CVS is Coming to St Louis - Week 4

Week 1: CVS is Coming to Town
Week 2: Sign up for Your ExtraCare Card
Week 3: Attach Your ExtraCare Card to your e-mail.

Week 4: Earn 2% Back with Every Purchase

CVS tracks your spending with your ExtraCare Card. You will get 2% back on almost all your purchases. - Excludes alcohol, tobacco, lottery, gift cards, money orders, postage stamps, pre-paid cards, prescriptions, and special order Home Health Care items, including footwear.

On prescriptions, you earn $1 on every two prescriptions purchased.

The money you earn will be issued in Extra Care Bucks (ECB's). Every three months, the ECB's you have earned will print on the bottom of your store receipt. ExtraCare Bucks are coupons you can use on your next purchase at CVS.

I don't get too excited about these quarterly rewards because these rewards are earned on what you have spent out of pocket. My winter 2009 spending was $14.34 and I saved $318.13. I didn't qualify for the reward this quarter because the smallest quarterly ECB issued is for 50 cents. But I'll take 95% savings over 50 cents anytime.
