Are you new to CVS? Not really sure how to get started and start using their extrabuck program to your advantage? Below is an example of a shopping scenerio you could do to get you started!
If you do not have a CVS card yet, you can go HERE to sign-up for one or you can get one in any CVS.
These are just club cards, they get you coupons, discounts and money back. They are not credit cards, and there is no fee to get one!
Once you get your card, be sure to register HERE so you can get emails with great coupons, sometimes for free items! Your first email will contain a coupon good for $4/$20 purchase!! These are great coupons to get ahold of!
So, here is a deal scenerio to help get you started. You can do your own, this is just an example of what you can do to pay the least amount and give you an idea of how to go about it!
Assuming you signed up for emails and you got your first email with the $4/$20 coupon, here is what you could start with:
Transaction #1
Buy (2) Huggies diapers 2/$17.98
Buy Crest white toothpaste $2.99
Total is $20.97
Use the following coupons
$4/$20
(2) $3/1 Huggies
$1/1 Crest
OOP $9.97
*On your receipt, you will get back 5eb for the Huggies and 2eb for the Crest
This is like cash that you can use on your next purchase
Transaction #2
Buy (2) Stayfree pads @ $3.98 each
Total $7.96
Use BOGO coupon
use 2eb coupon from your previous receipt
OOP $1.98
*On your receipt, you will get back 4eb for the stayfree
You now have a total of 9eb (5 from Huggies and 4 from stayfree) to use on your next purchase!! This is a great amount to have and keep it rolling! You can save them to see what deals come up the next week to use them on, but be sure to use them before they expire!! This is like money, and nobody wants to throw away money!
Also, try and use your eb on the purchase of items where you get more eb back! You always want to keep getting eb so you can keep paying little oop!
Like, next week they are having a deal on complete multi-purpose contact solution
on sale for $8.99 and you get back 8.99eb
Get a small filler item for like $.25 (there are usually caramels or something at the counter)
Total is $9.24
Use your 5eb from Huggies
and 4eb from stayfree
OOP $.24!!!
Plus, you get back 8.99 in eb to use next time!!
Oh, and do not forget to scan your card at every visit in the machine that looks like the one below! These like to spit out great coupons. These are all CVS coupons and can be combined with manufacturer coupons for an even better deal!
And, also keep a look out for their reinventing beauty mag. These are only $.99 and have great CVS and manufacturer coupons inside. They are normally at the checkout or by the photo shop.
Confused? If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!
