CVS: Week of 1/25

I'm getting a late start with CVS this week. Its an okay week for me, nothing spectacular, but some free stuff. Here's what I see: (remember, this is just my list --- if you want a really exhaustive list go to IHeartCVS -- she's amazing!!)

Gillette Fusion Gamer, Venus Breeze Spa or Embrace Sister Razor ($7.99)
get $4 eb (the stated limit is 1, but there are reports all over the web that the actual limit is 5 -- we'll be going nuts with razors at my house if that's the case
Use; -$4 Gillette Fusion Razor, any P & G 12/28/08 (do be aware that the razors are not supposed to be available until the afternoon of 1/30 -- which since I'm getting started late this week, shouldn't be a problem for me at all!!)

Head & Shoulders, Gillette, Pantene Restoratives or Expressions shampoo, conditioner, mask or balm ($4.99)
get $3 eb
Limit 5
use -$2 Gillette shampoo/conditioner/styling product 1/18/09 P&G


Mentos bogo (2/$1.69)
use: -$1 Mentos Gum, any SS 12/14/08

Almay get $5 eb wyb $10
Limit 3 (although the ad states that this is the $1.99 soaps, it has been reported that the almay soaps priced $.99 also count towards this deal. If that's true, then you end up with a great deal and you can actually make some money on it.
Use -$1 Almay Cosmetic or Skincare Product, any SS 12/14/08
Buy 11 or the soaps for free after coupons and get $5 ECB back.

I'm not usually big on the soda deals since we don't drink the stuff at our house, but the inclusion of the pita chips is tempting me.
Buy 7 bags of Stacy's pita chips at $3 each
Use 7 $1.50/1 coupons from the 1/25 insert
Spend $10.50 plus tax out of pocketGet $10 ECBs back

Also, don't forget this is the last week to make use of the January free after ECB deals:

• Buy SoyJoy bars 6-pack at $6.00, Earn $6 ECBs $3/10 coupon from 1/04 SmartSource insert (there are reports that this coupon is working for people. My CVS wouldn't take it since there weren't 10 UPC scans only 2)
