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.)

I'm at the end of my rope. Dr says he has to go back every day until he improves, and may have to have another blood test. He is on ANOTHER antibiotic, bringing the total to THREE at the same time, a steroid, and cream. He said they should have admitted him last night and with the amount of swelling if it doesn't go down, it could close his urethra. This poor child.

OMG, that poor child, I hope things start getting much better for him!
Quote from BrgnHntr :
Not just my dealing with them - but we had a strike earlier this year so everyone was well aware off their entire compensation. They got theirs bumped - the rest of the support staff got nothing due to that. Not even a COLA this year due to state budget cuts. Our teachers get paid quite well for the area but it's never good enough and the union's constantly throwing it's weight around in everything. Even closing the grade software for the year. Not one moment before their contract states - regardless that because of the strike it's so late in the year and will cause a domino effect of other problems.

I'm just really tired of the whining after this year. Who's truly under appreciated is the support staff in the same classroom with those same kids or more so - the ones in the special ed classrooms. Making a fraction of the pay of the teachers.
NC is having a bunch of teacher pay problems. I do think that bad teachers should not be rewarded ( the Union protects good and bad teachers, at least they do in NC) but teachers in general ( and their support staff) should be paid well, they hold our children's futures in their hands, and pissing them off and paying them pennies is not a great way to form the future crop of nation leaders, now is it?

Hathor, I just got my mail for the first time in a couple of weeks (yeah, I suck and only get my mail a few times a month lol) and saw your thank you card with the coupons. You're awesome! I can't wait to use the coupons. I'm glad you're enjoying the wrap and that it is giving you some hands-free time while you wear your princess!

I'm hungry, too. I would love for someone to make me breakfast. However, since it is just me and the dumb cat, that's not going to happen.

We just got back from our home inspection, all is well except for the crawl space, it needs all new insulation and to be cleaned out and such, but other than that everything looks good.

I'm going to go plan my grocery shopping for today and try to clean up a bit later.

I just got caught up on that thread and would have to totally agree about how some people make it personal and others stick to the issue that is being discussed.

ok, that thread was annoying as all heck, why did people let it get so personal? I understand it being personal, if like Jenni and Bargoon you have family or yourself, who are teachers/teachers aides, etc, but someone who isn't a teacher, being that obsessed with talking smack about teachers, that was sorta alarming.
