How often do you get x/xx?

I seem to get x/xx in my emails on weeks that I don't need them because I already have some but for the sales next week I don't have one. I usually get mine on Thurs if I was going to get one. I was able to print one from the flu shot quiz but it expires on Sat...

So how often do you get them or does it vary by person? And I've read that the deals usually start Sat night for some or is that every CVS? I'd love to use my 5/25 but I don't want to get stuck paying a high OOP (only have 6 ecb) if my deals don't ring up correctly. Do the ECB print on Sat or do they have to be manually printed?


TIA!

My DH usually gets a x/xx coupon in his e-mail if others have also. I never get them.
Not everyone gets them though, it's random!

Every store is different whether they activate their sales early on Saturday and what times also varies. I have a store I go to that starts theirs first thing Sat. morning, another mid-morning and I know of one that doesn't. If you have a scanner at your store, check the price and if it rings up on sale then you know they've activated early, or if you don't have a scanner, just ask someone and they'll tell you. Usually if they've activated early, they will have put the signs up also. I always shop Saturdays and have always gotten my ECB's, except for 2 or 3 day sales, they will only print on those specific days.

I've only gotten a couple of them, I cant print anyway but I do get them on the bottom of my receipts all the time lately. I got FOUR 4/20 in the last two weeks-that almost never happens.

Never. That's why I'm thrilled when there are printable $/$$ coupons like the ReadyFill or the Flu quiz coupons.

The stores nearest to me don't have scanners. The one store about 30 min. away just got a printing scanner but the only coupons that have printed for me are the GE candy and nuts. I'm thinking that CVS is trying to tell me that I don't need incentives from them to shop in their store. (uh. really?? )

You know what is weird? My card that I have registered in my name NEVER gets any 4/20 coupons on the receipt, but the card that I got for my boyfriend (at the time, we are no longer together) I get 4/20 almost every transaction and it is not registered in any name.

i get a 3/15 everytime i go to CVS. It comes out based on your spending habits. The more you spend, the more likely you are to get it.

Actually I've spent more out of pocket recently than ever before and I have STOPPED receiving the 5/$25. I think it's because I was constantly using them and they would regenerate but I went through a CVS dry spell for a few weeks and they all expired. So now, I have none to get them going again. I'm just guessing here but that's what I seem to see as a trend.

I got them with every receipt when I first started seriously shopping at CVS which was last winter but now I never get any. It appears to me that they track who uses them and then they stop giving them out to the couponers.
