I just realized that there is no CVS where I am going next week. My ecb's expire on the 10th.

So I need to spend them in the next three days.

I have $6.98, $4.00, $3.00 and $3.00.

I have no x/xx coupons in my name right now. IF they beep I cannot use them.
No stay free bogo

I have the free chapstick
I have 3 of the $4.00 soeili bic q's (have to buy razor and refills with it)
And probably other q's from the last two weeks inserts.

TIA

anyone?

Did you do the free stuff for the month yet?

I came up with a 2 transaction scenario.

1st:
2 Water Babies sticks 9.98
CVS makeup remover wipes 2.99
$0.01 filler (whatever is cheapest)
Use: $6.98 ECB, $4 ECB, $2 beauty handbook q
OOP: Whatever the cost of the filler
Earn: $10 ECB, $2.99 ECB

2nd:
Physician's formula mascara 7.99
CVS travel qtips 0.99
(If you don't have a mascara q, you need a $0.02 filler)
Use: $2 beauty handbook q, $1 off Physician's formula q, $3 ECB, $3 ECB
OOP: If you don't have a mascara q, you spend $0.98. If you do, you spend whatever the cost of the filler.
Earn: $7.99 ECB

After both transactions, you have a net gain of $4 ECB's. HTH!

coppertone and physician's formula masacara are two senerios I was thinking as well.

Easy-peasy if all you care to do is roll and dont' want to spend any money:

1 Accu-check meter 9.99
1 physician's formula mascara 7.99

total 17.98

Use:
6.98 ecb
4.00 ecb
3.00 ecb
3.00 ecb
1.00 physician's formula coupon

pay: $0 (you will probably have to pay the tax on $1.00)
If you don't have the physician's formula coupon, you pay $1.00 plus tax

Get back: $9.99 ecb for the meter and $7.99 ecb for the mascara. Quick and easy.

Just remember that the CVS makeup remover is a dead deal and only giving $1 ECB rather than the $2.99 that it was giving. Just an FYI - it will still be free with the $2 beauty Q, but you will only get the $1 ECB back so your ECB's will not grow as much. (this is per people who tried the deal today and it only gave the $1)

I think I will do this as I will be in Colorado for two weeks at the end of the month and don't know if I will be able to use them before then. Haven't made it to shop CVS in a bit. Want to make sure they don't exp though! Thanks for this scenerio!

This is great! Thanks! I might have to use this to roll a couple of ECB.
