One of the best ways to save on your grocery bill is by stocking your pantry whenever there are great deals. CVS has some pantry staples you won't want to miss this week. The sale prices run until July 20, so scoop them up before they're gone.
Saving on everyday essentials that can be stored to last a while is a small spending habit that can stack up quickly and help boost savings.
CVS frequently runs sales on items that are likely always to be useful to have tucked in a pantry or cupboard, and this week, there are several deals for these always-needed items for under $8.

Price: $5 for 2 bags
Haribo gummy treats are a favorite brand for sweet go-to snacks, and this week's savings deals have them for $2.50 a bag, as long as you buy them in pairs.
The best part about munching on some gummy bears is remembering that somebody once walked into a TV studio and pitched an entire show around the concept of anthropomorphic gummy bears best defined by their bounciness, and it went on to become a beloved animated classic children's show.
