CVS and Wags

OK, as usual, I got up to the stores only to discover some of the things I though I was going to get are either out of stock or a much higher price than others have been finding. So, I did come up iwth a few things. That is why I am reluctant to post something until I have tried it myself, I don't want to give out info only to have to go back and correct it. Anyway, I went to the CVS that I don't usually go to and of course I had problems. First of they don't accept any internet coupons no exceptions- I knew this going in so I didn't bring any to use. Secondly if it doesn't scan or if it beeps in error they will not override regardless- even if the picture clearly shows the item you are purchasing (which is what happened tonight so I had her remove the items from my purchase). Third, I have rarely seen any of them smile- it is weird. The other CVS just a little farther away is so different a whole different atmosphere. I like going to that one but I really though, ok it is later in the evening maybe it will be better. Was I wrong- oh well I will make sure and go to the other one from now on.

I also had notice the filter water pitchers were on sale for 7.99 (reg 9.99) and I did get the filter free after rebate last month so I decided to use RR to get a pitcher.

I know these these transactions did not go exactly as planned and I spent more ECBs then I earned but overall the trips were decent. I am still looking for the Reinventing Beauty Book- the lady had said they were out a few days after they got them so I am hoping they will get more. She did show me where to look for them at though so I know they exist!
