If you've scanned your CVS card lately, you're sure to receive the $2/2 Gold Emblem CVS nuts coupon and $1 off CVS drinking water 6pk or larger. The trial size packs of nuts for .99 work for the $2/2 coupons, which makes them FREE. (The chocolate covered peanuts are my weakness!) But today, I got the almonds ones for my husband.
