CVS

Or..."Burning ECBs With A Vengeance"I didn't know if it would work, or really understand how it would work, but I had plenty of ECBs to experiment with, so I gave it a spin.

I had went to CVS on Monday and bought $25.00 worth of P&G items, and got a coupon for $10.00 off the Transformers movie.
Today I went back and bought $25.00 more worth of P&G items, and the movie. It took $10.00 off the price of the movie, and then I was able to use my $10.00 coupon from Monday. So I got the movie free.

Of course I spent more on the P&G products than I could have just bought the movie for, but that wasn't the point of it. Mostly I just wanted to see how it worked.
I really, really wish I had did it last time with the Aliens Vs. Monsters movie/Cokes/Candy deal.

I spent more on the P&G products today than Monday, but this time I got stuff we will actually use. Not that we don't use shampoo, but I am already stocked up on so much shampoo I'll end up giving it away.

I also bought $20.00 worth of candy. I have so much chocolate, I thought we needed the Wonkas for some variety.

They didn't have any Glade Sense&Spray or Lasting Impressions.
