This is a good week to roll Extra Care Bucks or get started with the program!

I stopped by CVS Sunday and purchased the Glade candle, Duracell batteries, Irish Spring body wash, Softsoap body wash, Johnson & Johnson trial-sized first-aid kits (coupons expire 8/31!) and a small case of beach toys (75% off). I used a $4.00 off $20 coupon from the Readyfill coupon booklet (ask your pharmacist for one of these if you haven’t already!) and manufacturer coupons. I spent less than $2.00 cash and the rest by rolling Extra Care Bucks. And I received $15.99 in Extra Care Bucks back to use in the next month.

Here are some of the best deals:

I visited two CVS stores today and one had summer items at 75% off, while the other did not, so it looks like the markdowns have just begun.
