CVS trip 10/9 saved 86%

$6.57

Had fun doing my CVS trip today, the cashier was new and was learning how rolling EB's works.  She was amazed at how much you can save.  I could have saved a few dollars more if I would have done 4 transactions but I didnt want to overwhelm her and other customers were starting to show up.  I was also surprised to learn that the newspaper I usually get went up a quarter in orice but it is still cheaper than other local papers.   I started this trip off with $7 EB's and $6.83 on a gift card. Here is what I got and how I did it:
