On sale BOGO was Neutrogena cosmetics so I purchased 2 blushes on clearance 50% off, and 2 facial makeup removers. I used 4 x $3/1 MQs = all FREE
2 12 packs of Diet Coke - I had enough overage because of the coupons and ECBs used to purchase these items to get the Diet Cokes.
Bic Truimph Roller Pens were also BOGO and I had IP MQs that made all of them free.
With everything you see pictured and including my taxes was less than $40.00.
Just the Starbucks at a regular price of $7.99 a 4 pack would have been over $160.00
Not a bad day shopping. However, later I did hit Target and Dollar General but that tale is for another day.

CVS Clearance Items - Fleece Throws & Socks



Tonight at the CVS at the corner of Jefferson & Bluebonnet, I found a basket full of fleece throws on clearance for .25 and another basket full of both men's & women's 6 packs of socks for .60. Needless to say most of them came home with me. My total for what you see in the picture (minus some throws that my sister and my son grabbed) was $28.00. This winter we should be good & warm and have toasty toes.
