I was a bit rushed today, so I passed on a few deals that were pretty decent and only focused on the great deals. It is possible that I will go back to CVS later in the week if they send me a $4 off $20 or $5 off $25 coupon. Please excuse the lousy picture to the right. I included my American Express Gift Card in the picture and realized that I’d be showing everyone the account number if I didn’t crop it out.
Also, you will notice that the quantities are not as large as usual. I let my roommate sleep in since there were few newspapers to fetch. As a result, we only did each deal once.
