CVS Info:

First of all, you will need a CVS ExtraCare card. This is obtained easily at any store at the register. Some will ask you to fill out the form then and there, others will just give you the card and ask you to return the form later.

Once you have the card, you can now start CVSing

The biggest thing to understand is that CVS uses a promotional program called "ExtraCare Bucks" (commonly abbreviated as ECBs.) These print out on your receipt immediately once you purchase an item offering them; almost like an instant-rebate you get at the register. You can turn around and use them anytime on almost anything in the store, except for alcohol, cigarettes, and gift cards.

Often, CVS advertises items as "Free after ECB" – For example, throughout the month of November, CVS has Crest Pro Health Whitening Toothpaste in 4.2 oz size, for free after ECB. The cost is $3.49, but you get $3.49 back instantly on your receipt. The best part is that there are often coupons available that can actually help you earn money… like for the above toothpaste, there are $1 off coupons available, meaning the item would be $2.49, but you get $3.49 in ECBs back. The limit on this toothpaste for this month is 2. So if you wanted to start off small to get into CVSing, the thing to do would be to buy one toothpaste in the first transaction (and use a coupon if you have one, so that you either pay $3.49 or $2.49 in cash), then use the $3.49 ECBs you get back from that first transaction to pay for the second tube of toothpaste, and again, receive $3.49 more in ECBs.

The trick now is to roll your ECBs so that you rarely pay more than maybe a dollar or two in tax on transactions, instead using your ECBs from previous transactions… then earning more to keep doing the same. It's a cycle (and a game/addiction to some, lol.)

ok...think back....how much self-discipline did you have at his age? And boys' self-discipline is like 1/2 of girls. laugh out loud I'm not saying let him off the hook, I'm just saying he's a kid and that's how they are. hug
Honestly, I had a lot of self-discipline......until I graduated high school and moved out. Then all hell broke loose but at least I was on my own. I'm not saying I was perfect and I'm sure I drove my parents crazy over different things. However, this just seems to be an ongoing issues that we can't come to a resolution about.

I honestly, truly don't ask a lot of my kids. One firm rule is no xbox after 10pm. He knows that. It isn't a new rule. I shouldn't have to remind him of this rule nightly.

Quote from mattman688 :
i love me some 360...what game is he addicted to? (if its call of duty or halo then he should be exempt from your wrath laugh out loud)
My guess is Halo. He has Halo (a few different ones) and COD. But, if I'm not mistaken it is Halo that he plays every chance he gets.

And, as far as your earlier question....he's in high school. He's almost 16 years old.....but I can still take his ass down Stick Out Tongue

ETA: He just spent a stupid amount of money to get Halo Wars for the maps or something ridiculous like that.

Well, if you figure out how to do that, let me know, because I have to remind my kids of every stinkin' rule every stinkin' day. Annoyed
