Use the 1/2 Dasani coupons in the beauty handbook to get an extra ECB. It’s a great way to squeeze in an extra dollar if you’re close to a limit.

As others are reporting, I got the towelettes today and they only gave $1 ECB- bummer!

I went to CVS last night and got the $2.99 ECB for the towelettes, but went to a different store this morning and only got $1. Looks like they fixed the bug!

I went and got my second pack of wipes today and also only got 1ECB and not $2.99 like a couple days ago. Was wondering how does it work if you return these things? Do you have to give back the ECB or does it just not work after an item has been returned?
I am bummed, my store doesnt carry the face sticks either and the other store I checked was out. We actually could have used these!

Did the cloths yesterday (once), got back 2.99. Did it today, only got back 1.00…

Maybe they’ve changed this overnight?

I just got a $4 off a $20 purchase in my email that is good for July 4th only. I was about to head to CVS when I saw it.
So check your emails!

I got $2.99 back for the cloths, but was only allowed 1 $2.00 coupon per transaction.

Thanks for the heads up everyone!

Don’t forget about the Walgreen’s Easy Saver catalog – there’s a $1.50 coupon for sure deodorant in it. Use 6 of these along w/the mfr coupons and rebate and get paid over $10 after rebate and extra bucks!

I am so excited that they are building our first CVS! I can’t wait until it is done.

I did well at CVS tonight. FYI–In our area, the Sure coupon was a BOGO on a purchase, not a rebate. Here’s my transaction:

2 Kashi cereals 5.00
2 Sure deoderant 5.58
Stridex 4.99
CVS make up remover 2.99
Gold Emblem candy .99
SOBE beverage 1.49

Stridex coupon -1.00
2 Kashi coupons -2.00
CVS coupon -2.00
BOGO coupon for Sure -2.79
ECB’s used -19.49

OOP (inc. tax) 3.24
PLUS ECBs earned 17.49

NM about the Softsoap I see now that it specifies everything but the spa version. I’m also not brave enough to try it either.

In the Cleveland area the CVS towelettes are also $3.49. And the tampons are printing $1 ECB instead of $1.49. It could just have been a fluke on the tampons, but I’m not going to bother worrying about $0.49 especially when I didn’t catch it till I got home. Thought I’d give a heads up though. Also the Spring ECBs are printing out!

Thanks again for all the great ideas

So if Softsoap is b1g1 this week would we get back 4 ECBs? According to the July book Softsoap is giving 2 ECBs.

Thanks to the commenter Lindsay above- I called the number on the back of my extracare card today, and the operator was very nice and said that this is a known problem. I too, will get an extracare buck of $1 which will print on my next transaction (she said to give it about 48 hours to go through the system.) It was quick and easy to call, I got through to someone very quickly. Just press “0″ for an operator once you get to the extracare program and you don’t have to wait through the computer prompt.

The CVS towelettes are $3.49 in my region (Metro Detroit) but are still printing $2.99 ECB. With the $2 coupon–it’s still a great moneymaking deal.

The “20% extra free” size of the Sure Deodorants are good for the ECB deal

The towelettes were near the Olay and Ponds cleansers. At my CVS these are on the wall. There were larger packs for 5.99, but close by are the 15 count packs. I got 2.99 in ECBs for 1 pack!!!

For those still needing help with the $2 skin care coupon, I am able to print them by going to File, Print Preview, 2nd drop down menu change “Shrink to Fit” to 50%, then print. My CVS does not allow me to use more than 1 of these coupons per transaction. Even the friendly cashier that lets my husband get away with anything when I send him didn’t take 2. (Isn’t that funny that my husband has a young, CVS cashier that treats him special! )
