2 Fiber One Bars

What a great week, I only spent $5.39 oop and once again I am ahead with ECBs. However, I used my ECBs to buy Father's Day cards, so I will have to start over with earning my ECB. And sadly the $3 off $15 coupons expire. I will be gone for two weeks so when I get back I will see what other CVS deals I can find.
* Extra Care Bucks (ECB) are coupons that print at the end of a receipt. They are like gift certificates that you can use toward your next purchase. CVS will have certain advertised items that earn you ECBs.
