RMN: Tell us a bit about yourself.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Hi! I\u2019m Chelsie \u2014 I\u2019m a content creator, a mom of three, and I live in Oklahoma. I love sharing everyday moments, life hacks, and realistic mom life with my community online. Whether it\u2019s family fun, home organization, or shopping finds, I\u2019m always looking for ways to make life a little easier \u2014 and a little more fun!<\/p>\n

RMN: Why do you love shopping at CVS?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

CVS makes it so easy to grab everything I need in one stop, especially as a busy mom. I love that I can pick up household essentials, snacks, personal care, and even pharmacy items all in one trip \u2014 plus, the ExtraCare rewards program makes saving money effortless.<\/p>\n

RMN: Why do you think people should be aware of the CVS Extra Big Deals event \u2014 especially for summer?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Extra Big Deals are such a great way to stock up on things you\u2019re already buying \u2014 especially with spring bringing sports, school events, and all the spring cleaning! It\u2019s the perfect time to refresh your home, pantry, and personal care routines without breaking the bank.<\/p>\n

RMN: What items are you most excited about finding on sale when shopping at CVS?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

I was definitely excited about the General Mills cereal bars for quick breakfasts, the Colgate Optic White toothpaste for those back-to-school smiles, and of course snacks like Doritos and Cheez-Its for lunchboxes and after-school cravings. I also grabbed Gain laundry detergent \u2014 because with three kids, the laundry never stops!<\/p>\n

RMN: Any other tips for finding the best deals when shopping?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Make sure to sign up for the ExtraCare program \u2014 it\u2019s free and makes a huge difference in savings.
