The coupon match-ups for the weekly deals are here and the coupon match-ups for the monthly deals are here.
The following are scenarios for people who are “new” to shopping at CVS or who have very few ECBs to start with: (these are just ideas….you do not have to follow this exact order and you can skip some items if you do not need them or don’t have the coupons that match up with them)
$27.45 in merchandise for $4.97 OOP, $4.99 in ECBs left to spend
Transaction #1:
Buy Renuzit Tri-Scents Starter Kit – $5.49 (this is a monthly deal)
Use $4 manufacturer coupon from 2/22 SS insert (today’s paper)
Spend $1.49 OOP, earn $2 ECB
Transaction #2:
Buy 2 Stayfree pads – $4.49/each
Use BOGO free coupon
Use $2 ECB from Renuzit
Spend $2.49, get $4 ECB
Transaction #3:
Buy Gillette Fusion Gamer – $7.99
Use $4 Gillette Fusion coupon
Use $4 ECB from Stayfree (they will have to adjust it down to $3.99)
Spend $0, get $4 ECB
Transaction #4:
Buy Extreme Energy drink – $4.99 (I’m guessing this coincides with the monthly deal, which is limit 2, so if you’ve already done it, skip this one)
Use $4 ECB from Gillette
Spend $.99, get $4.99 ECB
If you have a $4/20 coupon (from e-mail or CRT):

Use 2 $2 Natural Dentist printables (see monthly deals match ups)
Use $4/20 coupon
Spend $12.47 OOP, earn $8 ECB
Submit MIR – get $10 back (if you have ECBs that you need to “roll” this is a great way to do it and make money back!)
