RETIRED CVS Coupon DISCUSSION: questions, scenarios, & chat for ALL coupons (including Manufacturers) that can be used at CVS

Quote from Armadillo : Both cards got $2 Nature Made. If your store has the clearanced Probiotics, you could combine the CRT with the $3 insert Q that expires today. (Sadly, my store didn't have them.)

It will come in handy next week for the NM EB deal, although if it prints every day this week we'll have plenty.

Quote from pennysaverr : $1/1 Nivea Body or Hand Lotion CRT, says "exclusions apply" but does not list any - no size restriction - good up to $1.00 it says. so another free tin Credit to armywifeandtwo from weekly ad thread.

The Nivea BOGO50 sale this week excludes good-bye cellulite and firming Q10 (or whatever it is). Maybe those are the exclusions from the coupon.

Quote from Kalanchoe : So, uh...did anyone else notice that the $2.50/2 Hershey's Simple Pleasures IPQ says at the bottom, "Maximum $9.58 value"? Anyone try using this Q yet? Is the $9.58 just a total typo, or does it really take off $9.58, or is it behaving like a $2.50/$9.58, or...? TIA for any help, don't want to be totally surprised at the register when using this Q.

So since the Simple Pleasures are actually FAEB this week, has anyone tried this Q (or the $1/1 Q) yet? Are they working properly? I'm just a little skittish whenever I see a Q that looks weird. TIA!

I got the 2 Nivea and Nature Made again tonight, so it looks like those will be the generics. Also got a $3 off PF cosmetics on 2 of my cards.

Tried both. While both coupons worked and deducted the price of the candy, no overage was given. I think it should work without beeping if you have enough to cover the overage and the cashier scans without manually lowering the value of the coupon.

I didn't get a Nivea, nor did Mom, so I don't think it's a generic.

Update. I went to regular cashier to use this 15 ecb and the damn thing beeped "not valid for card scanned". What a hassle that was. So, even though SCO rejected it, it still invalidated it
(just as scanning 13 digit coupons invalidates them).

This may be store specific setting as 15 crt was beepless for Rose247, for example. But if your SCO rejects ECBs above $10 just avoid using such large ecbs there and if you do so accidentally and it rejects it stand there and wait for assistance to push it through right there because otherwise you'll have a hassle with it later anyway.

Quote from z390z : $15 ecb beeped "coupon not accepted" at SCO for me. Definitely the right card and I scanned 10 ecb and 5 ecb right away instead. This is definitely new - about 2 months ago ecbs of $20 and below were beepless at SCO just like regular cashier. But apparently they changed it to beep on cvs coupons (including ecbs) above $10. This might explain why the $15 crt for PF beeped at SCO for people even without any $/$$.

Head's up...Beauty Club email with $2 off Tresemme (overage on the little $0.99 bottles?) and $2 off Maybelline. I actually received this email on a card that's never ever gotten a Beauty Club email before.

can I use the gas card print out like a $10 ECB or do I need to get a gas card?

I'm having a blank moment here... Can I use the $5 off $10 Vitamin purchase and $4/$20 together on a $20 purchase? I read somewhere else that the Vitamin CRT beeps with the $9.99 Centrum ProNutrients but they couldn't figure out if it was because of the spending requirement on the vitamin CRT or because they combined it with the $/$$.....

Quote from GeraldFord : can I use the gas card print out like a $10 ECB or do I need to get a gas card?

It didn't work as an ECB when I tried it, I had to get a gas card.

You may need to spend at least $30...I spent a little over $50 and used the $5/$10 and 2 $4/$20...Got the Pronutrients (basically for FREE!) with no beeps.

The 5.6oz Hershey's Simple Pleasures pouch rings up 4.89 each 2 or more @ 4.00 each.

Use 1 CVS IP Q 2.50/2 and 2 $1/1 MQ IP for $1.75 per bag of candy

Not in my ad & no tags but that is how that rang up.

Found a couple new to me tearpads:
save 75cents wyb 1 20oz bottle Diet Coke** and 1 package Eclipse Gum (18 pieces any flavor)
**or any other product of the Coca-Cola Company
(exp 9/15/2012) MQ

Save $1 on all L 'Oreal products exp 12/31/12 MQ
not a generous amount but I like the long expiration date & the flexibility of product line ( cosmetic, haircare, skincare, hairdye etc...) better than 0.25/1 L'Oreal shampoo insert MQ

Magic machine was updating at my store so I couldn't scan. I got a CRT for $3 off full size Selma Hayek hair care, then right as I left the store a beauty club email for $2 off Tressemme and $2 off Maybelline. This was all in the past half hour.
