Walgreen's/CVS

  • Oct. 9th, 2008 at 11:51 AM

Who is addicted to shopping at Walgreens?
How about CVS??

What kind of deals do you get there??

I am wanting to get the best deals at these stores, and I have been doing some research..
I have found this "RR" when they are refering to Walgreen's, and it has to do with saving money.. I am just curious to know what it means..

At CVS, I read people use ECB's, what is that??

Oh my. You're definitely chatting up my alley! I get decent deals at Walgreens - lots of rebates which is always fabulous. But I like CVS even more because I see the savings immediately. Once I had over $100 worth of products there and after ecb's (which are there coupons that print out on the receipt) and regular coupons I spent about $5 :)

What do you mean ECB's are coupons that print out on the receipt?? It is like $3.00 off next transaction?? This is what I am trying to figure out..

Yeah things like that. You rip that part off and it's like a coupon. You need to have your CVS card present to use them though. And you can combine them with other coupons.

Thanks. I appreciate your insite.
I have a list of what I want at CVS with coupons.
We will see how it goes.

Okay, when i shop at CVS i use my Extra Care card. I all the time get coupons on my receipts, sometimes 3 or 4 of them. They'll be like 4 dollars off of your next 20.00 purchase. Or sometimes you actually get a free dollar off of any purchase, but my store doesn't do a lot of Extra Care Bucks, mostly coupons. Sometimes i'll get really good ones. You can get 10 dollars off a 50 dollar purchase, but you have to be buying a lot to make that coupon work. Cold medicines and stuff usually. Sometimes it'll just be 2 dollars off a 10 dollar purchase or something. I used one of the 4 dollars off a 20 dollar purchase a while back when i went in and bought myself some new makeup. I'm doing the bare minerals thing now and i got some foundation powder, some new eyeshadow, and stuff like that.

Some coupons are more along the lines of 'Buy this or that and get this free!' Some are on specific products, like if you buy CVS brand cold medicine, you can get some free or something. I don't get to use all my coupons but i use a good share here and there when i have money to shop there.

Thank you Tracey for your insite.
I greatly appreciate it.
I will find out how well I do with my trip to CVS this Sunday... I still think at times Walmart is the cheapest, unless you get the good deals at other stores that are doing.

I saw some ladies in Walgreens the other day and they had this huge book full of coupons and stuff along with the sale paper and a buggie full of stuff...I heard them saying stuff about how the hole thing was gonna only cost them a few bucks. I wish I could make it work (although I haven't look real close at it) but I hardly ever shop there...maybe I should.

I can make some good deals at Walgreen's, but I only buy what I need or use a lot of, if it is in a good range of money I want to spend.

RR = Register Rewards. ECB = Extra Care Bucks. You can earn these by buying the things that will earn you them in that week. Combine a special that will earn you some with a coupon and you can potentially save a lot of money.
