I think the combination of a week of great deals and people having a 3-day weekend has caused products to fly off the shelves. Today I went to different locations to see what little I could find.

I had a better time at this CVS today, but what's up with the new coupon policy? They only take 3 coupons (with no distinction between manufacturer, CVS or ECBs) per transaction. This is really lame considering that we "earn" those ECBs with our previous purchases, honestly and fairly. It seems to me like CVS is catching on to super frugal shoppers and is forcing us to spend more of our money on purchases.
