're reading this, you're the best!! Here are my transactions:My card:

I could not pass up the great deal on the Air Wick mini's! They sold so well at the garage sale that I figure I can keep these until I have the next one. I did pay quite a bit for the second purchase but that was mainly because I didn't have the ECBs to cover the cost of the energy shots. While digging out my ECBs to use I found TWO more that had expired :( I asked the cashier at the second store if I could use them and she didn't know. She explained her manager wouldn't be in for another hour and she didn't want to take them without her approval. Tomorrow I might go up to the other store and use those ECBs. I have no idea why I missed those ECBs and let them expire. I'm going to have to keep better track of them!

I still have more Air Wick coupons to use and some of those expire on the 20th so I'm going to pick some more of them up. I also noticed at the one location they were finally getting some of their school items restocked. I have a ton of rainchecks for those still so I might try to get those used up. We'll see how it goes.
