So, I'm paying $2.75 more for 3 bars "on sale" than regular price? + getting a $5 ECB? (yeah, I know, most of the folks count the ECB as part of the cost. I do it as a reduction of my next purchase ... helps me keep my OOP straight!)

Maybe I'll understand it better after I get some sleep!

I don't know where the .75 price comes from. CVS regular price is 1.99.
I checked the HT Express lane price and they are 1.89.

I used ECBs to pay the for the first 3, and didn't pay a cent for 30 bars, picking up a few here, and a few there. I was surprised that every store was very well stocked - they don't seem to be disappearing off the shelves like so many things do - even SoyJoy disappears more quickly, and these have to be better than SoyJoy!

This the deal page 16 of Dec. Monthly has Pro Max Bars get $5 ecb's wyb 3 bars. Well they are also on sale 3/$5 so yup!

you got it they are FREE!! Woo Hoo! and the limit is 5

Does this mean I can get a total of 15 bars, or does this mean 5 bars total when it says limit is 5. I get so confused on the limit thing....Sorry.

Thanks!

couldn't find these at my store - were they with the regular rolaids? They had a 6 count, but not 12. :(

They weren't at my first store, but the next one had them on the same shelf as the 6ct but over about 5 packages

I've never seen them anywhere near that cheap. The normal price is a little under $2 each.

What flavors did they try? I got the cookies n cream and double fudge Brownie. I hadn't tried them yet but my son said he liked them and to get more. But he will eat just about anything too though. He's 20 years old.

Thanks!

Means you can get a total of 15 bars.
For each 3 you buy for $5 , you get $5 back ( can do the deal 5 times )
