Well, it looks like the magic coupon machine at CVS is at it again! I have heard from quite a few of you that the magic coupon machine is currently spitting out $5 off any one Nexxus product coupons! If you’re lucky enough to receive this coupon, you can score shampoo for just $0.29! Here’s how…

Nexxus 5.1 oz shampoo $5.29

Use the $5/1 coupon from the magic coupon machine
Final cost only $0.29!

*Also, reader, Meredith, was able to find a few Nexxus products for under $5, so FREE after the coupon!

(Thanks, Karen, Meredith and all you other readers who emailed!)

    Is there a way to know if a certain store has one of the machines? I don’t want to drive there and they don’t have it.

    • Carie

      Just went to my CVS and they remodeled and now have a machine! But I got the M&M’s and cold medicine one. BOO!

      • Ani

        Carie, use your M&M coupon for one of the bags on clearance….Only tax you pay! lol

      • judy

        that’s the same one i got too:(

  2. cindy

    Oh, I hope I get one!!! I just ran out this morning and I LOVE Nexxus!!!!! I will stop by on my way home and see!!!!!!!!

  3. pamela Anderson

    All CVS stores have a coupon machine. My store in Illinois has two.

  4. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    What are the magic coupon machines??? Is it something that spits from the register when you check out or is it an actual machine that I need to look for?

    • tracy

      Its a big red box near the front of the store. They look like price checkers at other stores.

  5. Lori Hermann

    Mine did not print the Nexus coupon. :o(

    • cindy

      Lori-where do you live??? Sometimes I think the coupons from the mm are regional

      • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

        Mine didn’t either. I live in Nashville, TN. I might try again tomorrow. I absolutelly love Nexxus.

    i went yesterday and got a $1.50 ECB with no strings attached!

    • Sarah

      It might be from your fall spending, you get ECB each quarter depending on how much you spend.

      All of my local CVS stores have the coupon machine, it is generally near the front. Sometimes by the door or the register, other stores have it near the front of an aisle.

    • nikki e

      that may have been your quarterly earnings, perhaps?

    • kim

      that was for your fall spending

  7. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    Yes I would like to know about the magic coupon machine too? What is it and how do we find out if our store has it?

    • Sarah

      I think it usually has a sign that says “coupon center”. It has an area to scan your card for coupons or a bar code to look up a price and there is a screen similar to the scanners at Target. Like I said, I think most stores should have them.

  8. Courtney

    Don’t know that y’all know the answer, but you guys are pretty good! Here it is: When I’ve visited my CVS store lately, their magic machine was ‘out of coupons’. I’ve been a bit to tentative to ask, but is that normal? Can the employees fix it (like maybe it’s out of paper) or is it something bigger?

    • Lisa

      Yep, I’ve had to ask before. Usually the employees just have to insert a new roll of paper. It’s not too big of a deal.

    • Elaine

      I’ve learned to ask. The people at my stores are usually happy to help. Sometimes the machine just needs paper or is jammed and they can quickly fix it. Other times, they will say that they need to have someone come fix it. I’ve also learned that some of the stores have 2 machines and one is still working.

  9. Cindy

    I wonder if conditioner would also be priced $5.29?

  10. CJ

    I never get any good coupons for the coupon machine 🙁

    • Donna Mc.

      Same here… I rarely get any of the good coupons mentioned. Today I just got two sucky coupons, and then the machine said no more coupons today.

  11. Jen

    How do you get coupons? Just by price checking an item?

    • terri

      scan your cvs card

      • Jen

        Thanks!

  12. Jeanni

    My Walgreens had the large bottles of Nexxus Shampoo and conditioner for 3.19 regular 15.99 plus they are buy one get 50%off second this week.

  13. Stacey

    My magic coupon machine never prints out anything good.
    Yesterday I got $1 off CVS brand cold relief and $1 off M & M’s (big bag)

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Same here ………………………….I never use those coupons….such a waste.

