I'm so jealous! You did a great job.

Laurie said...

I had a few coupons that beeped that they wouldn't push through either...I was annoyed since they were perfectly legit.

I'm too wiped out from all that to even hit up Wags & Rite Aid this week.

Donna Rae said...

CVS rocks!!!! I always get my best deals there. I wonder how they stay in business with deal seekers like us in there all the time.

Jamie @ I Am A Money Magnet said...

Great trip! Glad everything you wanted was available that's always nice! The only thing i didn't get my hands on quick enough was a remote and headphones.

Melissa said...

you did awesome!! all my stores have been cleaned out since early Thanksgiving day.. I just didn't have the energy to go out Wed night but I should have!

Michelle said...

Looks good! I went at midnight, too. I made my oldest come with me - we were laughing the whole while, silly from being overtired.

I agree - everything was in stock - it was a good way to go.

JusFrugal said...

you did AWESOME! I am so jealous... I totally missed out on some stuff this time!

Heather said...

Wow, Lindsay! Great job! I usually don't get a CVS ad in my paper, but on Thanksgiving there was one and I was salivating over the deals. Unfortunately I've been stuck in the house working on this paper and couldn't devote any more time to shopping than I already had.

I'm proud of you. Way to save some bucks!
