It’s not in the ad in SoCal, but the ECBs were printing on Wednesday. I got two, and my receipt shows I can get at least one more. The girl at the photo counter didn’t know anything about it, but she managed to dig up some flyer that mentioned it and was super nice about it.

Just caught the last post and wanted to let you know about my success yesterday at a CVS in southern Indiana. The manager let me know that I could get 5 and it was his suggestion to buy them one at a time. He let me roll my ECBs from one purchase to the next and put my name on a list to do the books at a future time. In the end, I paid around $8 out of pocket and got 5 books and $7.99 in ECBs!!! It printed an ECB each time, although I was sure it wouldn’t work!! It was a GREAT deal because I thought I was going to have to pay $40 out of pocket!

I was wondering about preparing on-line as well. I am in Las Vegas and we don’t have the deal, But, my hubby is in New Orleans working and they have it there. There is no way that I am going to convince him to create the books by himself! If oyu can’t on-line then I guess the idea of prepaying will work. Also, because my ecbs are here in LV from prior weeks, I would like to take advantage of all 5, yet not pay sooo much out of pocket. Has anyone had any luck with rolling ECBs and will the cashier let you do that ring them all prepaid up seperately? Thanks for the advice, I can just see something going wrong and him quitting on me, but I WANT those books!!!!

I commented earlier but I’m back to confirm that in Georgia the limit is definitely 5. I made my five today with no problems – well, no ECB problems. We won’t talk about the mistakes in stapling or the crashing computer or the cashier miscounting…in the end I wound up with five books and $7.99 in ECBs. (I bought them all one at a time, used the $7.99 that printed out to buy the next one, and it was zero OOP each time.)

I lived in Arlington, TX.
CVS even can’t print the correct receipt. Price for 6 x 8 is $9.99. So, the cashier picked 5x 7 photo book as my sales item. It’s $7.99. After I show the ad, he printing me one $8 extra bucks. So, I don’t know any other store can let me do 6X8 again… Anyone has the same problem? I wasted my 3 hours there. They even don’t know how to staple the book. They damaged the photos with the staplers and I have to wait for reprint. I just bring home pieces of photos.

Im in central Pa and it’s a limit of 5 in our stores, although the managers had no idea what the limit was. There were no signs anywhere. So far I’ve got 7 using mine and my grandmothers cards.

GRR I have called multiple locations in my area, they will only tell me what the flyer says. I cant even get a manager who even knows what I am talking about. I guess I will just go in and take my chances.

I went to CVS here in Madison, TN, today and the cashier told me it was a limit of 5 this week! I’m thinking this would be great for Christmas presents for our family

I asked at my local (NO Cal) store and the lady didn’t even know what I was talking about. The books were not in the ad.
I’ll try another store later.

To cjs:

ECB’s are Extra Care Bucks, which can be used like cash on future transactions at CVS. (EB’s would be Extra Bucks, a shortened form of ECB’s). They are awesome!!
