I wanted to put this together so that everyone can get these great deals even if you're not starting with any ECB. These scenarios also use only IPs, coupons that come in the Sunday Paper and RIB coupons. I won't be linking the actual IP so to find the link you'll need to got to the official match up thread.

Since you are starting with no ECB you will be doing A LOT of rolling and multiple transactions. Most CVS stores are very good about being patient with multiple transactions so just be upfront and prepare yourself for a bit of a long check out!

If anyone copies these scenarios onto another site/blog please give credit to AFC, thank you I will be watching

Transaction 1
2 Benefiber Sticks (TS 3 ct) @ $1.49 each
- $3/1 IP (adjusted down)
2 Theraflu Daytime or Multi-Symptom (TS 1 pack) @ $.99 each
- $3/2 IP
2 Theraflu Caplets 8 ct @ $1.87 each
- $3/2 IP
(Note: For these 2 Theraflu products the CVS register will "group" all 4 products together and take a total of $6 off all 4 products)
Total OOP = $0.00. Earn $4.35 ECB
(Note: for this transaction you can also just get 1 of each and only use 1 Theraflu coupons if you don't want to get 2 of each)

Transaction 11 + 12
2 Revlon Nail (Excludes Top Speed) @ $4.99

Added 11/5/11:

Transaction 13

- $1/2 Mars Holiday Products (11/13 RP) x 2
Use $8.00 ECB
Total = $0.00. Earn $4.00 ECB.

So, in all, you get all the MM, freebies and cheepies, pay only $.20 OOP (plus tax if applicable in your state) and end with $8.00 ECB (or if you add T13 end with $4.00 ECB).

The only thing you wouldn't reach the limit on is Revlon nail polish so if you want you can do 1 more

Note: I am going on literally only an hour of sleep (sick baby AHH!) so please let me know if you see any math errors!

RIB is Reinventing Beauty. It is a magazine CVS puts out for $.99 with a center section of coupons. WM is Walmart. The 10/9 flier had coupons on the back.

I have read that CVS will not allow the Breathe Right to be stacked because of the wording on the IP from CVS stating "Cannot be combined with any other coupon". Does anyone here know if that is confirmed?

Oh I hadn't heard that. CVS always allows MQ and CVS Q to be stacked. And this is a true CVS Q that starts with a 4 and says CVS Pharmacy. But if it's true your OOP would be $1.37 higher so $1.57 total.

[sparknut]

Ok I just wanted to pass that along, I know it is a true CVS Q as well!! I am going to try the 2 together it unless I hear differently.

[Shasha727]

OMG, if I could kiss you I would!! Virtual hug??

[newb83]
