Swedish Fish

I do love me some Swedish Fish. CVS has a deal this week, buy 1 bag, get the 2nd bag for $0.01 cent! On the whim, I bought 2 bags. Make sure you look for the bags with the 2oz free, which makes it 16oz. It cost $3.29 + $0.01 for 2 bags = $3.30. I am splitting the cost with a friend, 1 bag for me, 1 for her. I only have to pay $1.65 for a 16oz bag. What a deal! Yummy. :-)

Don't forget to use your CVS tag for using your own bag so you can rack up more CVS Extra Care Bucks.

CVS Hang Tag for Renpure Organics

I noticed a hang tag while browsing CVS. It's in the Hair Care aisle. It's for the Renpure Organics line which sounded enticing to me since I want to start using more organic products. You have to mail in your original receipt & they will reimburse you for up to $6.99. The cost at CVS is $6.99 so you'll only have to pay for tax! If you are already at CVS, you may see if it's available at your store. I'm not sure if it would be in all stores, so don't make a trip out just for this.
