    • Janet

      me too!!

  2. April

    Me too!

  3. V.E.

    Is there a way to tell what items are part of an ecb promotion through the coupon machine/ price scanner? or is it just a guess until you get to the cash register?

    • Musk

      Yeah was wondering the same thing.

    • sophie

      online, click on more.

      • mel

        the online myweeklyad, when you select an ecb deal it will show all the included products.

      • Lauren

        Can you provide some more details to help locate this information online? Thank you.

  4. Christina

    Is there a limit of 1 ECB promotion on this deal or could you buy 6 and get 16ECB?

    • Evan

      It’s a limit of 1 per card.

  5. noemi

    I tried this yesterday, didn’t work for me

    • jim beam

      well the specific product mentioned here is listed as a qualifying product within the ad online, so i would follow up with your cvs or customer service if your eb didn’t print noemi

      • sophie

        the 6.5 is listed not the 1 oz.

        • Sarah

          Online if you click more deals w this offer this 1oz shows

        • shopper

          The printed ad states ANY clean and clear, EXCLUDES clearance.

    • jessica

      I believe before today the ecbs were being forced printed but today they were automatically printing

  6. jim beam

    is trial different than travel size for couponing purposes?

  7. AJ

    Went to my 24 hr CVS and it was all gone 🙁

    Too bad you guys didn’t post this on Saturday or Sunday.

  8. Steph

    Finding certain travel sizes at my CVS is usually pretty hard since they carry so little.

  9. Conswalla

    The ECB printed automatically and it’s a limit of 1. They’re in the trial size section at CVS.

  10. Judy

    do deals track? if I buy $20 worth of products in a spend $30 get $10ecb products in one transaction and then $10 in a second transaction would it then print the $10 ECB … or do the items all need to be in one transaction?

    • Heather C

      Yes, they track!

    • Faith

      Yes, . They track on ur card! 🙂

    • Judy

      Thanks ladies! I have two coupons that are $off CVS coupons that say limit one per transaction ($4/$20 and $2/$10 of huggies) so I was hoping that was the case…. yay!

  11. Sarah

    If your store is sold out just get a rain check…

    • Sarah

      My CVS was sold out and they wrote a rain check for these exact ones…works for me! Thanks H2S 😉

  12. mikeB

    doesn’t work on trial.

    • mel

      Did you buy them? ECB printed just fine for me last night.

  13. mummyof4

    Just scored 6….,used hubbys CVS card… Plus got physician formula extra bucks……..

  14. Tobey

    Had them in my michigan store. Thank you!

  15. Jess

    It triggered just fine for me! And I had a $3 off any beauty purchase! Woop woop! Colin, you rock!

  16. Pharmchick

    They only had two at my store… I wish they had one more! I picked up 1 larger one and the Ecb did trigger.

  17. Jen

    I just went and looked at the online ad, and the 1 oz is not listed as part of the deal. Not sure why some people see it, because I don’t. Only the 6.5 oz is listed, and it says “Products starting at $6.49”

    • Emilee

      You have to look at the “other” deals. It’s separate than the regular clean & clear deal

  18. Kelly

    Got mine this morning just fine. Cincinnati Ohio

  19. Shanshan

    Thank you just got my deal!

    • nicolegammeter

      You’re welcome! 🙂

  20. Ash

    Thankyou!!

    • Musk

      Got mine at Woburn MA. No problems. TY

    • Musk

      OT but can I go to target after I purchase a item and use coupons?

      • Barb

        Yes if you go back within 3 days of your purchase they will scan your receipt, scan your coupon and give you cash!

        • Coupon Newbie

          Thank you, Barb. I didn’t know that about target. I learn so much from all of you here. My family is so amazed with all the great deals and freebies I get. They think I’m so awesome. I tell them it’s because I follow all the smart people like you guys on H2S 🙂

        • Musk

          Thanks Barb. My cashier refused to take the TENA CVS coupons. She said even though it says manufacturer coupon the money will go to CVS.

          • dropofrain

            Target coupon policy states that they will accept manufacturers coupons even if it says Redeemable at CVS and their store logo. Its posted on their website in FA Q section

  21. Christina

    None left in either of the stores in my town… So frustrating!

  22. Jesse

    Does this end Saturday?

    • nicolegammeter

      Yep! 🙂

  23. Nikole

    Got mine no problems! 🙂 Texas

  24. Erin

    Interestingly enough, these were gone at three stores, two that tend to be non-couponing. I suspect corporate had them pulled from the shelf.

    • mel

      It’s listed online. If corp wanted the deal pulled, they would take it out of the system to not print the ecb, not pull product from the shelf. Drug stores don’t have massive qty of stock to begin with. When I went yesterday, there were 6 in the bin, enough for 2 people to do a deal. There are lots of blogs besides H2S that have it posted, and several that had this deal posted the beginning of the wk. I bought them yesterday long before the deal was posted here. I know of people that will hit
      Every.Single.CVS store in their area to hunt down a deal, so even if your store is thought of as being a non-couponing, doesn’t mean the hounds didn’t hit yours!

      • Erin

        The trial/travel bins are always well stocked, but the Clean and Clear bins were empty. Since it is an “official” deal insomuch as it is listed online–but nowhere else–I figure they won’t officially kill it but just remove the product til the sale is over. Most people won’t ask for a raincheck since it is only listed online and many will buy something else, so CVS isn’t really losing much. The DM in our area isn’t particularly customer focused, so I wouldn’t put it past her. Luckily, there is a great manager nearby who will write a raincheck based on online deals when other stores will not.

