CVS $5 Scenario - Week of 5/29/11

You can save a ton of money at CVS rolling ECBs.  Multiple transactions don't seem to be a problem with CVS cashiers.  But, if a line forms behind you, it is courteous to step aside after a couple of transactions and let the other shoppers check out.

  1. New to your blog and loving it. I had a great day at CVS courtesy of your information. Last week I wasn't prepared to do your scenario, but I did need some polish, so I got the $4 ECB and used it this week and added the Pantene shampoo to your first transaction and use 3 off coupon making my first purchase total of 1.06 plus got $2 ECB. Used the ECB and next transaction for a total of .52. Next transaction I used Mars ECB $1 paid 1.07. Received RC for Bic. Will use 3.99 ECB for that for free. And I still have $2 ECB from Oral B and $1 ECB bag tag, plus $3 ECB when I purchase Bic. Can't wait for next week! Thanks for all you do.
