CVS-week of July 27

When I say I get something FREE at CVS, keep in mind that I am paying for that item with ECBs that I have already earned from a previous purchase. I have been rolling the same ECBs over and over for a long time. So you might not have ECBs, I get that. At some point if you want to do this, you will have to make a small monetary investment. But keep them rolling and that money will pay off more than tenfold, I promise! So go to CVS and get yourself a shopper card and get started, this is a good week to do it.

Bandaids: The bandaids are $2.99 with $2 ECBs back, and in today’s paper there’s a $1 off coupon. So I paid for mine with the $1 coupon, and $1.99 in ECBs, and got $2 ECBs back. Bonus, imo: There are LOTS of varieties of bandaids to choose from, much more so than usual. Limit 1 per card.

Candy: Candy is buy $10 worth, get $5 ECB back. There are very few coupons out there to go with this deal, unfortunately, so it will most likely be a $5 loss of ECBs. I like candy so I’m getting some. It is well marked with signs in the Landenberg store and there is a ton to choose from. If you have the will power, save it for Halloween. Limit *5* deals per card.

Revlon: Remember last Sunday when I told you to hang on to your Revlon coupon? There are select Revlon items for $9.99 with $9.99 back. So use the $2 coupon, pay $7.99 for the item, either in cash or ECBs, and get $9.99 back. This is what couponers call a ‘moneymaker.’ You will gain more ECBs than what you’ve invested in the item. The Revlon was not well-marked at the Landenberg store, so grab the weekly circular to make sure you’re getting the correct item. Limit 1 per card.

Photo DVD: This is an item I’m excited about. You can make a photo DVD, like a photo slide show with music, for $9.99 and get $9.99 back in ECBs. Limit *3* per card. Not all stores have the special kiosk and I forgot to ask this morning at Landenberg. I have asked at Kennett and Jennersville and both have the machine. Each DVD holds up to 60 photos and you can choose different themes and different music. What a great idea for an xmas gift or Grandparents’ day! ETA: I took out the information regarding the $5 coupon, it is not to be used with sale items. See the CVS Photo Technicians for more details on this and technical support. The photo books were pretty easy to make, I expect these will be as well.
*NOTE* Do NOT, I repeat, DO NOT pay for all 3 of your DVDs at once, or you will end up with an ECB for $29.97. If you want to play this rolling game, it can be very tough to spend $29.97 all at once at CVS. Pay for them separately so that you get three separate ECBs for $9.99 each. This same holds true for any deal.
If you have the Revlon coupon, I would buy that first, since for $8 you’ll get 9.99 back. Then use the 9.99 ECB to pay for first dvd, which will generate another, and just roll it.

Happy Shopping!
