| Turned out to be a better week than I thought! I ran into CVS hoping to use my Solie raincheck & get a Complete, gone & gone. I was about to leave but thought I'd still scan my card on the way out because I always do. Out printed FIVE coupons! $4/$20 $2 off any Luminere product $2 off Cristophe product (I have no freakin clue if I'm spelling these right!) $10 off any 24.7 Anti Aging Skin care $5 off $20 Skin Effects I was really excited about the Cristophe because I had been flirting with buying a special shampoo that was on clearance for curly hair but hated to lose any ECB's when we get so much shampoo for free. As I'm walking towards the clearance items I see lots of bare spots, OH NO! It's all gone! Lo and behold, there was only one single item left out of all the Cristophe clearance, my shampoo! $2!!!! Then I remembered there were new energy shots free after ECB's. I love to use these before my workouts. I ran back there to get some and I saw that the Promax bars were 3/$5 so free after ECB's. Then I noticed the Luminere stuff was 50%. Then I saw there was anti-aging stuff for 25+ (at 31, it's time to start using preventative stuff but hard to find it geared towards my age group). There was an anti-aging 3 pc kit that was 50% off of $6.99. I couldn't resist! At this point I have to hit $20 and I have a Similac $5 check so I buy one of the bottles of Similac that are 2/10.99 right now. $3.49 Luminere Anti Aging Set $4.99 Energy Shots $2.00 Cristophe Shampoo $5.00 3 Promax Bars $5.50 Similac Subtotal: $20.98 -$4/$20 CVS cpn -$2.00 Luminere CVS cpn -$2.00 Cristophe CVS cpn -$1.00 Promax Bar cpn -$5.00 Similac Check After cpns: $6.98 before tax I didn't even look at the total after & I didn't think and I handed the girl an ECB for $6.99. She tried to put it in and it beeped and I slapped my forehead and reached for it back, she said, "I can key it in for less if you don't mind." I would generally argue but I said okay and somehow it took it! That's never happened to me before. So for the first time EVER $0.00 OOP! Got back: $5.00 ECB Promax bars $4.99 energy shots For a profit of $3.00!!! Then the cashier asks me if I want a 30% friends & family coupon for this weekend. Uh, heck yeah! ![]() And I thought this was going to be a crappy CVS week! |

| Do you just scan your CVS card even if you do not make any purchases? I noticed others commenting on this in other posts, but never knew you could or should do this! |

| cao228, you scan your card at the price checker in select stores, not at check out. I wasn't sure if you understood that from your question. |

| That $10 off 24/7 is a great coupon! there is a $2 off in the new RIB booklets and that would make $12 off. One of my stores had little trial sizes for $5.99 so you would potentially get overage on that if you have a great cashier or there may be an ECB deal. I haven't really looked to hard at the ad or Dec book though! Great job though! |

| Thanks guys! It's nice to have people that actually understand my excitement. I laid all of my stuff out last night and excitedly told him the above story and he just looked at me and said, "okay, I'm sorry, I don't understand any of what you just said...but I'm glad your happy!" ![]() |
