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

Quote from tots05 : how about doing the JF first with your ECB, CRT and JF mq? then use the $10ECB to do the gas deal with the rest of your mqs and crts.

just realized no CRT. Just JF mq, and the 5. But I do notice I am short about 6.xx for another Crest $5.
I'd still have to put in another $8-9 cash for JF. HC is !3.xx here.

Guys, I've been out of CVS for awhile -- stepped back in for the Wisk deal (6 bottles of detergent for less than $8 was good enough to lure me back) and to prep for the new store that just opened near me.

I hadn't used my CVS card in so long I couldn't find it, and got a new one (any disadvantage to that?). Anyway, I registered it for the beauty club -- the email never showed up with the 10% pass -- and yesterday I found it in my spam mail folder -- it had expired the day before! I called CVS explained what happened and that I wouldn't have been out anyway due to the hurricane warning and they said they couldn't resend me the 10% pass, but would send me a 20% beauty pass that would print on my card in a "few days". Anyone have any experience with how long this is likely to take? I'd like to plan my shopping trip and do the regenerist deal for the gas card. Is Thursday likely the day? Will it show up online under my deals so I can check before?

Meanwhile, I'm loving the coupons that arrived in the mailer for the new store: $5/15, $3 off of any CVS item, free 2 liter coke, free Hershey's Air Delight, free 20 ct Bayer Advanced, and a free $5 gift card if you "met the pharmacy team" (I waited until a non busy time, inquired about the price of a particular prescription to see if it was competitive, and had that GC lickety split -- the price on the med was good too!).

It's interesting because it looks like you have to SIGN UP to get the bonus double QEBs?

For those of us that strive for the lowest possible OOP, this is pretty useless.

CRTS yesterday:

Crappy $3/15 Caliber

Buy 3 Hallmark Cards get 1 free (up to $2.50)
$1 off any Olay Body lotion, body wash, or bar soap
$1 off Root Touch-Up hair color item

Shortcut. Open up another tab and log into your CVS account. Then click the link. Everything will be prepopulated for you.

Curious about the mailer for new store... how close are you to the new location?

I currently have 3 CVS within walking distance of my home but a 4th one is under construction. It will be as close as the other 3 but in another direction.

I wonder how many blocks/ feet you need to be to a store location for it to be considered your home store location?

I am within 10 blocks of the new store.. next closest store would be an additional 10 blocks away.

Quote from karmalaw : I am within 10 blocks of the new store.. next closest store would be an additional 10 blocks away.

10 blocks... hmm, I need to count blocks -- I think I am within 10 blocks for two locations but the new one might be around 14 blocks.

one RiteAid & one WAGs are closer to me even though they are surround by CVS locations.

There just aren't enough stores...

I am totally jealous of your CVS coupons!

If CS meant the regular weekly q that seems to go out each Thursday, then yep, it'll be Thursday.
But they said they'd send you a "beauty pass" in a few days? Hmmmm...those are just about useless...they don't work on non-sale stuff if it's producing an ECB.

So, I'm not really sure what you're getting, or when. Helpful, I know

If it does indeed turn out to be the regular weekly coupon, it should show up online in your account.


The main disadvantage to a new card is there is no spending history on it, so it may be weeks or months before you get anything other than generic CRT's. But, if you used the same phone number, perhaps CVS will tie your old one in to it? I'm not really sure on the mechanics of that, so can't really do anything more than speculate. I think others have had their old cards swapped out for new ones and can provide more info though!

I know I read this question in a thread but I don't remember if it was answered or which thread it was in.

How long after earning a $5 beauty club ECB does it print?

It takes 2 days to load to your account and print the $5. So earn it on Monday and it will print on Wednesday.

Wow. That was a fast answer. I just reloaded the page and it appeared like magic. Thanks and reps!

For those of us who fill Rx's @ CVS, this is awesome news. I hope they count 'cause that's about the only upside to filling all those dang prescriptions....
