CVS In Store Coupon Printer Rocks!

Followed the advice found on AFC to scan CVS card multiple times at red coupon kiosk until coupons stopped coming--would never have known it would scan more than 1x per visit!
Coupons Printed In Store:
$2 Extra Care Bucks
$2 off any Revlon
$2 off any 2 Gold Emblem nuts
up to $1.99 free CVS toothbrush
[$1 off CVS 3pk paper towels--didn't use]
[$2 off any Dr Scholl's--didn't use]
Purchased:
2.50 Sweet & Sour bar mix
2.50 Ocean Spray cran juice
0.10 bottle deposit Ocean Spray
2.00 Hershey's minis
5.79 Children's Advil
4.59 BOGO Revlon nail polish (2)
1.99 CVS toothbrush
1.49 Gold Emblem caramel corn w/peanuts (woo hoo! counts as "nuts")
1.49 Gold Emblem caramel corn w/peanuts
22.45 subtotal
-1.00 printable Children's Advil (find on AFC printables search)
-2.00 any Revlon
-1.99 free CVS toothbrush
-2.00 off 2 Gold Emblem nuts
15.46 subtotal
-3.00 $3 off $15 found in pharmacy welcome folder
-2.00 extra care bucks printable
10.46 subtotal
-9.99 extra care bucks used
0.47 total OOP!
*used subtotals to divide types of coupons/ecb's so no confusion on superstacking or real OOP for those who count ecb's as cash

Anyone know why I wasn't charged sales tax on anything? Totally fine with it , but wondering if it's normal?

Oh yeah--got 5.79 ecb's for Children's Advil!

So that's not usual? It was just my 2nd trip to CVS & the store is new--do you think it's a special promo for new store/new customer? I was hoping to score these pretty regularly--oh well! Still very happy

Ive only been doing this about 3 weeks so I dont know if its really unusual but I have never seen anyone post to say they got ECBs from a scanner! I have a scanner at 1 store and it only gives me Gold Emblem Qs - CVS brand water, nuts, candy...and CVS paper towel Qs. My scanner sucks!

Today I FINALLY got my first CRT for a CVS toothbrush!

I got 1.50 EB, $25 CG Q with prescription, and a couple others. It was AWESOME to get EBs. I was totally shocked.

My store's stupid scanner has been out of order for over six weeks!!! Should I complain to management? I don't want to seem really weird.

hey OP - what is this you mentioned in your original post:

"-3.00 $3 off $15 found in pharmacy welcome folder"

did you fill a script to get this? Just asking because I know everyone would like to get their hands on them too!

I would have never thought to use the $2 off 2 Gold Emblem Nuts on the Caramel Popcorn without your post. I actually got them for free because they were $1 at my store. Thanks!

As for why you weren't charged sales tax, did you hand your ecbs first? mrsfloyd's post in the "Why was my ecb adjusted down?" thread, started 8/10/08 by Kt&Cj'sMama, might explain it. (I wasn't allowed to post the URL because I'm a newbie.) I have to go thank her now too.

Did not have to transfer/fill Rx to get the coupon--the store is new so they had a stack of light blue folders sitting on a table right inside the entrance. The coupon is in the pocket on the right side of the folder at the bottom of one of the insert flyers (easy to miss). Try asking at the pharmacy counter for info or the welcome folder and maybe you can score one!

Thank you! It's post #9 in this thread Why was my ecb adjusted down?
I think I can add links now...we'll see

Glad now that everything got screwed up and the manager decided to take my ECBs first!

yes all the stores should have them. sometimes they are in the back of the store by pharmacy(they want you to walk the store for added sales) or some stores have them in the middle of the drive aisle or up front.
