CVS Trip 4/1/12

There are a couple of great deals this week at CVS.  I was debating on whether to use my $7/1 Allegra coupons there or use them as a moneymaker at Walmart.  As I was preparing for my trip last night, I found a CVS store coupon (see photo) that sealed my decision to use them at CVS.  Here are the details:

4 Allegra Allergy Relief 5 Ct.  $6.99
Used one $5 wyb $25 Allergy Relief Products (CVS Coupon Center)
Used four $7/1 Allegra Product, exp. 4/8/12 (SS 4/1/12)


1 Complete Multipurpose Solution 12 Oz.  $8.99
Received one $8.99 Extra Care Bucks











REDEEMED: $3.00 Extra Care Bucks (Winter Spending)


OOP: $3.37


RECEIVED: $8.99 Extra Care Bucks


SAVED:  $37.96


The cashier had to adjust the $7.00 Allegra coupons to $6.99 to get the register to take them.  Also, I scanned my CVS Card at the Coupon Center and I received $3.00 ECB's for my Winter Spending, which is really just like another coupon, since it isn't figured into savings on any previous transactions.  So its like they paid me $5.62 ($3.37 that I paid minus $8.99 ECB that I received) to take the five items!

CVS Green Bag Tag... Earth-Friendly & It Pays!

Did you know that CVS has a program where you can purchase a CVS Green Bag Tag for $0.99?  Attach it to your favorite reuseable shopping bag, have the cashier scan it and every fourth time you will receive a $1.00 Extra Care Buck!  If you're anything like me, you shop your CVS a couple of times a week, so the ECB's add up quickly!  Here's a photo of my reusable shopping bag (with the Green Bag Tag on the right strap) that I keep in my car at all times for those last minute trips to CVS!

CVS Trip 3/27/12

Well, the theme this week at CVS for me was free, free, free!  I haven't bought much there this week, but what I have bought was either cheap or free.  Note that all of the candy purchases were part of their 3-day sale that ended today.

The CVS Store Coupon used on the 2-Liter Sprite was emailed to me today as a result of registering for the "I'm not a MoneyTrasher" Twitter Party about a week ago.  It was good for any candy or soda with no size specification, despite the fact that it pictured 20 Oz. bottles and candy bars!

Try One Free? How about Try Two Free! (+Moneymaker!)

One of my posts a couple of weeks ago discussed the "peelies" popping up on Arm & Hammer Crystal Burst Laundry Paks, which offer a full rebate of the purchase price up to $9.99.  Well, if you haven't taken advantage of this offer yet, you may want to reconsider, as the deal appears to have gotten sweeter!  CVS has this product (with peelies in my store!) on sale this week BOGO Free, which means you can get two packages for the price of one, or with the MIR from peelie, two packages for FREE!

I bought two tonight for my brother, since I already sent mine in (limit 1 per household), just to see how they print on the receipt and, as you can see from the photo, it shows one at the full price of $6.79, which means you'll get the rebate for the full price of the one you paid for AND use your $1.00/2 Arm & Hammer Laundry coupon to make it a moneymaker.  Here's the deal:


BUY:  Two A&H Crystal Burst 16 Ct. $6.79 BOGO FREE
USE:  One $1/2 Arm & Hammer Laundry Product, exp. 4/1/12 (SS 02/12/12 R)
PAY:  $5.79 + tax
FINAL PRICE:  FREE + $1.00 Moneymaker! (after MIR from peelie)
