CVS: Pampers Sensitive Diapers $.74 each

2011-08-09T17:04:00.000-04:00

Headed to CVS? You may want to check for clearance Pamper diapers. Some stores are clearancing out the Pampers Sensitive Diapers sz 1 from $10.99 to $2.74.
Use $2/1 Pampers coupon from 7/31 PG
$.74 each!!!

Also, this week get $3 ECB wyb 1 Pampers (limit 1), so you can potentially turn this into a money maker.

YMMV! This is not a national deal and depends on your location. In Grand Rapids, I went to two CVS stores, one with lots of size 1 for $2.74 and another store with no stock and no sign. It depends on your store.
