CVS 10/4 - 10/10 ECB Deals & Ad Scan

[Kalanchoe]

Just an FYI - here's the sign advertising the Halloween candy deal. The dates run 10/4-10/24, so I suspect tallies will carry over for all 3 weeks. It also says limit 1 per week, so my guess is that the limit is just 3 throughout the entire 3 weeks. I've only done the deal once so far this week (bought $21 worth of candy), and my limit is not reached.

Quote from coocoocoo : You were able to use two Fruitopia Q's? Did the second one beep?

The second one did beep, but the cashier pushed it through without batting an eye. BTW, my Flu Quiz coupon did NOT beep, so that was good, but I think she would have pushed it through anyway.

Quote from halokiti : I bought 8 Edy's Max b/t Saturday and Sunday and we finally cracked one of them open tonight. It looked like someone ate part of it already, there is no plastic cover on any of the cartons so you can't tell if someone has touched the ice cream or not. (Yes, we also asked if anyone in the house ate any and no one had.) We decided to open the rest of them to see if any of the other ones had problems. Two other ones look like it had melted before and frozen again and it was definitely not on our part b/c we went home right after we bought them.

I opened the cartons of Edy's that I bought last night after reading your post and mine look ok. I did, however, notice that the cartons seemed semi-frozen in the freezer case at the store, and two cartons looked like the ice cream had previously melted (ice cream was on the outside of the carton!). For anyone else buying the ice cream from CVS, you might want to check your cartons completely. And no, there wasn't any plastic cover on any of the cartons that I purchased either. I think I will drop a letter to the company to encourage their use! Yuck! The thought of someone opening the ice cream, eating some, and then me buying it and eating it.

I am $2.06 short of my Lumene ECB so this is my 8th and final transaction planned for this week:

3 Boost 6.99 = 20.97
1 Lumene Face Wipes 2.99
1 Palmolive 0.96
1 LaCross Tweezers 1.00

26.92 - 5/25 = 21.92
$2 IP x 3 for Boost
$1 CVS Q for Boost (from Flu Shot Book)
$2 CVS Q for Lumene
$1 MQ for LaCross
$1 IP for Palmolive (will adjust to 0.96)
10.96 + tax
Use $10 ECB

Earn $10 for Boost, $5 for Lumene

Quote from Kren : I know the feeling!! I used a $2/10 any CVS product, a $5/25, the $2/2 nut CRT, the $2 RIB on both Viologie & Fruitopia, four $4 Schick Qs for four razors, a $1 IP for the Tone bar soap, and a couple of CVS Qs for Dove candy .... I went negative and didn't even get to hand over the Revlon Q for the nail polish. And *she* was the one apologizing!!

Quote from elhaugen : The $2/10 any CVS product. Isn't that for a CVS brand? Or is everyone using it for anything bought at CVS? If yes, then , I have been missing out.

As others have repeatedly pointed out, Viologie & Fruitopia are CVS brands.

Quote from pumpkinag : Not sure if anyone posted before, here is a hidden deal I found today: (Found in SoCal CVS store, not sure if it's a nationwide thing though) The Vaseline Sheer Infusion ( the one that was 7.99 with 7 ECB last week) rang up as .99. Combined with any unused $ 1.50 IP or $ 1.00 CVS beauty book MFC, not a moneymaker but already super sweet! Plus there's no limit or rolling or whatever DDDD I scored 7 bottles without going back and forth, yipee~

I've got more than a dozen $1 coupons, so I'll check it out today! *crossing fingers*

There was a stack of them at my CVS beauty table. They are not the same ones from the RIB. These were on glossy paper and it said $2 off ANY Lumene whereas the RIB one says Lumene Excellent Future purchase. The barcodes are different, also. I am going there again today to see if there are more... will share if I find some.

It's disgusting that there was no plastic cover or any kind of safety seal. I am going to write a letter to Edy's/Dreyer's as well. The fridges at CVS aren't the best. I would also advise anyone buying any frozen foods to check the item thoroughly.

Attached is photo of the cartons, the upper left hand carton is the normal one we included for comparison to the messed up ones. It's going to be interesting to return the ice creams tomorrow.

UGH!!!!!!!

Hi all! Hoping for some help/clarification. I read through all the posts, and I think I have the answers...but not 100% sure. I want to use the CRT $2 off $10 CVS products with the Fruitopia/Viologie BOGO deal. I always have wondered/questioned this --> for BOGO deals, do both items count towards your total (before the "G1" is deducted)?

Essentially (within a tranx that makes it to $25 to use 5/25) would I be able use the 2/10 CRT with this?

Fruitopia 2pk $5
Viologie single $3.99 (can't remember if $3.49 of 3.99 but doesn't matter)
GE Nuts $0.99x2

CVS Item TTL $10.97
CRT 2/10 -$2
Fruitopia B1G1 -$3.99
CRT GE Nuts -$2
CVS Q Ftpia -$2
CVS Q Vlgie -$2

New TTL -$1.02 ???

*I realize that something might get adjusted down -- actually, will they do that for CVS Qs? Or if it's part of a bigger tranx, can the overage get absorbed into some of the other stuff? If no to this, then is there a special order that I should give the above Qs in?

Thanks for your help! I'm a newbie...so hope the above makes sense.

technically, no you are not allowed to combine 2 different $ off CVS Q's but YMMV with the cashier.

from my experience, no. once they hit the total key after scanning your card, the free item during the sale will be deducted in that card savings. so you would need to prep for that free item not totaling to your final total amount to use X/XX. hths.

Quote from rachcresp : I don't know if anyone is interested but I am very unorganized with my coupons and I googled coupon organizer and saw this site. It is just advice on how to organize but it is very helpful. http://mrsascouponorganizer.com/b...ur_own.php

those look good but I think all my coupons would fall everywhere when tipped upside down.. I do use a standard 4 x 6 photo album this works nice too. I had a few. One target , one cvs, one shaws, one stop n shop and then just took that in with me.. Of course i have the others in the car incase i need a coupon I didnt plan
