CVS ECB Deals - Sales for Week 3/16/08-3/22/08

[chrissyd1]

Last night I saw my sister-in-law had a CVS prescription bottle.
I asked if she used her card.
She said - yes, but I am not good like you, I always throw those extra things (bucks) away.

I think I started to feel a little sick.

I felt the same way when a co-worker told me that!

I'm back from my CVS trip. They were out of the Pot of Golds but were substituting Russel Stover boxes instead. I got 2. It kind of messed up my deal because I went to the register thinking the chocolates would cost $4.99 each and I would get back 4.99. But she just rang them up free! Luckily I had denominations of ECB that I was able to still pay little OOP.

All I purchased was the 2 boxes of chocolates, 1 Maybelline lip color that was Free after ECB and a CVS toothbrush that I had a free CRT for. So I spend $7 ECB and got back $8.99. I used a $1 coupon on Maybelline face product and it scanned fine. I wasn't sure if the lipstick was considered a "face" product or if they have a "lip" category.

Sadly I am trying out one of my Life Fitness patches today! I have a sore back and I was glad I had those patches in stock! They seemed to work well enough to let me shop without too much pain.

I'm just getting back into CVSing. I need to make a few giftbags for Post Prom door prizes. I'm on a limited budget but here's what I've got so far:

Trip #1
4 BIC Soleil Razors @$5.99
2 Oral-B toothbrushes @$4.99

coupons used:
4 $2-off Soleil Razor
1 $2-off 2 Oral-B toothbrushes
1 $4 off $20 CVS coupon (registered my email at cvs.com/email)

Total OOP = $20.66

ECBs
$12 for the razors
$9.98 for the toothbrushes

Trip #2
4 Dove Shampoos @$4.99
4 Dove Conditioners free (they're BOGOs this week)

coupons used:
4 $3 off the purchase of 2 Dove Hair Products
1 $3 off $15 CVS coupon

OOP: $5.26 (decided to pay cash instead of using ECBs)

ECBs
$5 for purchasing $15 of Dove products

So now I've got almost $27 ECBs and the beginnings of 4 giftbags. I'm hoping to get the lipglosses later this week using the BOGO coupon, the toothpaste in the monthly deal (if I can find it anywhere), some bodywash and sprays. A local nail salon has given me 5 GCs for free manicures to add to the bags. That should make for a pretty nice door prize.

Prom is 10 weeks away. Wish me luck!

Can one of the CVS Professionals here help me make a deal w/my BOGO Oral B toothbrush coupons? I just found 2 that I thought I lost last week. I also have 2 $2.00 off coupons for Oral B toothbrushes, but I think they aren't for the types listed in in the flyer this week.

TIA

Also, anyone find any Coppertone coupons? We need some sunscreen for this summer........thanks

I think I have that same $2 off 2 Oral B toothbrushes.....just making sure those coupons worked w/the $4.99 ECB advertised. Also, I still have a BOGO toothbrush coupon, would that work w/these for $4.99?? TIA

I had a good trip this morning. I only had $6 in ECBs, b/c I actually had to spend some last week on things I needed that didn't give me as many ECBs in return (oh, the shame!)

1st trip:
2 pot of Gold @ 4.99 each
1 Intuition refills 8.99 (love these for vacations)
1 Dove body cream 6.99
1 Dove shampoo 4.99
1 Dove conditioner Free (B1G1)
1 Maybelline Superstay Lip Gloss 8.99
1 Lg 12 ct plastic egg .99
2 Bags Jelly Beans @ .99 each
2 Russell Stover Bags of Chocolates @ 3.29 each
1 24.7 Daily Scrub 15.99

Coupons

3/15 beauty purchase emailed to me
-1.50 Dove body cream
- 3.00 (2) Dove shampoo/conditioner
-2.00 Maybelline Lip color
-3.29 Russell Stover B1G1
-10.00 any 24.7 purchase (received this weeks ago on the bottom of a receipt)
-6.00 ECB


36.25 OOP and received 37.94 in ECBs. The cashier looked shocked at all the coupons that generated.

I decided to go to another store on the way home, b/c I needed a quick gift and I also wanted to check for some razors that were out of stock at the first store.

2nd trip:
Bic Soleil Razor 5.99
Bic Soleil refills 5.99
Wicker Basket gift set $25 value for $12.99

Coupons:
-4.00 soleil
-20.95 in ECBs from above trip

Paid .36 OOP and received $6 in ECBs.

I am definitely addicted! Thanks again to everyone - you are all very inspiring!

Dude, I'm addicted to CVS. DH went into the garage and screamed, "Is there any reason we need 20 tubes of toothpaste, 8 razors and about 10 toothbrushes?" My response, "CVS loves me!" Now in all seriousness I give most of it to charity but it's the hunt of free CVS stuff that I love

I'm glad your DH hasn't been to my house!

It's seriously ridiculous how much chocolate I have sitting in my dining room right now.....

I have chocolate hidden all over the kitchen and office. Managed to snag 6 of the Pot of Gold chocolate boxes today. DH broke into one and I hid the other 5 to save for end of the year teacher gifts.

