CVS - Free Softsoap, Colgate

Hey, don't forget to check out my articles at the Atlanta Budget Grocery Examiner page at Examiner.com! Thanks!

Today was an easy one - my store had tons of the freebies in stock on an endcap (though oddly the endcaps were marked full price).

1 Softsoap - $4.99
1 Colgate - $3.99
-$1/Softsoap, $1/Colgate, $6.48 in ECBs. Got back $4.49 for the Softsoap and didn't notice until I got home, even though I'd read about it online. BOO. And $3.99 for Colgate. I'll have to call CVS on Monday. Paid 68 cents OOP (18 cents tax).

ETA: I called CVS on Tuesday and was told that a $1 ECB will be printing for me sometime after Wednesday afternoon. Yay! And then I read that the $4.49 ECB will scan for $4.99...interesting.

Second transaction:
1 Colgate - $3.99
1 travel pack baby wipes - 99 cents
Used $1/Colgate (handed first), $3.99. Paid 6 cents tax, got back $3.99.
