Shopping Trips 10/22 - CVS & Walgreen's

I wanted to do the CVS gift card deal once more this week, because I am collecting the prepaid cards to use on vacation to pay for activities & souvenirs. I didn't have coupons that matched REALLY well, so I wouldn't call this trip very brag worthy. But, I got my gift card and I got a few items we'll end up needing anyway. My goal is to RARELY shop (or only get freebies) in November to pay off any extra money we spend on vacation and get ready for the holidays, so I am trying to "stock up" now on things like toilet paper, paper towels, laundry soap etc...I also don't think the gift card deal is as great this week coming up :(

I didn't use any ECB for this transaction
