Bad and worse news...CVS no ECBs, no internet coupons

For starters, CVS corporate has confirmed that they don't accept IP coupons (and actually, this policy has been in place for the last 6 months), but are now starting to enforce it...A LOT! Unless they are from CVS.com, they will no longer be accepting them.

Furthermore, there will no longer be any ExtraCareBucks. They are moving to a clip-free coupon book...and apparently there is already one out for May (although I have not yet seen it). Rumor has it, there are $270.00 in savings in this book.

First Walgreens, now CVS...I'm about to cry.

Traveling

Hi everyone! I haven't had a chance to get back to all of you individually, but I want you to know I have received your emails about all the fantastic hotel deals going on right now...and I thank you for always forwarding me things that I may have missed. But I just want to mention that I am not going to post any of these deals...for a variety of reasons. But ultimately, if you know me, you know I love to travel...and I am SO particular about the room I stay in. So, I am not saying go out and spend $450 for a room, but at the same time, I can't encourage spending 30 bucks for an overnight stay...been there, done that, ain't doin' it again! :) But again, thank you for everyone who has forwarded the deals my way and hope everyone has safe and happy travels!

LOL! Couponers...read this for a laugh!

I don't mean to make fun of the 'less knowledgeable' about the EasySaver Coupons, but I found this posting and couldn't help but laugh...

Walked into Walgreens zipcode 10901 to get an ice pack.Waiting for a price check I watched a women and her son buy 6 - 24 bottle cases of 16 oz. snapple. When ringing it up I noticed 24 @ 1.19 = 28.56. Clerk pulls out a coupon, scans it -12.00 - MFGC, then proceeds to scan -.55-MFGC 24 times. So, I went and grabbed a case of Peach Iced tea and a case of Kiwi-strawberry - Ice pack ended costing 16.99, with the 48 bottles of 16 oz snapple total came to 23.71 + 8.375 tax = 25.13.There's a big sign by the Snapple advertising at .14 cents per bottle. flavors available were Lemon iced tea, Peach iced tea. Diet iced tea, and the Kiwi Strawberry.Enjoy! - Steve

Anyway, I just posted my CVS trip 'on the way to Kmart' and stopped at CVS on the way home too! :) Anyway, here was my second purchase on my 'other' card...
