vegas trip

superman, supergirl, and i made way to las vegas last week. our friends recently bought their first home there! congrats to them!!!

superman was also there for work, but we managed to squeeze some good fun down time in.

i also got to check out CVS in nevada- which has the same ads as we do here in so. cal, same ad! and took a spin in target as well, but all's very similar to targets' here in so cal. we didn't do the tourist thing, stayed away from the strip, though we did stay at RIO. we've prob been in vegas a gazillion times in the last decade. nothing to be proud of!

i'm still waiting excitedly for my first issue of ALL YOU Magazine to arrive!

i do semi <3 cvs

but why oh why are the deals in California so different from that of other states? been reading some blogs posting great deals at CVS, such as free after ECB. but when i went into our local store here- NO SUCH DEAL. our ads are absolutely different too. it's interesting because i can't seem to find any blogs about the CVS ads in our area.

most of the LONGS are fully converted to CVS, since ECB are available. so that may or may not be the reason for different advertised deals.

this week for example, i see numerous reports of free blink eye drops, pay $7.99 get $7.99 ECB. blink costs $9.99 - $14.99 here, regular retail. and there is no EBC special at all! boo hoo~
