I got $5 off $30 hmmmm

No q for me did get an email asking me to participate in an online survey Sunday morning comparing their ad with Wags, will receive 10 ECB's right afer the 10 min survey. Going to be a great week for me.:)

I thought so but my store said no. I will try at a different store.

You can get a pack of 5 at Sams for $35.

Be careful, at CVS you can't do any of the Sunday-Monday-Tuesday only sales on Saturday night and get the ECBs. So for example, the cadbury egg one this week won't work until Sunday

you missed the deal in publix! they are 1.99 but you were able to stack them with the $2.00 off 2 store coupon. I got like 15 boxes for free!! :) PLUS if you purchased I THINK 35 dol in KC products they sent you a gift card of $10

Good luck

I got that coupon too. I got the Dorritos/Free Pepsi Max coupon (printed 2) so I will add those to my order to bring up the total.

same here…it is just spinning away!

My CVS allows overage. I think it may be up to the individual store manager. I go to 3 different stores in my area & all allow overage.

My CVS allows overcharges, last week my total was -2.74 so I got 2 NYC cosmetic items and gum for free. Didn't even need a coupon, love my CVS.

My CVS doesn't give overage either. Example, last week I bought the Gain dish soap at Rite-Aid (less than a dollar) and received full value for the $1 coupon. Bought another at CVS (also less than a dollar) and received only the amount of the dish soap. Like you, not complaining, but it does help decide where the better deals may be found!

My CVS has always made us pay our tax…

I have always had to pay tax and I think that's fair. I know people say they give their ecb's first so that the tax would be covered but I have never done that.

it depends on the cashier.

You can stack a CVS coupon with a manufacturer coupon. You can also use a $5/$20 CVS coupon with additional coupons during your transaction.

In addition you can use a BOGO coupon when the items are BOGO to get both for free.

Yeah, I think that was a typo. I was thinking the same thing. You can't get 2 on the same day unless she knows something we don't know.

Am I reading this right? The cashier tore off your ECBs and kept them? I'm just surprised no one else has commented on this. I would definitely report this to the manager. Limit or not, the cashier took your coupons. He could have stolen them. I would definitely talk to the manager (or corporate office) and see if this is their policy at that store.

This is a good price… I also try to stay under $5.00 and usually it is very doable.

I would also say that $5 is what I usually pay for a Jumbo pack. Anything $4.50 or below is stock-as-much-as-you can deal for me.

What is EO?

neat! Thanks:) do you remember if the sign stated any limits?

UGH!! I couldn't remember if I read this for CVS or for RA and I couldn't find this at my CVS and bought it at the RA. With it not being advertised, I couldn't get any deal. Well, I will just take it back, thanks, for this info.

Are both of these manufacter coupons?? or is one a CVS coupon ?? At my CVS you can only use one man. coupon per item.

you are correct…..cannot use 2 mf q's on one item. Still a great deal at 99cents by using one of the $3/1 mf q though! HTH!

if they were b1g1 she could, but she is not allowed too. I see she got away with it though.

sorry this was in response to someone, and i forgot to hit reply button. Its too the person who thought wags was less confusing.. haha

My biggest thing is that the EBC's last much longer. Makes it easier for casual users to not mess things up. Any time I go somewhere else it is a pain to remember I only have 2 weeks not 4.5 weeks.

Mine either. Maybe a regional thing? I do have $3/10 w/ $3 ecb for root beer, sunkist, and 7up. What a Bummer!!!!

In Lancaster, SC the Dr. Pepper didn’t print out a ECB. I didn’t realize it until I got home. Check the flyer and it was not listed as being on sale. I will double check next time! That was an oversight on my part!

My CVS just adjusts the coupon down to the correct price. I do notice that the store coupons or Red Kiosk coupons do give overage though.

Your cashier or store manager should have adjusted the sale price up or the coupon value down. That's their corporate policy, which my local managers only agreed to do after I raised a fuss with the regional manager! Now they've all been trained ;-)

Yes, you can, as long as the total of the ECB's is less than or equal to your subtotal. HTH!

