My CVS Scenarios for the Week of 6/6/10!

**If you're new to the CVS game this post won't make much sense to you. Go here first to read my Beginner's Guide to CVS and learn everything you need to know. Then read the rest of this post for tips on how to make the game work for you, too!


Ok, I already have my CVS scenarios ready for next week, super early! I couldn't help myself, there were so many possibilities, I wanted to get them down on paper and play with them and see how low I could get my total and how much stuff I could score for free!

I am SOOO excited about this coming week! So much great stuff, and rolling some ECBs, and also growing them!

I have 4 transactions planned (you'll need to pick up one newspaper on 6/6 before doing these deals!):

    How do you get so many 4/20 coupons?? What if you don't have those? I maybe get one every couple of weeks emailed to me but not multiples...?
