(Thanks for the heads up, Don’t Make Me Nuts!)
Do we have to make the $30 purchase all at once or does CVS track it?
They usually track it.
THANKS ! I loved it when they did the $10 gas card promotions through the summer. It really helped us out on our family vacation at the end of the summer with gas prices being so high!
I was waiting to see if some deals scenarios would post. Thanks Collin. I also wondered if this was an all purchases need to be one transaction deal too. So I hope it can be tracked. I have a $5 beauty bucks coming due to print soon.
Any idea what the qualifying items might be? This could be a blessing with the holidays quickly approaching 🙂
SimplyCVS.com has next weeks ad scanned on her site..starting 10/16. You can check items there.
Thanks! I want to see what else I can buy; not too interested in the items listed here.
so total doesnt have to be 30 after using coupons and still get gc?
no its $30 before coupons (both mgf and cvs coupons) 🙂
I love getting the scernarios, but it’s rare when I can actually do them because they just don’t stock more than 3-4 of the same item. 🙁
I know – I saw the scenarios of *SIX* detergents and knew immediately I would have to pass!
I’m wondering if I can buy up $30 in Venus, Olay, Secret, Cover Girl, Clairol, Pantene, Safeguard, and Ivory participating products and by then, I will have enough (at least $50) to send off for the P&G $10 mail in rebate. Would that work, I’m still new to couponing..
this is separate from the p&g promo and only certain products are included, the gift card will be given to you at the check out for the CVS deal.
You can always see the weeks ahead posted on iheartcvs.com! I don’t eat any of the food items, so this is the transaction I’m planning on doing!
2 Colgate Total Toothpastes 1.99ea
2 Jumbo Pack Pampers diapers 8.99ea
1 Wisk 4.99
1 Charmin Freshmates 2.50
1 Puffs $1.50
=30.95
Use 2 $0.75 off colgate coupons from 10/2 ss
Use 1.50 off 2 coupon Pampers coupons from 10/2pg (anyone know of any other coupons for pampers??)
Use Charmin $0.25 coupon from 10/2pg
Use wisk $2 off from 10/16
I also got a CVS Colgate coupon for 1.50 off 2
And a CVS $3 off $10 baby purchase coupon
Not to shabby considering I also have a few ecb’s to use as well 🙂
I am glad they are doing this again. I collected about $200 in gas cards this summer and put them aside “just incase” we needed gas for a potential hurricane. We got a scare… used $120 to get the emergency gas, so glad I had the gift cards! Still have $80 for our holiday trips. If you follow Collin’s scenarios and get what you can use it is really, really worth it! 🙂

I’m wondering if we’ll be able to use the “free gift card” on CVS gift cards??
I know the savings is pre-CVS/MFG coupons. Do you know if the saving has to be before ECB? My hubby just had an issue with the clerk that said it had to be before ECB.
Our total was $56 before ECB and after was less than $30. So we had to purchase more items. But when we looked at the Gift Card receipt it said we had only $4 to go until the next gift card.
