Coupon Quick Tip - Great for Cold and Allergy Peeps!

So I said I would update my blog with some coupon quick tips - so here's my first one for CVS.  It is a great way to stock up on your cold and allergy medicines!

Zyrtec 5 ct -- $5.99 BUT you get  $5.99 Extra Bucks back when you use your CVS ExtraCare card!!

Theraflu -- on sale for $4.77 and get $3 Extra Bucks when you purchase two.

Okay, so here's a good scenario  for you to use to start earning your EBs and stocking up on your own!

You'll want to do 2 different transactions. 

Transaction 1:
Zyrtec -- you'll pay $5.99 but earn the 5.99 EB you can use on your next purchase.

Transaction 2:
Buy 2 Theraflu for $9.54.  Then, I'd stack 2 $2 off coupons you can print from Theraflu's website -- just click the savings tab at the top to get your printable coupons.  So, that will bring your total down to $5.54+tax.  Next, top if off with your $5.99 EB from your first transaction making this purchase completely free!  Plus you'll earn $3 EB to save for next week!
**Note that you may want to throw in a clearance candy or something around 55 cents so you can use the full amount of your $5.99 EB, otherwise it will only be used for the $5.54 total, you can't apply EB to tax.  It's your preference!

So you get about $16.00 worth of cold and allergy medicine for about $5.99 plus the $3 EB you earned so really you pay about $2.99 for all 3 of these products!




Be on the lookout for my Walgreens trip update -- they are having a great 5 day sale this week!! 


Happy Savings! :)
