I think you should be cautious about doing 10 softsoaps per transaction. The TQ is restricted to 1 per transaction.

This deal is good for a few more weeks. It's not necessary to do so many at once, which will draw unwanted attention to yourself.
I actually didn't have my TQs my printer took a vacay lol so I didn't get to print them.

When does the deal end? I guess I need to buy a new printer...I JUST bought this one in January from amazon and it was over $200...now the paper wont feed...grr

Wife and I used to go to Target every Sunday. We stopped going becuase we were buying to much crap. Don't feel the need to hit up new ones though becuase they generally all have the same stuff. I do try and pull that when every there's a new BevMo. "Babe, we've never been in that BevMo!" yummy
Ohhhhhh... that is where you are wrong. Wink It may look like they all have the same stuff, but when you are there as much as we are, you know the subtle price differences, various clearance markdown percentages, slightly different items, etc, etc. And different cashiers too Wink

Buying too much crap... Teehee I'm going to have to plead the 5th on that one.

Ok, I have a CVS question for those of you who partake in the fun of CVS. Can your extra bucks be rolled on the same deal? There is a promotion this week for $8.99 Pampers, get $5 bucks back. I have some $4 Pampers MQs making them free after the bucks back. But here's the thing... I have no desire to end up with a ton of bucks that I don't know if I'll use. So can I roll the $5 bucks into the next pack of Pampers? Does that make sense??? I'm sure at least some of you are laughing because I would guess there is better CVS terminology that I just don't know. Any help would be appreciated. Oh, and here's the LINK [cvstoday.com] where I saw about the deal.

Yes, you can roll ecbs. Looks like there is a limit of three packs. You can try something like this if you want them free:

1st: buy Bayer Contour Meter for 14.99 and use the 30.00 q. get back 5.00 ecb.

2nd: turn right around and go get your diapers, use your meter q and diaper q to pay for, get 5.00 ecb.

3rd: go get another pack and use the 5.00 pamper ecb and mfg q to pay for, get another 5.00 ecb...

In the end you will end up with a 5.00 ecb to use on something in the store.


Hope that makes sense, I haven't had my coffee yet Coverlaugh

Ohhh - very cool. I wonder if the nor cal longs have finished the convert and are giving ECBs. If so, this might be a good use for a few of my $4 MQs. Anyone know about nor cal CVSs (the store previously known as Longs Wink ).

depending on how many q's you have for cvs, you may want to think about getting a card for your cat, dog, Coverlaugh etc... Personally, I have one, my 'mother' has one, my ds and dd each have one.....if I needed diapers I could do multiple trips and come out with 12 packs, 4 monitors and 20.00 in ecbs for whatever...(IIRC razors are free with ecbs too)

I saw that about the razors - and I think our nor cal ad is the full ad (although I'm still checking)... I'm going to need a major crash course in CVS this week Embarrassment Embarrassment Embarrassment

I already have a card, but my kids, husband, and cats have all expressed getting in on the deals - any problems with multiple cards out of one household? Wink

My Mom and other relatives are also interested - any issue with them using their cards here while they are on vacation from out of town? Wink

Do you guys need to keep track of which ECB was issued with a given card (and only use it when you are using that card)? I seem to remember that ECBs are tied to a specific card.

ECB's are card specific. I bought several coupon holders in the dollar spot at T in various colors and used each one for each separate card and it's ecbs.

You can have more than one card, but IIRC only one card per address (don't know if they enforce this, as I haven't shopped there in about a year, after I divorced them for T Coverlaugh)

You may want to also check out the CVS clearance thread, as they usually have good clearance items to use/roll ecbs with...but if you get food ALWAYS ALWAYS check the exp. date.

I had 2 cards at the same address and never had a cashier say anything....

Yes, the ECB's are card specific...Unlike RR's you can roll them for the same deal...Also suppose your total AC is 4.98 and you are paying with $5 ECB, the cashier can adjust it down to 4.98....So you loose 2 cents but you dont have to add a filler....

Thanks so much for the replies. Game on, I'm getting some free diapers this week. Do you think I can use up all 80 of my $4 Pampers Qs in one week??? Maybe I should just shoot for 1/2 of them and save the rest for a diaper deal at T. Off to shop. bounce

Don't forget - at CVS, there are LIMITS on how many times you can do each deal PER CARD. Check the limit on the ECB offer to see how many times you can do it on each card... it'll be printed in the ad, it will say "Limit 1" or "Limit 2" beside the offer. That's why you need several cards to be able to stock up on a deal.
