Success at CVS!

I went to CVS yesterday and finally - finally! - had my deals work out as planned. I did 2 transactions:

First:
Soft Soap body wash 4.99
used $1 coupon - received 4.99 in ECBs
Dove Advanced Therapy shampoo 4.99
used $1.50 coupon
Dove Advanced Therapy conditioner 4.99
on sale at bogo - saved 4.99
used $1 coupon
2 Purex 50 oz laundry detergent @ 6.99 each
used bogo coupon to get both free!
2 Lindt truffle eggs, on clearance @ 50-cents each

Total spent 8.57, including tax

Second:
Soft Soap body wash 4.99
used $1 coupon
Dove Advanced Therapy conditioner 4.99
used $1 coupon
Dove Advanced Therapy shampoo 4.99
on sale at bogo - saved 4.99
used $1.50 coupon
Lindt truffle egg, on clearance at 50 cents

Total spent 1.78, including tax, using 4.99 ECBs from above and 50-cent ECBs on above receipt

RESULT: This gave me an out of pocket total of $10.35 with a savings of $38.55! Wow! I was so happy. Usually they are out of what I want even if I get there on Monday, so I was really pleased to grab these deals later in the week. If I can find more coupons for the Dove hair care, I may go back yet, and I may also try the Purex deal again. This has restored my enthusiasm for the drugstore game!
