Cheeseburger Rolls: price break down

The recipe for this can be found here. Below is a price break down of the ingredients:

Cheeseburger Rolls: Makes 6

• 1 Batch of Ninety Minute dough= $1 (based on the ingredients this is my guesstimate)
• 1/4 lb. hamburger (I use 1/2 pound) I never pay more than 1.99/lb. for ground beef=$1 for 1/2 pound
• 1/2 tsp onion sald=pennies
• 1/2 tsp garlic salt=pennies
• salt and pepper to taste=pennies
  
• 1 c. shredded cheese (your choice) I never pay more than 1.78 for a 2 cup bag=.89

Total for this meal=2.89 or .48/roll. I always double this recipe and freeze what we don't eat. It makes for a great quick meal later on!

CVS:Free batteries

Most of you may know about the Duracell battery deal going on at CVS:

Get $15 in EB wyb (when you buy) $20 worth of Duracell, limit 3
Duracell - AA, AAA 8 pk, C, D 4 pk, 9V 2 pk =5.99
Duracell- AA, AAA 16 pk, C, D 6 pk, 9 V 4 pk=9.99

There are a few clarifying items I would like to share about our Topeka store.

Our store does have the $5/2 CVS coupon that you may have read about on other blogs. It was not put out until yesterday morning and they are hanging above the batteries. The batteries can be found on an end cap at the front of the store across from the photo counter. Take note that some batteries are marked "digital" and I am not sure they are apart of the deal.

Another thing you need to know is that there has been some difficulty in using ECB's to pay for these. If you plan to use ECBs that are greater than a $5 amount I suggest you pay in ECBs first and then use your $5/2 CVS coupon. I don't know why but after your $5/2 coupon is scanned the computer is having a hard time taking any ECB's that are over $5. Here is what your deal could possibly look like:

• Buy 1 large Duracell Battery pack at 9.99
• Buy 2 small packs at 5.99=11.98
• Total=21.97
  
• Use $5/2 CVS coupon (you may only use 1 in 1 transaction!)
• Use 3 .75/1 MF coupons=-2.25
• Total=14.72
• Pay in EB, and get back $15 in EB!= FREE BATTERIES!

Note: If you have EB's that are $5 or greater pay with your $14.72 in EB's first! Then use your MF coupons and finally the CVS $5/2.

If you are a new reader an this makes no sense I totally apologize! For those of you seasoned CVSers I hope this helps!
