    Default CVS Anyone?

    Does anyone do weekly CVS ECB deals?

    Today I got:
    4- 3pk Ivory soap
    2- Yardley soap
    2-Wet & Wild mascara
    2_Wet & Wild eyeshadow
    1- Crest Pro Health rinse
    1-Oral-B Pulsar toothbrush
    After $5 ECB and coupons I paid $5.76 and got back $5.50 in ECB

    We have been living out of my stockpile cabinet for awhile, time to start restocking it!

    OK, here's mine:

    2) 1L Crest ProHealth Mouthwashes
    2) Oral B Pulsar Toothbrushes
    1 8ct Excedrin PM
    1 Colgate 360 Surround Toothbrush
    2) L'Oreal Eye Shadows

    After all my coupons, I paid $3.17, of which $2.39 was tax. I used $37.00 in coupons, and received $17.00 in ECB.

    I love shopping at CVS! I usually break my purchases down into 2 -3 transaction so that I pay next to nothing out of pocket. I love rolling over the ECBs.

    Thank goodness I had a patient cashier this week- after 2 transaction and loading 3 yo into the car, I realized the toothbrushes that should have been $2.79, get $2 ECBS ran up as $4.50 each, no ECBs. No $4.50 toothbrushes are allowed to cross our thresh hold, so back in I went, receipt and child in hand. She took a look, rolled her eyes and said 'the toothbrushes ALWAYS screw up'. We got that fixed and I paid .29 a piece between the correct price, my coupon, and ECBs back. MUCH BETTER. I think my local Sunday morning CVS employees are getting used to me and my obsessions with ECBs and coupons! There is a GREAT website 'I heart CVS' dot com, that previews upcoming sales so you can get your coupons ready and plan your shopping in advance...though lately it's only showing 1 week ahead instead of 2-3 like it used to.

    I still don't get the CVS thing. I think I just really need to pay attention as I just can't seem to figure it out. Same with Walgreens and the others.

    any simple beginner steps you can give me?

    I don't do the ECB's much, but I'm loving the $10 gas cards you can get every week until the middle of September! I just found out about them last week and already have two!

    What is an ECB? I typically find most of my coupons on RedFlagDeals.com.

    I'm like Frugal Is Fun--I don't seem to get the deals that others do.

    I love CVS!

    I walked in with a $3 off 15(I get multiple of these every week from the machine!) and 14 ECBS to begin with

    I bought:

    *4 Axe body washes using BOGO coupons and they had a bonus shampoo 2n1 travel size attached on each
    *1 Soleil Shimmer
    *1 Gillette Fusion Power Razor
    *2 Skinny Cow Single Candy Bars
    *18ct Kotex U Pantiliners (free coupon from the machine)

    I paid $3.87 and received 12 ECBS and it will be enough to put me over to my next $5 ECBS for the Beauty Club. Hope to print that out later this week.

    Interesting deals - what machine? I am heading there this afternoon - shall post what I get. Our CVS is slowly taking over a locally owned chain so we don't get all the mainland goodies - but certainly more than over.
    Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.

    Most CVS's have a coupon machine at the store. I scan my card in it everyday I am there. It gives out all kind of extra above and beyond coupons.

    You can get
    100% free items
    $3 off of $15
    and smaller coupons off certain products.
