CVS ~ General Discussions ~ Black Friday 2009

I gave the Cetaphil a try on my 1st order to test...I use the stuff anyway and had a $2 cpn from Good Housekeeping. It didn't ring up $3.49 sale (rang reg $4.49)...so they DID adjust the price. But the ECB didn't print

I am pretty sure the $2.00 Cetaphil coupon excludes the bar soap.

I posted this else were but thought I'd post here just in case someone wants or needs an easy and fast Moneymaker. I'm sure there are many other Moneymakers but posting this one might help someone. If you don't need the appliance for yourself get it for a Christmas Gift.

I did pick up a Soliel razor, ear buds, and my big splurge was buying the $99.99 HD LCD 15 inch tv with a $5 off $30 and the rest with GC's I've accumalated over time. I was like why not it's not like it was my cash anyways...lol.

That's it for me this year. I got all the free appliances last year so no need for more. I was just not in the mood for the major power shopping like last year. I just don't have the energy anymore. But there were alot of frees and not bad deals at all at CVS.

Hope everyone had fun shopping!!

What's wrong with that?! Anyone, regardless if they're an employee or not, can shop and put stuff aside to buy until the sale starts... I don't see what's wrong with this?

Whats wrong with that?!
#1. I don't think its appropriate to shop while you being paid to work
#2. If you want the stuff at the prices or deals, you have to put out the effort like everyone else - i.e. waiting in line, checking out at midnight, waking up in the wee morning hours, etc.

You wouldn't expect to enter a CVS at say 4pm, gather up the sale items....then ask CVS to "hold" your cart til you could come back at your convenience - say the next day at 10A or something.

If say that employee had gotten off work at like 9 or 10p and gathered up the items (off the clock) and then hung out there talking to her coworkers til midnight, fine. But the way it actually occurred, no I don't think that is kosher.

I am pretty sure the $2.00 Cetaphil coupon excludes the bar soap.

Poop - I didn't recall it stating any exclusions but I just checked the database and sure enough it says it excluded bars.:sad:

Just grabbed the last crockpot at my store - 5qt crockpot slow cooker for $9.99 after the ECB

They still had lots of the FAECB items that I saw. Our store manager was saying they should have doubled the limits on everything FAECB as they have tons in the back now & in the warehouse.
