CVS Weekly Deals 8/30 - 9/5

For those of you who aren't familiar with wheelin' and dealin' at CVS...  Make sure you get an "ExtraCare card".  This card is used at CVS to get their weekly sales.  Some of these sales will give you "ECBs" - which is basically a paper gift card that prints up with your receipt that can be used towards ANY future purchase.  Remember to use your ECBs towards a purchase that is equal to or greater than the value of your ECBs, because any overage is lost (you do not get change back).  In the sale scenarios, any ECBs earned are considered the same as getting cash back because you can use the ECBs at CVS as just that.  Once you have some ECBs earned, you can use them towards further purchases.  Ex - This week you purchase a Glade Soy Candle at $6.99 and use a $4/1 coupon.  You pay $2.99 for the candle, but you get $6.99 in ECBs that you can use towards a future purchase, so you make $4 off of this deal!!
