CVS on Saturday at Overlapping Sales Store

The CVS where I like to shop(no mean old grumpy cashier! one),begins the new week's sale on Saturday. So if I go on Sat., I can do both this week's sale and the sale that is suppose to start on Sunday. This is a great thing usually, because it means I only have to make 1 trip to CVS every 2 Weeks and not miss a week's sale. Saves time, and gas money plus wear & tear on the car and the planet.
This week however, it caused a complication in my transaction.

I had $20 in Extra Care Bucks to roll, so here is what I picked up....

6x Vitamin Water @3/$4=$8
10x SoyJoy Bars @10/$5=$5

2x Colgate Max Toothpaste @$2.99=$5.98

2x Bayer Contour Meters @$14.99=$29.98

3x 12-pack Cokes @3/$12 **=$9.75 NOT PICTURED

**Ok, this was a problem having overlapping sales. The Cokes were suppose to be 3/$12 and buy $20 worth, get $10ECBs. But the sale that started on Sunday had buy 4 Coke 12 packs, get 1 Free(or $3.25 ea.). Asked before I checked out which sale would ring up and nobody knew.

I had planned to get Mini Wheats Cereal too so I could use the other $10ECB I had and lower my OOP, but they were out of cereal. Dang it!

The $4 Colgate ECB(2x$2) & $10 Bayer Meter ECB(2x$5) printed but the Coke $10ECB didn't print, because the lower price on the Cokes left me $2.25 short of spending $20 on Coke products.

So I went back in and explained to the Manager what happened and asked if I could buy 1 more Coke 12 pack and get the Free 5th one. He said ok so I bought....

1x Coke 12 pack @$3.25

Bottle of Aspirin $1.99 (for the doggy-she hurt her back)

Total $5.24

Used $1 Q & $4ECB from the Colgate I just got

OOP $.24

$10 ECB printed for the Cokes AND I got a 12 pack Free! ;-)

I've still got $69RRs to roll forward over the next 2 weeks until they expire.
The next 2 weeks look pretty 'thin' in terms of things I want so it will be a challenge to find items giving RRs that I want to buy. If I bring another tube of toothpaste into this house I think Hubby will have me committed.lolol So, come on Wags, change it up a bit! Time for some RRs on stuff I need....like T.P. or Laundry Detergent or Juice. Enough with the toothpaste already.....geez!