We have cadbury eggs, cadbury creme eggs, Hershey kisses, Hershey miniatures and tons of non-chocolate (twizzlers, nerds, Juicy pop drops and 7 bags of jelly beans!).

I have all of that and about 20 big bags of M&Ms, Dove minis, Tons of the Large Bars of Cadbury, Hershey's Cacao, Mr. Goodbar, etc. I also have some Lindt truffles I picked up somewhere (though I think I got those at Walmart after Christmas). A Zillion Eclipse mints tins, a bunch of bundles of lollipops, 12 bags of Russell Stover's Private Reserve, some chocolate rabbits, about 30 containers of Ferrero Rocher (those were free at SuperFresh when they did triple coupons around Christmas). Thta's all I can see from where I am sitting, but I know there is more!

Kimya

ETA: I can also see about 20 cans of Spaghetti-O's from here. That was what I'd eaten in the morning of the day I threw up all over my bathroom and all over the ER bathroom when I went to the ER a couple of weeks ago. Needless to say I won't be eating Spaghetti-O's ever again. Anyone want to come take all these cans off my hands?

I will gladly take the Spaghetti-O's off your hands. My kids love them. Also will be happy to take the truffles (DD14 loves these!) and the M&Ms (for DH and DD9). I'm allergic to chocolate but I love to eat the insides out of the Cadbury creme eggs!

I can trade you about 50 Johnson's Buddies bars. I have cleaned out both CVS stores here and one of the Wal-marts and still have a few more coupons.

LOL. I have about as many Johnson's Buddies bars!

The one thing out of all the chocolate that I WILL eat are my Lindt truffles. They are mint and to die for.

The Green M&Ms I'm using for my sister's bridal shower since one of her colors is green. I wish I had thought to get ALL green M&Ms when I got them, but I had gotten regular bags of them before I got the idea to use them for the bridal shower.

My sister and her fiance just got back from Japan last night. She brought me some really cool Japanese candy. We can't tell what they are (haven't opened them yet), but they are some sort of chocolate and either strawberry or cherry concotion and look yum. They also brought me some REAL Cadbury chocolate, not the kind made here by Hershey's!

When we have our MD CVS meet, we should have a candy exchange!

This AM while I was putting away all my CVS goodies, and explaning to Hubby about how they were all free, he said " to bad you can't get me a chain saw for free at CVS " , I told him I would keep my eye out for one

The M&Ms went fast here and DH asks all the time when I am going to buy more. I tell him not until they earn ECBs and I have a coupon!

The Japanese candy sounds good. One of my friends is from Hong Kong and she used to always have a candy called Pocky that was really good.

You can get Pocky in Japan at Epcot!! They have regular, chocolate and strawberry. One year they had Pumpkin at Halloween and that was YUM!

There are some international stores in this area. They usually have Pocky in the Japanese section.

My lucky sister also went to Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySeas and I'm so jealous.

I have bought it at Japan. LOVE the stuff. I think I saw it in Publix last time I was in there too.

The pumpkin flavor sounds good. Wonder if there is anywhere up here to buy Pocky. Too bad CVS doesn't carry the stuff.

LJ - LanaJae for short.

I am so dense!

I don't know who won or how much I owe...

So, I decide to head over to my closest store before work. I walk in the door and cashier says, "hey we thought you'd be here when we opened today, some guy just took the last of the chocolate boxes and the kids mouth wash and there's only one jelly bean left, but it's spice and they're gross."

So, I go get a Maybelline lip thingy (lots of them and many nice colors) and I check out the clearance and make the usual rounds of looking for LypSyl and Vitamin C. Got 2 packages of plastic eggs (why oh why?) and the spice jelly beans and managed to find some other junk to get to $15 - actually one thing was good, it was Juice? brand (face serum) for $2.49, regular $19.99, and (drum roll) a Playskool tote.

I check out and give my coupon and the cashier says, "oh come on," you only have one coupon? Are you sick?" (confirms my internal shame).

I go to work and spend the afternoon handing out almond clusters at Target, which somehow made me decide that I had to have the boxes of chocolates at any cost, so after work, I drove to another CVS. They had about 50 boxes! Of course I got another Playskool tote and another jelly bean, and then (this is the best part), I found some new CVS magazine! It's 99 cents and inside was a coupon book and there was a $2 CVS coupon for Skin Effects, and I remembered that there was a $19.99 Skin Effects in the clearance for $3.49 at my closest store SO I WENT BACK THERE. I decided to use my husband's card and get another Maybelline and then 2 more packs of pastic eggs, and... another Playskool tote. Then I walk by the chocolate, and there are several boxes of it (huh?). Turns out it was the one with nuts (green writing) and the cashiers thought that didn't count so have been telling people it's gone since this morning.

So, instead of not going at all, I went and went and went.

Off to read about everyone else's day, hope they were all good trips!

Way to go JanaJae! I actually predicted you'd hit stores on BOTH days of the 2-day sale, but didn't imagine you'd hit 3 stores today (or was it 4, I lost count?).

Can't find those playschool totes in my part of CT, but I am not complaining because today and last week were still all good.
