Thanks for the info, Maggie.
I just did a couple of the Revlon nailpolishes and the Tide detergent. I also lost quite a few ECB's on the detergent but I needed it so I guess I can live with that.

I had a pretty good trip on Sunday. I am going back today for Tide and will need to use some ECBs. I am frustrated that I bought my limit of Tums when I was able to get the printable coupon for $2.25 just yesterday. Oh well! I shouldn't be greedy!

Here is my scenario:
4 bottles of Sierra Mist $3.58
2 Tums QuickPack $9.38
2 Revlon Nailcolor $7.98


1 .75 Tums coupon
1 1.00 Tums coupon
1 2.00 Revlon coupon
1 1.00 Revlon coupon
1 BOGO Sierra Mist coupon (1.69)
1 $4/20 coupon
10.00 ECB

Total OOP: .61

ECBs earned: 15.38



Thank you to the regular posters who keep this information available to us!!

I lost a good bit of ECBs this week too but I had several about to expire.

I did the Lipton deal and the Tide. My store was out of the mustard but I got a rain check. I also got 2 nail polishes and 5 bottles of BBQ sauce.

 

[mommytobug]

Ok, I wanted you all to see what I got and tell me if you think I am doing good at this.

today, I had 10.00 in ECBs I could use
I purchased
2 Lipton Tea Bags
1 Hellmans mayo
2 skippy pb
1 palm liquid
1 excedrin migraine
2 post cereals (BOGO)
Rolo (not needed but on sale and a treat)
1 BC fudge brownie mix

I had 10.00 in ECBs
I had the 2.00 coupon for Excedrin.



I paid 12.37 OOP. I saved 31.97.I earned 3.00 ECB, 1.00 ECB, $4 off $20, save $3 on any 2 body washes, free $25 gift card with new prescription.

If I do the prescription thing, how do I get the gift card? Will it be printed on the receipt or like a real gift card?

THANKS!!!!!

Has anyone done the gift card offer? I am thinking you spend $50 and get $75, I can use the AmEx myself for future purchases. I have$16 in ECBs if they let you use them and a $4/$20 which I doubt I can use but I am thinking if I spend $30 I get $75. Am I missing something? Seems better than getting ECBs as I can use the AmEx anywhere I want.

TIA

I know it seems like a good deal, but I'm pretty sure you can't use ECBs for any gift card purchases. I know one time I tried to use my CVS gift cards I had gotten from a prescription to buy and itunes gift card and they wouldn't let me.

Okay went to CVS this eve to get prescription refilled (1 of our pharmacists will let you use a coupon for a GC if you do not transfer it ) got my med for free (w/ promo from drug manufacturer, they paid my copay) and got a $25 GC. Then I bought:

3 80 oz bottles of Cheer (on clearance for $1.75 ea)
1 box of the oxy zit pads (for DD15 ) makes my skin ache just holding the bottle for $5.79
1 pkg of Ben Gay heat therapy pads (? or whatever they're called) 25% bonus box too $6.99
2 reg sized kit kat caramel candy bars .20 ea on clearance

total before tx 18.03
- $5 off $15 coupon
- $3 off $10 CRT
- $1 oxy zit manu coupon
- $1 Ben Gay coupon on box
- $1 cheer coupon X 3 on the bottles (only good at CVS)
- $2 ECB
- $3 ECB
OOP incl tx was .43
and I got back $1 ECB on the oxy zit pads and $2 cash for what was an 'old' ECB sign for the bengay patches.
So basically I'm out $2 in ECBS, but all in all, I thought I did pretty well. Esp with the $25 GC.

Tomorrow I'm picking up a new asthma inhaler (current one is about to expire on the actual inhaler) and I found a $30 GC competitor coupon in our local grocery store ad. I think right now I've got at least $250 in GCs to CVS. Too bad WDW doesn't take CVS GCs

I've gotten at least $250 in GCs from prescriptions. Just this week DS was put on an antibiotic and one day later he broke out in a rash. Now we have another antibiotic and a cream for the rash= $75 in GCs. While I hate that he is sick (although he isn't in pain or miserable) I make the most of it with the GCs. I'm waiting until 6/1 to start using these. This week is not really good CVS week for me.