Same thing happened to me. I guess on Sunday morning there's bound to be a bug or two. It pays to check your receipt before you leave. The manager was very nice about it and I did get the $1 ECB.

Wow… That is an impressive lineup. Never thought it through that much. Too bad I missed it. Had to work Sunday and wasn't prepared…

You used to just be able to show them your phone; however, this week when I went the cashier said they no longer could do that. I don't know if that is a corporate thing or not. I am in Birmingham.

I use online clipping services like Coupon masters.com to order coupons for things I know use. Then I hold onto the coupons until the item is also on sale at one of the stores. At first I had trouble staying organized, but then I used someone’s suggestion of setting up a notebook that I can carry shopping with me. It’s a 3-ring binder with the plastic sheets you use for baseball card collections. That makes it easy to group like coupons into organized sections.

Some people buy coupons online – eBay and other sites (do a Google search). I just get the ones from the Sunday papers (sometimes I get multiple copies if its a good week for coupons) and I also subscribe to All You Magazine. It's available by single copy at Walmart, too. A stash of coupons is absolutely necessary to do some serious coupling. Good luck.

Be patient and keep your eyes open! Look for blinkies and tearpads at grocery stores, coupons on products, newspapers, junk mail. Sign up for freebies and samples, their is almost always a coupon with them. Send companies an email, and sometimes they'll send you coupons. If you are patient and observant, soon you'll have ooodles of coupons!

I’ve been at this since October. I order 6-10 sets of inserts each week using wholecouponinserts.com. It usually takes about 3 days and I receive them in the mail. The usually have a few previous weeks’ inserts for sale as well as the current ones. Hope this will help you.

It also takes up to 48-72 hours for it to update on your receipts and on the website.

In the CVS ad I got today it says that your ECBs will print on your receipt two days following qualifying purchase(s). It also says that hair care is included! Wait two days and it should print off on your receipt hopefully!

It's now Tuesday and the credit did show up, as all of you below stated it would. Thanks again for the help.

And, thus, please allow me to correct my statement above –

Shampoo DOES COUNT as a qualifying “hair care” product for Beauty Club purposes.

Which is a good thing ;-)

most coupons have a watermark where if the cashier knew what to look for, they'd know it was a copy. Maybe they just need to be informed.

It's suppose to be once per visit per day I think. But I've gone to different CVS's in a day snagging clearanced baby items in the past & used my bag/tag & they've scanned it & it added up. I just wanted not to waste a plastic bag.

Don't be too hard on the cashiers. There have been a couple of employees at my CVS fired for coupon fraud. Some of them were not even aware that they were doing anything wrong with the way they were taking coupons. CVS is evidently getting tougher on coupons, but not teaching their employees the proper use. So PLEASE, if you have a complaint, take it up with the manager and not the cashiers who are just doing their jobs.

There is a lot of misconception on “one per purchase.” Technically, in coupon terms, “Purchase” refers to the number of items specified in the coupon. For example, if the coupon is $2 off 1 Pantene shampoo, then 1 piece of that Pantene shampoo is “one purchase.” Similarly if the coupon is $2 on 3 Pantene Shampoo; then for coupon purposes, these 3 pieces of Pantene shampoo are “one purchase.” Coupon state “one per purchase” almost universally just to assert that you can not use 2 (like Qs) of, let's say, $2 on 1 Pantene shampoo coupon on just 1 piece of Pantene bottle. Manufacturers have nothing to do with what other “purchases” you are making in your transaction-they are only for their own “purchases.” Many employees confuse everyday use of “purchase” with coupon “purchase term.”

On store B1G1 sale, for many, it is too good to be true that you can use manuf b1g1-manuf Qs can be used irrespective of store sales/discount (unless specifically stated on coupons-which is never the case)

I also believe that now more and more employees are getting educated about it. You just need to show confidence and educate them on the logic. If they refuse to learn, turn away from sale and follow thru proper channels. The cashier you encountered was probably insecure one not knowing that bluntly refusing valid transaction could also be a ground for dismissal.

