CVS Shopping Trips - Month of March

I have had a hard time keeping up with blogging this month, hopefully I will be more motivated in April.  I did, however, manage to keep track of my CVS shopping trips.  Here it is...

I went on three shopping trips to CVS this month.  All items purchased are shown in one picture but each week's transaction is shown below.  I spent a total of $6.07 for $36.14 worth of stuff.  I would have spent less out of pocket, but I forgot my extra bucks on one of the days and didn't really feel like going home to get them.

So far, since I've started this experiment, I have spent $23.19 for $82.25 worth of merchandise.  About $5 of what I spent is tax.  Go here to see my CVS journey from the beginning.
