CVS Extreme Couponing Week of 1/26

So today I got amazing deals at CVS. A lot of my deals were contingent on being an existing CVS extreme couponer so I had specific CVS coupons tailored to my general purchases, but I wanted to share how I did it, if anyone wanted to try to get similar deals.

As a heads up you will need at least 2 Red Plum (RP) inserts from today's (1/26) paper. I ended up with an average savings of 75% off but my big glory moment was getting 193 diapers for $9.15 out-of-pocket (OOP) which works out to less than $.05/diaper... whoop, whoop!!! This was all dependent on earning as many ExtraCare Bucks (ECBs) in my first 2 transactions as possible. Fortunately I was needing to fill some gaps in our shampoo and shower gel stockpiles anyways so I didn't buy anything I wouldn't use/need. 
And if you are wondering, the Estroven was a $2 moneymaker for me and will be used by my mom. Never be afraid to buy things that make you money that you can give to other people who probably need them anyways.
Here's how I did it and all "spend" amounts are based on my actual OOP costs with the 8.25% sales tax owed in TX.
