CVS, 2nd Transaction

This was done on a different card than the skippy:

Puppy Chow $4.99 used $2 q

CVS


I had $9.99 in Extra Bucks that actually expired yesterday, but the cashier was kind enough to let me use them anyway. This will probably be donated. I would have prefered to get some Ragu, but they were out. This worked out almost tax only, though:

OOP: $0.31
Saved $9.99

Kroger - $5/$45

I got a few $/$$ in tha mail because one our Krogers is "re-opening" after a remodel. It never really closed, but I guess they are done now. I actually got this at the other store, though, since I was on that side of town:

Walmart, 11/17- forgot picture

(walmart is the only place I have been able to find the cheese ones)
