Weekend Wind-Down #68

Yesterday we walked up to the new CVS PHARMACY that opened up the street from us. They had been open for a couple of weeks, but yesterday they had a grand opening party. We drove by it earlier in the day, while we were running errands. We saw a moonbounce, a petting zoo, food stalls, and a DJ, packed into a crowded parking lot...it looked pretty exciting! But by the time we got back home and then walked to the CVS, the party was over and the employees were already cleaning up the mess. Oh well. A couple weeks before the grand opening, CVS had mailed out all these crazy coupons to the houses in the surrounding neighborhood in an effort to get people to come check them out. Needless to say, it worked...we were there to cash in before the coupon expired this weekend...



Turns out that there's a lot more to be had at the CVS than we expected...it's nice to know that if we ever need anything at the last minute - shipping supplies, toiletries, medicine, food - we can always pop up the street in no time, 24 HOURS A DAY. It's nice to have that sort of convenience really close by...





One of the coupons we took advantage of was this offer to get 25 photos printed for free. Missy just happened to have her camera on her and we printed some photos off her memory card...
