The link didn't end up emailing me a coupon when I entered my Nor Cal zip code. Which zip code works? TIA!

NEVERMIND - it went to my spam email box!

I haven't been CVSing much since the babies came, but I need a few birthday cards and noticed the ECB deal at CVS this week. Can someone tell me if the 99cent cards work or if I need to get the $1.99/$2 ones? Thank you!

I saw on a blog that the .99 cent DO work, but I haven't tried it yet. I go the .99 a few weeks ago with this ECB offer, and it did work. HTH.

I haven't done the deal myself, but earlier in the week I saw reports that the 99cent cards do work. Plus, use this FB coupon for $2 off 3 cards (Hallmark):

Thank you both! I really appreciate it. I'll give the .99 cards a try. (Looks like the FB Q has run out of prints, but thank you!)

Hallmark Facebook promotion has been extended thru 06/30/13.
Working link for Hallmark IP (SD adds garbage to our links, so I am making this non-clickable. Copy/paste url, it will work.):

Printing tips:
- Cpn prints with 31 days rolling expiration date.
- Current limit is 1 print per computer, however:
--- cpn code is generic, print to pdf and reuse;
--- next time change your IP and get a new print with later exp. date.

Last month there was a date typo in fine print and clerks-who-read-coupons refused to accept them. Hallmark fixed the error, and currently cps are good.

At CVS:
- These used to scan fine, but now are beeping on a purchase of 3 x 99c cards.
- Allow cashiers to read all details and it should be pushed thru. If not - ask for manager.
- Warning: there are 2 barcodes on coupon. If the one on right side (labeled "for use at Hallmark stores") is scanned at CVS - it will CHARGE you $2.

Deal tip for CVS:
Current RIB magazine has B3G1F CVS cpn (up to $2.50).
Buy 4 cards (3 x .99 for EB offer, 4th nicer one free with cpn).

~HTH~

Kohl's - Bounce back coupon

Today I received a $10/10 bounce back coupon for spending $20 or more (pre-tax). It is good Dec 4-8, in-store only. Hopefully we'll get a $10/30 peelie to stack with this!!!

Thank you Grail! THat is awesome info about the HAllmark deal at CVS.

Jpow - I have not heard of this bounce back coupon. I was wondering why there were so many $10 off $10 at kohl's for sell on fleabay (at ridiculous prices). Those must be them?

I am hoping for a $10 off $30 soon too.

no Axe Q in merc....

Grocery Outlet - I got a $20 giftcard in the mail today for a class action settlement lawsuit.

Me too! Also, for those in/near EG, the monthly shopper magazine has a coupon for free 1# Challenge butter

cvs 30% off took 1.45 off $150+ transaction
about $30 worth was on sale
I would say that we are in the "region" where it doesn't work on ecb-producing items

and all kinds of other issues
this store used to take expired CRTs but no longer does. I guess that's nat'l policy now
not a great night

went to NH to ue $20 CAT from Lowe's GC deal
no disclaimer about dairy
bought $8 worth of milk
$14 meat
had about $17 more in cart in case milk didn't work
scanned Qs then 20CAT-took off $0
remove $4 milk, added all $17 and still had to be pushed thru
($8was kelloggs -$6 Qs so I needed it all to get over $20)
I thought the Qs would cover the cost of milk, but in the end I paid $3xx

then I get home, go to put milk away & sounds like a maraca. it was frozen! called # on receipt, which is corp BTW- and they called store. they were aware of issue and I can return it Was very strange, as I did CVS run after NH and it had been in the car for a long time. Wondered if we had a cold snap while I was shopping
How did I not pick up on it when I took it from the shelf?

Staples has 10% off one item Q -thru tomommow IIRC
adn there were 2 FAMIR items thru today
read 9.99, get 9.99 and 6.99 -$3 get 3.99
I had $12 Rewards to cash out, sounded perfect
except the -$3 is a 2nd rebate on the same item
I still get it all back but just another step on the path of confusion tonight was...

ETA: NH/Kelloggs
several boxes had the movie code-haven't seen those for awhile
frosted flakes, choc & blueb. mini-wheats, crunchy nut
and on front display I found a bunch of Krispies with free m&ms stickers! (b2cereal, g 1 M&M)
I think next week (12/9) CVS has Krispies 1.99,& M&Ms are 2.50 b10g3. If the stars are aligned and can use both 1.50IP & free M&Ms Qs, should be 3.96 for 8 krispies, 4 M&M, get back 3ecb

Maybe it was from that icy look you gave them at the store. But I know what you mean; everything seems to be a bit wonky lately.
