CVS $5 Scenario - Week of 8/07/11

If your store is busy, the polite thing to do is to pay for a  couple transactions and step aside to let the customers behind you check out.  This not only keeps the other customers happy, but puts less stress on the cashier. 

If you are following my CVS $5 Scenarios, you have $3 and a $0.99 ECB  to start this week's shopping.
