If you buy the aerosol Right Guard the boxes have a $2 off coupon inside. Buy one then use for additional (you can get up to 5 deals.) Makes it $5.99 and you get 7 ECB’s back. Just make sure the ECB’s come through, I’ve bought the deodorant at several CVS’s and had to get a manager every time because they didn’t print.

I just purchased the Crest Pro and it was marked 4.99 on the shelf and with a little leg work I had the sells person correct the price for an additional .30 cents savings. There were several marked for 5.29 and two different ones marked for 4.99. Make sure to check your price.

Yep, same thing. With the duracel battery deal. Clerk told me that with the coupons and a $15 ECB, I had “too many coupons” and the manager agreed! I argued a bit, but it was futile. I thought that’s it., I broke the bank and “they” are on to me! LOL!

I went to another CVS and tried the exact same deal with the exact same coupons. Same thing happened and the clerk had to call the manager over. This time, the manager cleared the sale, put in the $15 ECB first and then the coupons and viola! it worked just fine.

I just had the same problem with the $4 thing. I gave them an ECB for $13.97 and was told it was ringing up for $4. The cashier had to get a manager who explained that the cashier needed to scan the “higher ECBs” first, before the coupons. This made no sense to me at all, but they voided the transaction and started over and it worked.

I think there’s a hidden limit on the Complete Saline Solution. I bought 1 and my receipt does not state that my limit is reached.

Has anyone ever run into the problem of not getting the entire ECB amount because “the items you are buying are on sale”? I gave the cashier two ECBs one of which was for $6.98 and she said the register would only give me $4 credit for it. The manager let her give me the difference in cash, but I’m sure he was just trying to be nice and did not want to have a problem on a Saturday morning. Am I missing something? I thought that was the whole point – to pay for sale items with ECBs and maximize your savings.
