CVS: Spent $1 and Got $9 ECB’s Back

This week CVS has a few great deals.  I wasn’t able to get to the store until later in the day but was still able to get these two items for $1.09 and received $9 ECB’s to use on my next CVS purchase.

  • Revlon Finger Nail Polish – $3.99 with $3.00 ECB’s
  • Schick Hydro 5 Razor – $8.79 with $5.00 ECB’s

The total was over $13 with tax before using coupons.  Here are the coupons I used on the two items.

  • Used $3.00 CVS Coupon from the Kiosk inside the store
  • Used $1.00 Revlon Manufacturer Coupon
  • Used $2.00 Schick Manufacturer Coupon
  • Used $6.58 ECB’s from previous purchase (I had a couple more ECB’s but couldn’t use them because they were worth more than $1 so I will be able to use them on a future purchase along with the $9 I received today).  If you use a $2 ECB to pay for $1.09 worth of goods you will not receive the additional $0.91 back so today I decided to pay the $1.09 out of pocket and use my $2 ECB on a future purchase since they weren’t expiring until later in the month.

I received $9 ECB’s back today:

  • $3.00 ECB’s for Revlon Purchase
  • $5.00 ECB’s for Schick
  • $1.00 ECB’s for Green Bag Tag

When you shop the CVS sales regularly and have ECB’s that you can roll over toward future purchases the bonus ECB’s start adding up (Green Bag Tags and Beauty Club).  As you can see from my shopping trip today you don’t have to purchase a lot to save money when shopping at CVS.  You can pick and chose what is best for your family.   I would love to hear your CVS shopping story for this week!
