This CVS CoverGirl scenario was lifted in its entirety from Rachel.  And I know she will comment on it 30 seconds after it posts.  Mention her name and her head spins faster than Kim Kardashian’s does when she spots a photo op.  That reminds me:  How much did Kim get for exclusive pictures of the bridal night?  but i digress…

You see here two sets of exactly the same transaction for two separate CoverGirl rebates.  Remember that CVS is having a Buy 1 CG, get the second 50% off.  Bought two Olay Regenerists ($20.99 each),  two CoverGirl eyeshadows ($3.99; $1.99) and two liperfection pencils ($7.99; 3.99).  The liperfection pencil coupons scanned at $7.50 – which was funny because the cashier asked if I had purchased anything different because it all went through smoothly, with no beeps.  He said they had been having problems and this was the first time it went right through (…sorry Rachel).  Used the $10/2 Olay coupon, the $8/2 CoverGirl coupon and FREE CG liperfection pencil when you buy any Regenerist product.   Used the $5/25 from the Magic Coupon Machine and will get an additional $5 in Beauty Rewards Club purchases.  I used the first $20 gift card to pay for the second transaction.

Oh, and I got more of those FREE Illy coffee coupons from the Machine.  They didn’t have any in stock, so I’ll just hold on to them.  Since I’ll submit the receipts for the CoverGirl $10 gift card, I’d say I’m a very happy camper.
