Cvs weekly 2/7-2/13

[puffkin]

Aren't we due for another email $5/xx coupon? Seems like they're sent every other week or so. Sure could use one!!

I hope so too...I can definitely use it on Sunday!

I NEED to get to Rite Aid to do a few more transactions this week to finish the P&G deal. I also need to do two more deals at CVS. Freaking out though because the snow we have gotten here is unreal! 2 Nor'Easters in 4 days is ridiculous. We have about 32 inches in our yard right now with higher drifts at places. Our driveways and sidewalks look like cattle chutes We are down to 1 car since the Corolla can't make it through this stuff (main roads are clear, but roads in our development have barely been touched). Hopefully DH will let me stop on the way home tonight if it doesn't get too icy by then!

Well of course! Just got back from school & errands, including CVS, to find a $5/30 in my email! But its only through Saturday this time, not Sunday! ?

However, after hearing many still use the outdated CA coupon, I tried it and it worked, yay!

How do you become a member of the advisory panel?

I got a $4/$20, but it also expires Saturday. I'm thinking about doing the crackers and filling in with milk or something like that. I did two big orders earlier this week and could have really used the coupon then.

I finally found the cherry Nivea in stock, but I think it's too red. I'm going to return two of the three I bought and get Shimmers or the one with sunscreen.

If anyone gets the free Dove bar coupon, it takes $2 off and the candy bar is only 50 cents!

There's a good deal on the Cover Girl this week if you use the BOFOF coupon -- two for half the regular price of one. I like the one with Olay in in that Ellen advertises.

I think taxes must be done differently in some states. I have to pay on the amount before ECBs, so I never get the really tiny totals.

I used the expired $5/20 coupon today and it beeped but the cashier pushed it through. I'm going to be so sad when they eventually stop letting us use it.

flakypuff - ...and walked out of cvs with 24 items (worth over $150) for a mere $22.54 out of my pocket! that beats the dollar store (a favorite of mine too!).

I know that most of you cvs veterans walk out spending nothing and i didnt walk away with any ebc's to use next time ...but i was pretty happy with my savings...

thank you all your cvs-ers!

Did you do multiple transactions and use the ecb of one transaction on the next? I see you bought two nivea lip things - if you buy two more, with the buy one get one coupon, you will get 5 ecb for next time! Your card will keep a running tab of how much you bought towards a deal so you don't have to buy all the stuff in one big transaction. It really helps to break things up especially when you have several $X/$XX coupons.

I'd like to try the Nivea with the lip care - which are the lip things that are producing the ecb? Is it the ones on the card, or the ones that aren't on a cardboard? I found some of the Bonus Days Nature's Bounty vitamins at one of my stores, and I've still got $5 NB coupons, so I want to use my overage wisely. It's a great store very well-stocked, next to a university, so the only thing they really sell is beer, and, perhaps more beer. I gave myself a Valentine's Day gift because they were clearancing Neutrogena 14-day repair kits for $7.

I bought the Nivea lip things that were on the cards and those worked.

The registers are programed now to reduce the taxable total after $/$$ and extra bucks used that were earned on CVS-brand items.

Extra bucks that are reimbursable by a manufacturer now have to be treated like mfg. coupons.

Both kinds had signs on them at the store I like to go to.
