CVS: Deals for the week of May 18-24, 2008

Here are the best deals I see for this week:

Note: If you haven’t yet bought your Tums Quik Paks (monthly ECB deal–see below), be sure to do so this week or next week

OTHER DEALS OF NOTE

Buy 2 SOBE waters, Get $1 ECBs (Monthly deal)
Use B1G1 coupon here
These
run in price from $1.49-$1.69 so after the B1G1 coupon and $1 ECB, it
makes a great filler. There have been reports of people not getting
their ECBs when buying this, though, so you may have to call corporate
if your ECB doesn’t print. (Thanks, Centsible Savings!)

If you are new to CVS-ing, FishMama has a great post here
which walks you step-by-step through how to get started and get some
great stuff for very little out of pocket and then have some ECBs to
use for the deals next week!

From Carrie:

Those
10 free photo coupons that came along with the $3/$15 coupon are very
useful for bringing your total up to $15. It did not occur to me until
I used one today that the photos would be rung up at full price along
with the other purchases. At my CVS, 10 photos are $2.79. So if you get
10 photos, you only have to buy just over $12 worth of other stuff to
use the $3 off coupon.
