I made a quick stop at CVS yesterday at the beginning of their sale, and I think I did alright. I was getting low on deodorant and I’m pretty picky about my Speed Stick, so I was happy when I found out about the $1/1 Speed Stick coupons in this weekend’s SmartSource. My mama also needed mouthwash, so those went to her.
After checking my CVS Extracare account online, I saw that I had the $2/$8 deodorant coupon and the $2/$10 toothpaste, mouthwash, or toothbrush coupon available to use, so that worked out nicely for me. You may or may not get these coupons when you scan your card, though, since your available coupons are based on your own spending habits.
Here’s a quick breakdown of my transactions…

I had ECB to use from last week, which is why I got the dish soap. However, if you’re starting with no ECB, you can skip the dish soap and pay $2.98 out of pocket and get $2 ECB.
Right Guard Xtreme Clear deodorant is also included in this sale, so you should also be able to use the $1.50/1 Right Guard Xtreme Clear or Clinical Clear Product from the 4/27 RP or the $1.50/1 Right Guard® Xtreme Clear® or Clinical Clear™ Product printable.
