I love my Sunday morning shopping trips.  They’re so nice!

100_0385The CVS stuff is at the top and the Walgreens is at the bottom. I went to Walgreens first so I’ll start with that.

While I was at Walgreens, I gave the link to this blog to my favorite cashier.  Hi, Cynthia!  She gave me a Friends and Family discount card for tomorrow, so I guess that means I will have to go back tomorrow and buy more stuff… a shopper’s work is never done.

I have to defend my CVS trip a little bit.  I discovered while I was in line that I had $12 in ECBs about to expire on Tuesday, so I had to do a little last-minute shopping.  We are completely out of liquid hand soap, and the crackers were on sale, etc etc.  So, I paid more out of pocket than normal for that stuff, but much better than letting them expire.  Oh, and I still can’t believe I actually paid money for that Tide stain release stuff, but I have a two-year-old and I really wanted to try it.  Originally, the overage from the Glade candle/reed diffuser ($5 total) would have covered it, before the second round of shopping. 

Oh, and those crackers are better than Cheez-its, by the way.
