new total: $0.06, get $6.99, $2 ECB, and $2 ECB

Totals: $41.69 at sale prices for $4.95 OOP ($1.95 if you do have the $3 Advil CVS Scanner Q).  Start with no ECBs, end with $10.99 in ECBs for a gain of $5.04.

I could have split this up into more transactions to keep the OOP super low, but I felt it was better to have fewer transactions since this is going to be a very busy time at CVS and many stores will run out of these items early.

  1. So theres not actually gonna b a blackfriday on the 11/23? These sales r starting on sunday?

    • Correct. The big sale for CVS will start this Sunday with around $100 total of freebies. Some of the deals will run all week long, but most are advertised to end on Wednesday. There are a handful of new deals for Thursday – Saturday, but they just don’t compare to the ones starting Sunday.