    • Cynthia

      me too, (m&m’s and cvs cold) but I did buy about $190 in L’oreal products for $13!

      OH! And don’t forget the $7 in ECBs for 2 (regular price) Revlon tools!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      same here.

  14. GINA

    I am tempted to go and try it. I work right next door to a CVS.

  15. Karen

    I just tried…got the $1 off cvs cold relief and $1 off m & m’s. Always worth the try.

    • Crissy

      This is what I got yesterday too. I did notice a lot of random things for 50-75% off throughout the store though…makeup, moisturizers, nail stuff, body wash, etc. I didn’t wander through the rest of the store b/c I was in a hurry, but I’m sure some good deals could be found with coupons.

  16. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    Remember, when scanning your CVS Card at the machine, to do it several times, until you get the words on the screen, stating “No more coupons until tomorrow!” Sometimes you will only get one or two coupons the first time scanning, but if you stand there and do it again, more come out.

    • Cindy

      Great tip!

  17. Erika Tindall

    Does anyone know if there is a CVS in Oregon….not having any luck finding one with their store locator option on their website….but I can’t imagine there isn’t one in the whole state!

  18. mamabear

    ok i was just there and left my phone in the car and i promise as i was leaving the parking lot i checked my messages ,and got this txt, ( man!)
    well i got the q, but had my mom and kids in the car so i was in a hurry and didnt look down the hair isle… (slaps head) i guess ill make another trip tonight.

    on a side note: i bought 2 revlon foundations on clearance and the 7 ecbs did NOT print out. what am i supposed to do let it slide or call the cs line or go back in store or what? i asked the cashier why it didnt print and she said it must have been because of the 75% markdown idk… do ecb print on clearanced items?

    • Becky

      I just asked the same thing with the ECB on the Revlon & the manager told me they do NOT print with clearanced items… Oh well… I still got some good deals on some makeup..

      • mamabear

        yeah me too! i got 2 foundations, 1 powder, 1 eyeshadow, a shampoo and a green tea for 11. i was thinking i would get the ecbs and bring it down to 4 but its k, i got some good deals…

    • Tracie

      Ha…the same thing happened to me and my Mom…..girl said it was beacuse they were clearanced items.BUT,then she looked thru the ad and said it didn’t specify not clearance items so she gave us each our $7. ECB”S I would use that information to go back in and let them know….must have been a typo they said?Might work out to our advantage!
      Also be sure to log into your online CVS account…I did and had an extra printable $2.00 ECB there!
      Good Luck!

  19. Olivia Smith

    Love Nexxus products- definitely gonna stop by CVS for this one!

  20. Latasha

    I have a $3.00 off any one Nexxus product (excludes 5.1 oz and trial sizes) that I got from a sample awhile back. I may see what other products they have and maybe get an $8 item for free by stacking the two!

  21. Sherri

    Just stopped by to pick up a prescription and received a $3.00 off any Revlon beauty tool. I picked up a $2.99 nail clipper for free. The cashier just adjusted the Q down to $2.99. I can always use an extra pair of clippers around the house. But no Nexxus…

    • Sarah

      Pick up a second one and get the $7 ECB!

  22. Diann

    I just returned from getting some great makeup deals with my daughter and we tried the coupon machine but no Nexxus coupon printed. That was in Pensacola.

    • mouni

      Same here! 🙁

  23. tiffany

  24. Ashley R.

  26. Tracie

    Did anyone do the Excedrin deal at CVS with their free Excedrin coupons? I did !

    • Donna Mc.

      I did it today and paid .26 cents for one 250 ct Extra Strength ($12.29), two 20 ct express gels PM ($4.99 each), and two 8 ct PM (.99 each), and got the $10 EB!!! I used one -5.99 Free Extra Strength, two -3.50 PM, and two -1.00 for any Excedrin, and then used $9.00 in EBs, so basically I got everything for free and made .74 cents more in EBs. 🙂
