EXTRA CARE BUCK DEALS:  Remember, ECB’s are just like cash at CVS.  It is a type of currency that is a reward given to you from CVS for purchasing certain items in their store!  You can turn around and use the ECB’s that you earned off one deal to purchase the same thing and get another ECB as long as you haven’t reached the maximum limit for that item (an example this week would be on the crest deal your limit is 2 but on the blink tears your limit is 1).  *Keep in mind that this is not how it works at Walgreens.  ECB’s will print out at the BOTTOM of your register receipt.  Make sure you check your receipt immediately after making your purchase.  ALSO, you can scan your ECB card at the RED KIOSK machine in the store to get additional coupons and sometimes ECB’s!  You can scan your card two times per day (even in the same visit).  One more thing…you can use a CVS coupon (usually from their kiosk) AND a manufacturers coupon on the same item!! Yippey!
