CVS shopping tips you'd like to share?: It never hurts to ask...most CVS' around here have taken a coupon for a specific item (ie. Gillette Custom Plus 3) for another item (same brand/price) if they don't have the product.

Last but not least be prepared at check out Ty

How often do you shop at CVS?: Depends on the week but I try to stop at least 3-4 times a week to scan
What are your favorite CVS deals?: HBAs that we go through quickly. To me, finding amazing deals/free/MMs on the things I used to pay a lot for is wonderful!
CVS shopping tips you'd like to share?: Have your coupons gathered before you go to the store. If you are searching for them at the check out or while standing in the middle of the store, you are bound to forget or lose something since there are so many wonderful CRTs and $/$$s ti stack with MQs. It also makes it easier to change scenarios on the fly if you can easily see exactly what qs you are using.

What are your favorite CVS deals?: Beauty deals because they are usually something I won't buy otherwise

CVS shopping tips you'd like to share?: As others have said, get a raincheck even if your q is about to expire, because the q will come out again sometime and the raincheck will still be valid since it never expires! I especially love the free after ECB rainchecks because usually a coupon comes out and you can pair it and turn it into a MM!

How often do you shop at CVS?: It really depends on the deals. Regardless, I shop there at least once a week. If there are a lot of deals or after reading the threads that multiple crts are printing, I go more often. It also depends on the manf cpns I have.

What are your favorite CVS deals?: Who doesn't like a MM deal :-) My favorite deals are those tied in with earning more ECBS, Beauty Club rewards. Anything I can get free by paying with cpns and ECBS and thus, earning more ECBS.

CVS shopping tips you'd like to share?: Always review the weekly ad, read the threads pertaining to the deals you want to do- you may find add'l info that will help you save even more $$. Be open to try new products that give ECBS - you may fall in love with them (ie Physicians Formula skin care). This is the store's and manf way to promote these products. Upon entering the store, always, always scan your CVS card first. I can't tell you how many times I've been surprised with a crt that prints out (please no more snickers, for now) that I could use that day (ie last weeks $1/1 TB and $1/1 mouth rinse crts) Those 4 crts saved me $4 and helped me to earn $14 in ECBs! Ad, the $4/12 cos cpn got me almost free mascara! Get to know the cashiers - they are there to help you. Most of all - have fun saving $$$ - but be pleasant about it.
