Sunday Roundup: Target, CVS and Harris Teeter

I made one more Triple Coupon trip with the coupons that came in today’s paper. I hit up CVS for some deals that started today, and I had to run to Target for a prescription, so I picked up a couple of other things that were cheaper there than anywhere else. Tah-dah:

Triple Coupon Week, Day Three! (Or “Trip Three,” I guess, since I didn’t visit HT yesterday.)

DO YOU LIKE BACON? WE HAVE MUCH BACON.

Giant offered four “Super Doubler” coupons this week, where they double coupons with a value of $1. It’s not as great as Super Doubles at Harris Teeter, but it’s something.

I’m having surgery on my sinuses on Tuesday, and I wanted to stock up on soft foods I would be able to eat no matter what. [...]
