CVS Shopping Trip
I was taking advantage of the CVS Proctor & Gamble promotion (buy $30 of P&G products/get $10 ExtraCare Bucks) when I stumbled upon something that was completely new to me (see the video below). I began my trip with $12 in ExtraCare Bucks that I received after three CVS Advisor surveys. (You really should consider joining.) In other words, I began my shopping trip with CVS' money. I had to modify the transaction to comply with the CVS coupon policy of "max. 4 like coupons" per transaction. In addition, this was also printed on the coupons. So, I substituted two GAIN coupons to complete the deal.
My transaction is outlined below:
- Buy 4 TIDE & 2 GAIN detergents @ $5.94 each = $35.64
- $35.64 - $12 ECBs (from CVS Advisor surveys) = $23.64
- $23.64 - $6 manufacturers coupons = $17.64 OOP (out of pocket)
- At the end of the transaction, I received $11ECBs ($10 ExtraCareBucks & $1 ECB Green Bag Tag Rebate)
- $17.64 - $11ECB Reward = $6.64 or $1.11 per bottle
Detergent Labels are a Must Read!
