if i spend $11 more dollars will i get my other 10 ebcs..

Yes. You need to spend one more dollar to get the 2nd ECB and if you then spend another 20, you will get the 3rd ECB. If you do it all in one transaction (buy $21), you should have a $20 ECB print out.

Generally not. :frown: The glucose monitor folks are extremely picky and will check your receipt for large coupon amounts. In any case, they will only rebate you the amount you actually paid OOP. That's been my experience, at least.

I went to both of my CVS stores and neither one sold the Advil PM 8 count (like the ad says) I asked the manager at the second store and he just said "sorry". Oh well DH won't sleep good after all!!

As soon as I walk in on Saturday they will let me know if the next week's ad has been activated yet. If your store has the coupon printer machine - it is also a price scanner. If I have any question as to how it will ring up - I always scan the item there.

The only time you need to be careful shopping on Saturday is on the following scenarios:

1. The item that you are shopping for is already advertised in the current week. AS AN EXAMPLE ONLY - let's say that the BIC razors were b1g1 this week. I would have waited until Sunday to get the razors as the system will override itself and give you the b1g1 price and NO ECBs.

2. The item is part of a 2 or 3 day sale. For example the Pumpkin Pails that were Free after ECBs. I waited until Sunday - as the system is specifically coded to print the ECBs based on the sales date.

Okay - now for my updates....My Bic razors were $5.99 (I am located in Manchester, NH) - so not a MM but FREE is good! We forget that sometimes since we are such BARGAIN shoppers!!! My store only had 3 left so these are going fast.

I bought 2 Advils and used two $1.00 Qs. The 2nd Q beeped and had to be adjusted to $0.98. I was surprised that it beeped for $0.02 but since it did I would not plan on any overage from these in your scenarios. Also - these were located near the registers at my store rather than the medicine section - so keep a look out if you can't find them.

I just happen to get one of the misprint $2/2 Gold Emblem Candy CRT this week. I had the cashier scan this Q first and it only deducted $1.00. Of course they modified it - but just keep an eye out when checking out!

Don't forget to look for the CVS diabetic book near the pharmacy. I scored a couple of these and will be using at least the J&J First Aid Q on the First Aid to Go item each time I shop.

HTH!!!!!

i Guess I will just save my Q for a ECB deal!

I printed out the $1 off any Advil and the $2 off any Advil PM. The $1 scanned okay but the $2 beeped and they would not take it at all. We had plenty of overage but no dice.
