Tip # 6: Drugstore Savings

A lot of drugstores out there have savings programs available. I follow the CVS Pharmacy weekly ads because there's a CVS less than 5 minutes from my house. But, places like Rite Aid and Walgreens have great in-store savings week to week.

I know that at Rite Aid and CVS you have to sign-up for a card, while at Walgreens you don't need one.

Drugstores such as these will offer reward amounts for certain items each week. You can use these reward dollars on your next purchases. Using these with coupons helps you save even more money!

At first it's difficult to get into the whole rewards program thing. You will have to spend some money in order to get those rewards. But, with those reward vouchers and coupons you'll eventually only have to pay small amounts of money out of your own pocket.

This past week at CVS Pharmacy I paid $14.15 out of pocket and saved $61.56.

That's the best I ever done at CVS!
