JUMPING UP AND DOWN!!

When I walked into CVS to do my weekly shopping trip today I saw 2 buggies marked Clearance 90%. Usually when clearance gets to this point at my store it is basically junk. However, upon closer inspection, one of the buggies was FULL of Huggies Little Swimmers Swim Pants and Pampers Splashers!

So here is how my shopping trip went:

9 Packages of Huggies Little Swimmers .89 each + I had a few coupons!
5 Right Guard Deodorants
3 Revlon Nail Polishes
1 Loreal Skin Genesis
1 Contour Meter with 10 test strips!

Paid with $18.99 in ECBs and $3.32 cash. I had an ECB about to expire that caused me not be able to get the OOP down lower. I should have bought a couple of more packages of Swim Pants to bring my total up, but I'm not complaining. Got back $29.99 in ECBs. An earning of $7.68 ECBs.

Just for the record, I did leave several packages of Swim Pants in the buggy.

This is the best part. I saved it for you to see if you were still reading. When I was going over my receipt tonight, I was thinking to myself too bad nothing on this receipt counts towards a rebate. Then it occurred to me that there was a possibility that each of the Huggies Swim Pants would count towards the Caregivers Marketplace Rebate. I ran to find my binder with the form in it and literally started jumping up and down (sorry no video) when I saw that each package would qualify for a $1 rebate. According to HCW people have gotten back the full $1 amount on clearance swim pants.

Now, I just need the Little Man's skin sensitivities to go away and to ask his Daddy for a beach vacation next year.

  1. There's no video evidence, but I can attest to the extended period of literal "JUMPING UP AND DOWN! JUMPING UP AND DOWN!"
