CVS National Ad Week of September 14

After such a great week at CVS last week this week looks kind of slim. Remember, these are the National Ad Deals. The Test Markets (including Metro Atlanta) may not have the same sales.

ECB Deals:

Excedrin Express Gels $3.99 Get $3.99 in ECBs Limit 1
FREE after ECBs
It appears that the coupon is only for Excedrine Migraine, but you can check here for Excedrin coupons.

Aleve D $3.99 Get $3 ECBs Limit 1
Use $1/1 printable coupon
FREE after ECBs and coupon; however, I only recommend getting this if your family will use it because of the legal restrictions placed on this product.

Non ECB Deals:

Revlon BOGO starting at $3.49
Less expensive items will be FREE if you use 2 $2/1 coupons (7/20 S or 8/24 S)

Revlon Beauty Tools Buy One Get One 50% starting at $1.29
Less expensive items (emery boards and nail clippers) will be FREE or cheap after 2 $1/1 coupons (5/18 S2 or 9/14 S)

Other ECB Deals - Special Situations:

Only a deal if you have not done this rebate:
Just for Men $7.99 Get $2 ECBs Limit 1
Use $2/1 Printable coupon
Request rebate of $7.99 (currently 2 available for different products)
Profit of $4 after ECBs, Coupons, and Rebate
Details and links for coupons and rebates can be found here. If you have not done either one start with the one that expires December 2008. The second rebate expires December 2009 and we are likely to see more deals on this product in the future.

Reader Request:

The following is not a hot deal for most bargain hunters, but I had a request to look for deals on toothbrushes. Coupon shoppers can regularly get adult toothbrushes for free and sometimes even get paid to take them off of the shelf, but toothbrushes for children are much harder to find for free/cheap. However, most dentists will give your child a toothbrush when they go for a cleaning so be sure to ask. The dentist office is also a great place to look for coupons.

GUM Toothbrushes Twin Pack (picture shows Crayola toothbrushes) 2/$5
Get $1 ECB when you buy 2 Limit 5 offers (10 packages, 20 toothbrushes)
Use 2 .75/1 GUM (6/29 RP or 8/3 RP)
Final Cost after Coupons and ECBs $2.50 for 4 toothbrushes = .63/each

CVS Deals Week of August 31 in Most Areas

The Metro Atlanta area is not part of the test market so our sales ad will start on Sunday. However, I decided to list the CVS deals early so that the areas that are in the test market can have them for their ad week beginning on Friday.

Here is what I found to be the best deals for the week:

Covergirl Wetslicks $5.99
Free after $5.99 ECBs without coupons
Limit 1 Deal
Use coupons to sweeten the deal.
Current $1/1 coupon expires 8/31, but ad shows new coupons to come out on 8/31.
Choice of coupons on this
Use $1/1 Covergirl and earn $1 ECB
OR
Use BOGO Covergirl Lip Product and get 2 for free.
Readers, please comment or e-mail me if you find the limit on this deal is higher than the printed limit of 1. Recently, some of the CVS limits have been different than what is listed in the ad. If it is that would be a GREAT deal!

Accu-Check Monitor $9.99
Free after $9.99 ECBs - No coupons needed
Limit 1 Deal
Roll your ECBs and donate this item. As mentioned in a previous post, sample test strips are not included with this meter. :(

Colgate Total Advanced Clean

Limit 2 Deals
Use $1.50 coupon for Colgate Total Advanced Whitening
Earn .50 ECBs when you use the coupon.

Suave Body Wash
