Coupon deals at CVS

You can get some good deals from CVS. Every month they put out a booklet that you can pick up in the store (normally by the entrance). This booklet shows items that you can get extra bucks from after purchasing the item. Example: This month Speed Stick deodrant is on sale for $1.99 and if you purchase 1 this month you get a $1 extra buck printed out at check out that you can use on your next trip to CVS (usually you have 2 weeks or so to use). You can use Extra Bucks for anything except cigarettes, prescriptions, gift cards and few like items,( it will state the items on the coupon). Just about any regular item, you can use this on. Well, let's say I purchase the deodrant for $1.99 and I have a manufacturers coupon for 1.00, then my total for the deodrant is .99 and I get a $1 extra buck for next time. Basically this item is free, after Extra bucks. Another example is Always infinity pads is $4.98 and you get $4.98 extra bucks back. So basically it is FREE. The great thing with CVS is that you can use as many Extra Bucks coupons as you want in one transaction. You need to think of extra bucks as cash and if you are not using these, it's like you are throwing money away. So let's say that I bought the deodrant and the infinity pads. I have a coupon for 1.00 off the deodrant and I have a 1.00 coupon for the pads (I just made a $1.00 on the pads because I will get the full price back on the extra buck coupon). My total for both products before coupons is $6.97, after coupons it will be $4.97 and I will get $5.98 back in extra bucks that I can use on another trip. I am getting more back than I spend. Basically, I am making a $1.07 profit. With the use of coupons and sales and extra bucks, you can get some fantastic deals at CVS. If you register at CVS.com, they send out emails with coupons also. For ex. "spend $15 get $3 off." You can use this coupon in conjuction with your other coupons. (You can only use 1 of these type coupons in a transaction.) Also, remember to look at what the limit is for items with extra bucks. Some have a limit of 1 item to get an extra buck back, some have 5 or more. Also, the extra buck specials for the month is over by the 25th day of the month. Happy shopping!
