    Great Job at CVS! I love robbing them silly! I think a whole bunch of us will have the whitest teeth ever with all the toothpaste we have stocked up! ha ha ha!

    @ CVS Junkie
    Ha ha…since I am obsessed with my teeth anyway. :-)
    I don’t think we are robbing them blind. If they were losing money they would stop accepting coupons.

    They are probably not making as huge a profit as they would before the coupon…but they are still making a profit anyway.
