Update On My Last CVS Trip...

2009-04-25T10:43:00.003-04:00

I went back to CVS last night and had told them that I'd like to return the 4 Loreal eyeliners that I had bought that had costs me $8.49 BOGO = $16.98. I told the cashier that they weren't the price that I thought they were and that there was a sticker above them saying $2.49. The cashier rung them up again on her register and 2of them were now ringing up at around $4.49 each and the other 2 were still at $8.49 BOGO. She was very confused of why they were ringing up differenly than what it said on my reciept. She also didn't know how to go about it with all of the coupons that I had used. I told her that I used $8 worth of Loreal coupons. She asked for the manager to come up to help her out. He explained to her that the $4.49 eyeliners were the induvidual prices of the eyeliners, but when they are BOGO, they will ring up $8.49 BOGO. He had us both very confused and he wasn't much help, and then he told her to refund me whatever. So she gave me back a CVS giftcard with $18.00 on it! I felt quilty though, because after all of the coupons I had used it should have only been around $9.00 that I would have got back, and I reminded her of that, but she said that giving me the $18.00 was the easiet way of doing it. So now I have some CVS spending money for quite awhile.

CVS - 4/19 - $0.15 OOP

2009-04-20T17:44:00.005-04:00

I really messed up on my first transaction at CVS. I bought 4 Loreal HIP eyeliners thinking that they were $2.49 BOGO, because that was what the price tag had said directly above them... so I was thinking... wow, awesome deal! Anyway, I get to the register and my total after coupons seemed very high, but I went on to use almost all of my ECBs not really thinking about it again. When I finished my 2nd transaction and left CVS... I looked at my receipt and realized that I had picked up eyeliner that cost $8.49 BOGO! So I was mad at myself that I did not check the price or pay more attention to when the cashier was ringing them up. Now I have to go back to CVS and fix this. I'm not sure how they will do it, but I'm hoping I can get some of my ECBs back.

CVS - 3/1 - Register Wouldn't Accept Coupons!

2009-03-02T16:10:00.004-05:00

I was excited about all of the great deals that I had in my cart at CVS yesterday. I had my coupons ready to go and I thought that I was going to pay only a few cents out of my pocket for everything in my cart, and gain a ton of ECBs. Boy, was I wrong! There was a problem at the register that the cashier said has never happen to her before. My first two coupons scanned with no problem, then the cashier tried scanning the rest of my coupons, and the register refused to accept them. Apparently the register was telling her that it would not accept anymore coupons, because I had exceeded over $2.00 in coupons??? My cashier was very confused and getting frustrated. So she called a manager up and he told her to void the whole order and redo everything. So I took everything back out of the bags and we tried again. It still was not accepting my coupons! I asked her to scan my ECBs... it took them without a problem. The cashier told me that the only thing she could do is take my CVS coupons ($5/$30 CVS coupon & $2.00 off Playskool wipes) and give me the cash back for those, and she wasn't able to use my manufactured coupons at all. But first I had to pay for my things. My total was $36.48. I had used $28.98 in ECBs and my total came down to $7.50. Then I gave her my $5/$30 CVS coupon, and my total came to $2.50. I payed $2.50 out of pocket and she gave me back $7.00 for the $5/$30 CVS coupon and the $2.00 off Playskool wipes coupon. I was so confused at the time, and I figured she knew what she was doing. She gave me all of my manufactured coupons back to use another time, and she apologized for the confusion and the problem with the register. When I got in the car I had realized that what I had done by using all of my ECBs was the wrong thing to do. If my plan would have gone the right way and the register was accepting my coupons, I would have only used a little under $20.00 in ECBs, and gained back $17.97. But by doing it the way that I did, I had used $28.98 in ECBs and got back $17.97 in ECBs. So I lost $8.98 in ECBs. It bothered me the whole day that I lost those ECBs, and that I had actually bought items without using coupons! I should have just put everything back and went to a different CVS, but I was afraid I wasn't going to find everything that I wanted to purchase at a different store. So my CVS experience was not really a good one yesterday, and I don't know how a register just figures it going to refuse to take coupons suddenly. It was very strange. I do wish that the manager would have spent more than 30 seconds up at the register trying to figure out what the problem was. He wasn't very helpful at all to the cashier. Anyway, I'm not going to post my scenario, because I think I pretty much summed it all up already in this post. LOL!

Possiblity Of Cheap Formula This Autumn

2008-08-13T16:59:00.001-04:00

At Target, it is rumored that there were peelies on top of the Similac Advance blue cans of baby formula that advertise new packaging coming in the fall.
They will do away with the metal cans (perhaps for BPA issues) and use large, oval shaped plastic containers with a scooper built into the lid.

That may mean local grocers/retailers will put these "older" packages on clearance, just as they did with the light blue Similac with Iron cans, which can still be found on clearance at times at Walgreens and CVS.

So be on the look out! You could score some cheap formula - especially if you signed up and are recieving formula checks to use in addition to the clearance price!

Thanks to The "Cent"sible Sawyer.

2008-08-09T21:44:00.002-04:00

Here is what I got with the Kelloggs deal at my local Giant Food store in Pennyslvania.

After I get my $10.00 rebate back I will only pay $0.79 for all of these products!

If the gas prices keep falling like they have been, we might even get for under $3.00.

CVS 8/4 $6.86 OOP

2008-08-04T14:30:00.007-04:00

I took another trip to CVS today, and as you can see I got lots of goodies! I spent more than I wanted to though, cause the register lady didn't understand that my first transaction was one whole transaction, so she divided it up, and that screwed things up. She also screwed up my last transaction, and I had to spend $2.00 more than what I was supposed to. Anyway, in the end I spent a total of $6.86 and earned $25.29 in ECBs.

CVS 8/1 - $5.28 OOP

2008-08-01T18:43:00.006-04:00

I made my CVS shopping trip today at a new store by my hubby's work. He told me that they built a new one there a few months ago, and that I should try that one out since we were nearby. The moment I walked in... I was in love! LOL! It was huge and things were easy to find. They had everything in stock that I had on my list, and the cashier was extremely friendly! Also at the front door I found the free edition of the 50 Plus Senior News Lancaster County, PA edition. I found the same thing at the other CVS I go to, but it was the Dauphin County edition. Anyway, inside the newspaper you will find $3 off a $15 purchase for PA CVS stores only, and this coupon doesn't expire until the end of the year. I grabbed 15 of those suckers! Anyway, onto my transactions... I originally had plans to make 3 transactions, but I realized I came up 5 cents short on the Johnson & Johnson's deal, so I had to make another trip back in order to get my $10.00 in ECBs.

CVS $3.00/$15.00 Coupon PA Residents

2008-07-15T18:37:00.004-04:00

I found a new $3.00 off a $15.00 purchase coupon yesterday at my local CVS store. It is in the 50 Plus Senior News for Dauphin County, PA. You can find it at the entrance of CVS... at least it was for the CVS in Hershey, PA, and this coupon is good till the end of the year and it's only valid for Pennsylvania CVS stores. I only grabbed 3, because I thought they were going to expire on July 20th like the other coupons that are out there right now, and now I am wishing I would have looked closer at the date when I picked up the papers. I'm hoping I can get back over there before the rest are taken. Anyway, I just thought I let Pennsylvania CVSers, lol, know about this new coupon I found.