I feel like there's always more coupons and sales for men! I can't remember the last time I paid cash for men's deodorant, bodywash, or razors, but I always seem to have to pay at least a few dollars for my products.

If you haven't already sign up for the newsletters for Right Guard, Nivea, Axe, etc. and they'll email you coupons and let you know when they're available. Also, sign up for Jenny's daily coupon email. She emails you all of the coupons that have come out that day. Print the ones you like that day and then wait for a sale.

Just hang in there Rusty, the guy deals come around I promise. My husband has about 10 different varieties of body wash to choose from in the “bathroom pantry”.

I haven't made the monthly donation to our local community ministry, so please keep any comments about hoarding body wash to yourselves ;-) I realize that it will take about 3 years to go through that much body wash.

right guard body wash is on sale at rite aid this week. Also if you aren't real picky about what you use for body wash or deodorant, like my husband, you'll have lots to choose from. Based upon my overstock of items, old spice and gillette have the most bogo deals. plus with the P&G coupons it can save you a ton. proglide razors are usually around $1 or free(like next week so make sure your P&G insert in your paper). keep following this blog and all the other comments/advice, and you'll be amazed at how quickly your bathroom stock pile will grow.

Scanned all the Max varieties and only one clearance priced at $2.58 at my store in GA. Prices must vary quite a bit?

Same thing here…i got the Max White Mini Bright Strips…. it rung up for $1.79 and got the $2 ECB!!! :)

I've got to return our CVS to get my Cadbury ECB. Didn't realize until I got home. Make sure to check your ECB before leaving the store.

You should know too that sometimes you can scan your card twice at the scanner and q's come out twice. (Not always, but sometimes). I have noticed that on my second scan some of the better q's come out! hth!

I got $1ECB for the egg, too!!! my cashier was great – mentioned it even before he rang me up! I'm loving CVS!

Gold Emblem Jelly Beans $0.99 – ECB $0.99= FREE
EOS Lip Balm $2.99 – ECB $2.99= FREE
Canbury Mini/single Egg $0.75 – ECB $0.75= FREE
Purex 3in1 Laundry Sheet $3.99 – MQ $3 = 0.99
Purex Detergent $1.99 – MQ $1 = 0.99
John Frieda Product $10 – MQ $2*2 – ECB $3= $1.5/each
or
Mars Single $2 – bogo MQ*2 – ECB$1= Free
Colgate Toothpaste $2.77 – MQ (depends..) – ECB$2 = not bad deal

total cost: $20.71 +tax…use $4 off $20 coupon plus MQ = $8.71+tax oop
and you get $7.73 ECB

You can get this booklet at a Kroger Pharmacy.

It must have been a fluke b/c I went to get some Fuze (yesterday they had a sign saying 4/ $1.25) when I went back today (with my coupons) the sign was turned around and it was 1.25 ech

ECBs are earned; so depending how you look at it, you actually lost some

you can still use them you would just lose it… I've done it :)

I tried 2 different stores, and neither of them had either of the Cadbury items in stock yet. But I did get the jelly beans.

Thanks for putting this on here… I bought the gain last week when it was 88 cents and I had a 1.00 off and they would only take the 88 cents off … I was bummed but I at least got it for free…. I also have a question… I see they have the herbal and aussie sale again with extra bucks back, limit one…. back like a month or so ago I did it then and got my ecb.. Can you still do it with it being another sale?
Thanks I need all the help I can get…

As far as I know, you will get multiple ECB's as long as they are on different items. For instance, if you buy 2 Cadbury eggs this week in one transaction, I think you'll only get the ECB for one of the eggs. But if you buy a Cadbury egg and the Gold Emblem Jelly Beans in one transaction, you will get both ECB's printed. Hope that helps :)

You'll get $9 as long as you fullfill the requirements for each item

Yes, you can!
