This was at the bottom of an email... anyone know anything about it.

It says see store for details. Do we need to get a coupon to scan???

i don't think you need a coupon

it's not as it sounds.

It's double the amount of your Quaterly ecb's.

Only time you get quaterly ECB"s is when you spend a LOT LOT LOT LOT of money OOP which defeats the purpose kwim?

My grandparents on my moms side spend a TON of money at cvs, They also waste their ecb's so instead of them going to waste i always end up with their quarterly spending. So i'm excited! LOL!




To break it down further

You get 2% back of what you spend OOP (excluding qx's i'm pretty sure)

So if you spend, $100 in the quater instead of getting 2% back, you'll get 4% back (which instead of $2 you'd get $4)

So really, you don't WANT to get a quartley ecb.

I feel GREAT when i don't get a quarterly ecb. it means i've spend hardly any OOP at the store!! :)

There's supposed to be a coupon in the 1/17 ad to scan for the double rx's & quarterly ecbs.

I knew it was just the quarterly ECBs but in the past you needed to scan a coupon for it to start doubling (or tripling) them

Yep, another gimmick to get people to spend more on the store brand
