CVS Thanksgiving & Black Friday Ad Couponing Trip 11.24.11
- by Christine
I am still so excited about my haul from CVS on Thanksgiving! I went to my favorite store at 7:20am to wait for them to open!! When the doors opened at 8am, there were about 5 of us hardcore shopaholics ready to go!
I could have broken this into more transactions to pay less out of pocket, but there were lots of people getting in line as I checked out, and I didn’t want to hold anyone up!
