Well....... It didn't go as planned. Of course (Hi Murphy's Law.. sod off please). There was only one Bic Soleil left so it threw me off. I forgot a few things, grabbed the wrong chocolate bar.

There is a good chance....

that I might need a new binder already. I just got this a few weeks ago when I started getting more serious about the coupons.

I've got my binder armed with 20 card holders, 8 dividers, 2 pencil holders, my scissors, a notebook, ziplock bags for easy access to coupons I will be using, and of course my CVS ads.




Good bye 1" binder, it was nice toting you around with me. You will be re-purposed to hold entire coupon booklets so I don't have to spend time clipping until I need to, and so I have ALL the coupons.

Hi, it's me again. =P

First of all CVS must take joy in messing with people who tend to be a little ... obsessive compulsive. I had heard yesterday of a $5/$30 Q e-mail that people were getting. Of course my mailbox remained empty, as always. I had my wonderful scenario all set up and pretty from last night (as shown in my last scenario post) and I was rather happy with it. I should have checked my e-mail again last night after I woke up from my late nap. At 6:34pm the Q hit my mail box. I don't know if I should do a happy dance or face plant into my laptop.

So what did I just spend a few moments doing? Yeah, re-working my scenario. Someone needs to make me a nice little button to go on my page stating how much of a CVS Freak I am. O_O

I swear to you if anything else changes in the next ~14 hours I'll refrain from posting it. ;)

Thanksgiving is cramping my planning!

I went to the Kroger website at like 2am fully expecting to see the new weekly ads as per usual. No dice. I checked Sprout's, same. Thanks a but load Thanksgiving for cramping my meal planning for the next 2 weeks. Now I have to wait. I even went and looked in my freezer in the garage at 2am to see what I still had for protein.

Looks like I only have to shop for a few items needed to make a couple of the meals, perishable items, and quickly used stuff.

I don't think I need to say anything...

Yes. I'm slightly ashamed, but I couldn't resist re-working it just to see if there was something a little better. This way I would pay 1c OOP. Although since I'll need fillers I might end up with a little OOP, but I would have chocolate.

I also re-adjusted it because the pillows and spa sets this week have been ringing up with a limit of 2. If it shows that I haven't reached my limit then I continue on with transaction #4, if it shows I've reached my limit I put them back. I'm just trying to make things as easy as possible on me and my cashier tomorrow.

Impatient.

Is it Wednesday night yet? I'm antsy to see how all this CVS goodness works out. I've got to keep my self amused with Thanksgiving food prep or I'll be redoing my scenario AGAIN. Well .. I might do an alternate version because I can, and because I like it.
