Hooray for cheap groceries! I made 2 stops today, CVS and Shoppers even though I was feeling a bit under the weather. I really had to force myself to get out of the house but we needed a couple of things at both places and I wanted to take advantage of the $10/$50 coupon I had for Shoppers with the triple $.50s and double $1.00s coupon promotion.

First stop was CVS:

$4.50 Stayfree Ultra pads with wings (32 ct)
$4.50 Stayfree Ultra pads with wings (32 ct)
$6.49 Viva 8-pack paper towels
$6.49 Viva 8-pack paper towels
$1.39 Kotex lightdays 16ct
$4.99 Platex Sport tampons 16ct
$5.99 Zipfizz pink lemonade
$5.99 Zipfizz pink lemonade

- $2/$10 CVS coupon
- $1/1 Viva
- $1/1 Viva
- $4.50 Buy 1 Get 1 Free Stayfree coupon
- $1/1 Playtex Sport
- $3 Extrabucks
- $5 Extrabucks
- $5 Extrabucks
- $10 Extrabucks

= $7.84 OOP

Received the following in Extrabucks:
$2 for the Viva
$5 for the Stayfree
$3 for the Playtex
$11.98 for the ZipFizz
$1.49 for the Kotex
= 23.47 back in Extrabucks!

The boyfriend will only use Viva paper towels so now we are set for quite some time!

I was pretty pleased with myself after CVS and just as pleased at Shoppers. I'm not going to list all the coupons I used, but I bought a good deal of stuff, 33 items in total, including meat and vegetables, and spent $32.45 (thanks to the $10/50 coupon from Post Points and all the multipliers - the sliced turkey turned out to be a mere $1.79 per package - usually $3.79 - with the doubled $1 coupons!).
