A day of CVSing 8/02

I did way more transactions at CVS than normal(for me), but I kept my out of pocket low. I need to keep the cost as low as possible since I have to use my money now, instead of a free cvs gift card. I also learned AFTER I thought I was finished that the soft soap deal was limit 5- not 1 as was advertised! So I stopped back at the 2nd cvs after droppin my mom off.
