CVS $5 Scenario - Week of 10/17/10

The most cost effective way to shop at CVS is to use ECB towards your purchase of  products that trigger more ECBs.  If you are following my CVS $5 Scenarios, you have a $5 and a $2 ECB to start your shopping with.

Remember, if CVS is out of stock on an item, ask for a raincheck. You still get ECBs with a raincheck.