        • shopper

          Printed ad actually states ANY, and only excludes clearance…nothing about the 1 oz.

          There are shelf clearers, though, so that may be your store issue.

      • Megan

        Most stores will pull the product from the shelves until the sale ends. There was a deal like this one time and I got there one morning to buy the product. I had the product in my hand and when I got to the register the lady was trying to find them. She told me she could not sell them to me. Yes I do believe that most stores will pull the product if corporate tells them too.

        • mel

          My friend works at CVS and she said Corp would never tell them to pull a product for a deal, unless its a recalled item. Some managers (even cashiers) get it in their head that something is wrong when low priced items trigger ECBs, and they will pull the product themselves. But they can get in big trouble, esp if there is a surprise DM visit.

  25. Linda

    Just got mine in Michigan!

  26. Leo

    Where did you guys find this product in CVS?
    Is it next to other clean clear products ?

    • mel

      It was in the trial/travel section bins.

  27. Migdalia

    Just checked online and this product is indeed included.I didnt have time to shop today.Im hoping to find them tomorrow otherwise I will get a rain check

  28. Karla

    Sold out for me this morning. I didnt bother asking for raincheck.
    Was in travel section.

  29. Cari

    Thanks so much! These are great for traveling 😉

    • nicolegammeter

      You’re so welcome, Cari! 🙂

  30. Katie

    I just went to get this deal at my local CVS and neither one of the 2 CVS stores I went to had them 🙁 I checked in both of the trail/travel sections in the stores…bummer 🙁

  31. Jamie

    My nearest cvs was cleaned out. I dont know how people can clear them out since the deal is limited to one per card.

    • Maureen

      make sure to do a rain check!

      • mel

        Those with multiple cards.

      • awreecoupons

        Tried to do a raincheck and manager said nope. Even though i showed him the deal was for 1oz. He insisted the deal was online only. The 1oz is in stores only 😐

  32. Maureen

    Just got this deal! AWESOME! Thank you for sharing!!!

  33. C

    My CVS were completely out. I ended up buying 3 full size products for $7.29 each. I had a $5 off $15 CVS coupon and there were $1 prelude coupons so I ended up paying only $1.96 for each item after the $8 ecb. Great deal in my opinion since I needed makeup removers 😄. My CVS is always out of stock of items whenever there is a hot deal on anything so I expected not to find the travel size cleansers.

    • C

      $1 peelies coupons 😄

  34. Joann

    Unrelated but didn’t know where to comment. If there is a bogo sale can I use a $1 off 2 coupon? Just want to be sure. Thank you.

    • Dayna

      Yep! CVS allows coupons on a free time.

      • Dayna

        Er… that’s “free item” not free time!!

        • Joann

          Okay. Cool. Thanks.

  35. Dayna

    It worked for me! I’m in Michigan. At first I thought I wouldn’t able to do the deal since there were only 2 left and I didn’t feel like buying 1 full size product. I asked the cashier if they happened to have any more and she brought out a basket and said a lady came yesterday and bought 6 of them and then came back and returned them all. I am assuming she kept her ecbs (prolly used 2 cards) and got her money back……
    Anyway, I picked up one of the returns since they all looked untouched and the $8 ecb printed. 🙂

    • sue

      where are you in Michigan?

  36. Jennifer

    Lincoln,Nebraska….one store was out the other wasnt. Deal worked for me and I didnt clear the shelf! Any lincoln couponers it was the cvs on 70th & O Streets!!!

  37. BAXTER

    I was planning to go to cvs today to grab my deals, but I’m currently laying on my bathroom floor sick:( Thankfully, my sweet mom and sister went to get me rain checks! Thanks for posting:)

  38. KCouponista

    Thanks for posting Collin! Both of my local CVS’s were sold out. I got my rainchecks though. The manager was very surprised when I told him that the ECB amount was $8 but he looked in the flyer and saw that I was right and didn’t question me anymore.

    • awreecoupons

      lucky duck. the manager at my store had a fit over this deal. said it must have been an online only deal and that he would not offer the rain check.
      i showed him that the deal was for the 1 oz which isnt even available for purchase online. still a no go. :c

  39. Kate

    my cvs post the sign right on the bin. it said not qualify for EB.:(

  40. laura

    Worked for me in Columbus, Ohio. Thank you!

  41. kim

    Also double check your stores……some have 2 travel size sections, one near dental, and the other no telling…..i found them across the store, from the regular items

  42. Linda

    Worked Maryland eastern shore. They had 3 left in the bin. Thank you for posting!

    • KCouponista

      Lol Linda, you probably got the last 3 right before I went. Just kidding…I know the Eastern Shore is huge

  43. Mickey

    Why the cvs people don’t suggest you a rain check ?

  44. Tiffany

    I got 6 tonight and ECB’s printed both times. 3 for me and 3 for my friend on her card. i was excited and surprised they had several available.

  45. Joy

    I had to go to a few Cvs stores but 1 x 1 I got the deal. 8 extra bucks us 5 beauty club! Thanks

  46. Kris10LY

    I went to the CVS in Campbell, California and the store would not write me a rain check 🙁

  47. Mandy
