We have spent all day trying to get onto one site and finally our perseverance paid off and we got what we wanted!!  Did you venture to stores today or stay in?  For our normal shopping this week we made it out to Publix and blew our grocery budget but did a great trip!  I also hit CVS at Midnight Thanksgiving morning.  I managed to find the biggest CVS I have ever seen and it even had a self scanner for your card!!  They let me do my 6 transactions and were great.

Publix:
Total before sales and coupons: $241.70
Total Spent: $74.45
Total Saved: $167.25 or 69.2%

CVS:
Total before sales and coupons: $131.75
Total Spent: $1.16
Total Saved: $130.59 or 99.1%

I pretty much did the transactions I mapped out here, except that I left out one or two items and repeated other transactions since we have 2 CVS cards.

Weekly Total:
Before sales and Coupons: $373.45
Total Spent: $75.61
Total Saved: $297.84 or 79.7%
