CVS for freesies

As you are probably all aware, there is a $5 off $20 CVS coupon in today’s papers:  Here in Chicago it’s in at least the Sun Times and the Tribune, so check your local papers for the full-page ad and buy the cheapest paper (Sun Times is .75 and the Trib is a buck…you do the math).  One thing you probably don’t know is that the register is printing out $5 off $15 purchase coupons on your receipts (for most cards).  The newspaper coupon is good today through Saturday, the 9th.  Here’s some pictures and coupon match-ups.

The Magic Coupon Machine is spitting out $2 off oral care purchases on at least 2/3rds of the cards, so make sure you scan yours.  Buy two Crest mouthwash, two floss and one BIC razor.  Use the $2 CVS coupon, the $5 CVS coupon from today’s paper, two each of floss and mouthwash coupons from near the end of the 6/3 P&G insert (total of $1.50) and the $2 BIC mfr coupon from 5/20 S (back page).  Your high tax total is $16.28.  Use any old ecbs you have laying around.  You will get back $17 in ecbs ($4 floss, $10 mouthwash & $3 BIC).  The Crest and floss deal is limited to TWO per card, but the BIC razor has a ONE card limit.

Next transaction is for one Gillette Fusion razor and cartridge.  Cartridges are $17.79 and razor is $12.99.  Use the BOGO coupon from 6/3 P&G insert and the $5 CVS newspaper coupon.  Your total will be $12.99 so use up any ecbs you have laying around.  You will then get back $10 ecb.  This deal is limited to ONE per card.

If you prefer women’s razors, you could work the above transaction substituting a Venus (Embrace) razor and cartridge.  Use the $5 off $20 (or $15).  Use Venus BOGO coupon from 6/3 P&G insert.  Your totals will be the same as the Fusion.  Again, this deal is limited to ONE per card, so pick your poison.

  1. If you run the Venus razors deal, there’s also a $2.00 Venus coupon that expires 6/30 and was in an insert prior to last weekend. It’s good on razors or refills. You can use it with the BOGO coupon.
