I ♥ CVS Double Bucks
I ♥ CVS Extra Care Bucks! By checking the weekly CVS circular and combining Extra Care Bucks (ECB) deals, ECB earnings and coupons, I save LOTS of money on everyday items. (In fact, if you are paying more than $.99 for toothpaste, I promise you pay too much – I usually get mine for $0 – $.99!)
To make ECB even better, CVS is running a double bucks program. The I ♥ My Double Bucks program runs January 17 – March 10, 2010. To earn DOUBLE ECBs on your prescriptions and CVS brand items go here to register your CVS card. (You have to have a CVS card to earn EBC – if you don’t have one, get one. It is free! Sign up in-store. )
I ♥ My Double Bucks program details:
4% BACK ON CVS/PHARMACY BRAND ITEMS — Instead of earning 2% back on CVS brand items, your earnings will Double to 4% back.
$2 EXTRA BUCKS FOR EVERY 2 PRESCRIPTIONS PURCHASED — Instead of earning $1 Extra Buck for every 2 prescriptions, your earnings will Double to $2 Extra Bucks for every 2 prescriptions purchased.
CVS’s Reusable Bag Program – Earn $1 Every 4th Visit
I am so excited about CVS’s new program to encourage people to use reusable bags. Not only will you earn ECBs by participating, but every time someone participates bags will be saved from the landfill and energy and resources will be saved because the plastic bag won’t have to be made in the first place.
So, here is the skinny! Purchase a “Greenbagtag” at any CVS (mine just got these tags in this week!). The tags cost $.99, which you will earn back in 4 visits!!! Then attach the tag to your favorite reusable bag, so you will have it with you every time you shop. When you check out, make sure the cashier scans your ExtraCare Card and your Greenbagtag. Every 4th visit $1 ECB will print on your receipt to use at your next visit!
Here are a couple more things to love about the program: tag made with corn-based material, an annually renewable resource, Lanyard made from 100% recycled silicone, Card made from 100% recycled paper.
CVS and Target have programs now that offer you cash back for using reusable bags, who is next? In the mean time, use your reusable shopping bags everywhere you go!!!
