Drugstore Black Friday Deals

I did my shopping this week for CVS and Rite Aid, on Thanksgiving. I know this is not how people usually do things, but my family wasn't getting together until Friday, which gave me the chance to shop before all the chaos on Friday. Unfortunately, my $5/$20 coupons at CVS would not work, so I had to shell out more ECB than planned, but it worked out fine in the end.

Based on the pictures below, how much do you think I spent?? Just wait for the totals at the end!

Rite Aid

No wipes on sale here. Really stunk, because I needed some, but thankfully, I got the ones at CVS. Also, the Dulcolax did not have an in ad coupon here. The cashier helped me pick razors that had a coupon on them, because I wasn't aware of this and the razors were in a bin at checkout. I didn't see it, but it was $1. We only found one box with a coupon.
