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.)

It's a convention in San Diego. It's been going for 40 years now. It's a comic book convention, but it's now evolved to so much more. It's like a pop culture convention. We've always wanted to go. Sometimes they have really big stars come to it. People dress up in really elaborate costumes (you won't catch me doing that) and lotsa lotsa freebies! I'm going to give them some blood so they'll hook me up even more!

Yahoo! Sounds like a fun time. Although, I've been pretty sheltered all of my life so just being in San Diego alone might be enough of a shock laugh out loud

Yeah, I was looking at a house the other day (not that I plan on buying one) 4br, 3ba on 3 acres for $159,900. I know you can't get that in CA. At least not near any city. laugh out loud
You couldn't even buy a 1/4 acre for that amount here. It is ridiculous.

San Diego is way laid back. Not at all like LA. You'd like it here. I'm a midwest girl and fit in just fine.

OK, if you meet Sylar from Heroes ( Zachary Quinto, he's also Spock in the new Star Trek movie) you HAVE to get me an autograph, I mean seriously, I love him, most talented person I've seen on TV since George Cloony ( not nearly as hot, but still, just as talented)

mine is too, so weird, I mean I know Robert is a pretty common name, but this is freaky, lol
