$5 & $10 CVS Scenarios for the Weekly Ad of February 7, 2016

Below are deal scenarios for the CVS ad for the week of 2/7/16.   These are great for shoppers just starting their CVS shopping adventure or who do not have any or many extra bucks on hand and do not want to spend much cash. There are scenarios for $5 out of pocket cash and $10 out of pocket cash.  TWO NOTES:  #1-the final transactions of each scenario don't get ECBs, but is a good deal, but if you're not interested in it,you can skip it. #2-I included Hallmark cards in the first transaction of each scenario, if you store doesn't carry Hallmark you can just skip that part, it's not key.

You can save the extra bucks left from the last transaction for next week’s extra buck deals and have even less out of pocket then, or you could use them towards some of the CVS deals this week or other sale items from this week's CVS Weekly Ad.
