For those of you interested in more details on our upcoming move and what an exciting answer to prayer this is for us, you’ll want to check out this post.
The only thing we’re a little sad to leave behind is CVS. Since Walgreens has been ramping it up when it comes to deals, I think I just might be okay without CVS. Maybe. At any rate, knowing that this move was a real possibility for the last little while, I’ve almost completely weaned myself off of CVS, just to make sure I could do it. And I’ve survived, just like the rest of you all who don’t have CVS learn to cope, too. 🙂
The good news is that we’ll be moving to a city with Kroger. After almost a year of living without my beloved grocery store due to its closing in the Kansas City area, I’m beyond thrilled the our new rental home is within a few blocks of a very nice Kroger store. Yay!
Besides Kroger and Walgreens, we’ll also have Target and Wal-Mart and another grocery store that offers double dollar coupons on occasion. So yes, with some minor tweaks to my shopping strategies, I think we’ll make it just fine.
I’d love to hear from those of you who don’t have a CVS store but do have a Walgreens: Do you find that the deals are good enough there to keep you fairly stocked with household/beauty products without spending much out of pocket?
(And by the way, rest assured, just because I won’t have CVS store
nearby anymore, the CVS deal postings here won’t be going anywhere. I
know that plenty of you will be helping me out to keep everyone who
does have a CVS store in the loop about things!)
