WOOOHOOOOO! I LOVE LOVE LOVE CVS and this looks like a really good week to me!

CVS has to be one of the best stores to shop at and use coupons. They are always really easy to deal with, the stores aren’t crowded and they have great ECB Deals.

ECB = Extra Care Bucks. ECB’s are like a customer appreciation program that CVS has where they “Reward” their customers for shopping at their stores and purchasing certain products. ECB’s are like cash in their stores. Unlike Walgreens where the reward is attached to a product, ECBs are not connected to any specific product, so you could actually purchase one product that produces an ECB and turn around and purchase the same product again (as long as you haven’t reached your limit on that item) and get another ECB!! Its a little bit hard to grasp until you have used them and it comes together. I will post a simple “Rolling Scenario” at the bottom of this post to show you how you can get many items at CVS for FREE!! You will love CVS as much as me before you know it!!

ROLLING SCENARIO starting with NO ECB’s (thanks iamamoneymagnet )

Here is a nice and simple “Rolling Scenario” to get you started rolling ECB’s at CVS. Make sure that they have all of the product that you need for each transaction on the shelf. You do not have to do all transactions at the same time, but you CAN do them one right after another. CVS is usually not very crowded, I will literally have my deals separated and do transaction #1, tear off the ECB from the receipt to use on the next deal, then have them ring up transaction #2 and pay with the ECB from transaction #1 and so forth. Check it out! (thanks ImaMoneyMagnet)
