This Week's CVS Haul for $0.74.

I walked out of CVS today with the items pictured above for $0.74. 

Here's the breakdown of what I spent:

1. Two boxes of Post Honey Bunches of Oats. Purchase price: $3.99. They are on sale this week, 4/22-4/28, as buy one get one free. I had two coupons; one for $0.80/1 - Honey Bunches of Oats (couponnetwork.com) and one for $1.00/1 – Honey Bunches of Oats, 13oz or Larger – (facebook.com). Final Price: $2.19.
2. Three boxes of Fig Newtons, 8 oz., 3 for $4.00, on sale 4/22-4/28. I had two $1.00/1 coupons from facebook.com. This coupon is no longer available. Final Price: $2.00. The boys in my house love Fig Newtons. They were very happy to see me come home with three boxes of them.
3. Four Hallmark greeting cards. $0.99/each = $3.96. I had a $3.00/3 Hallmark cards coupon from cvs.com. I matched that with a buy 3 Hallmark cards get one free from the red coupon machine in CVS which took off $2.50. I like to stock up on kid's birthday cards since Alex is lucky enough to be invited to some birthday parties these days. Instead of having to run to the store for a card, I can just pull out my stack of cards and let Alex pick one.

This brought the total to $2.65. I had $2.00 in Extra Bucks from a previous purchase. With tax, my total came to $0.74. Not too shabby! I also got $3.00 in Extra Bucks for the Hallmark cards and $1.00 in Extra Bucks for the Fig Newtons.
