Drugstore Diva!

Rite-Aid was blah for me this week. But CVS and Walgreens pulled through. I believe in only getting items I'll actually use, so if you want a more detailed list of goodies, look at the "Cent"sible Sawyer for the CVS scenarios.

CVS
The flyer this week was advertising 12-pk. Coke products 3/$8 with $2 ECBs when you buy 3, limit 6 12-pks. I was excited but arrived to find a sign at the store saying that it was a misprint. ARGHH! Lame.
