Are you new to CVS? You’ll want to read up on CVS 101 to learn how to make the most of your Extra Care Bucks. You should also review, and print, the CVS Coupon Policy and keep it with you.

First of all, before you look through the list, you will notice a brand new feature here on Penny Pinchin’ Mom — a printable shopping list! You will see a box next to each matchup. If you want to print out the deal (including coupon information), just click the box next to the item. Then, scroll down to Print My List. A new window will come up and then you can confirm you’re going to print what you want and click the final print button. Hopefully this helps you from having to copy and paste so much and remember those deals when you shop!

Be sure that you get your extra savings coupons before you shop:

$3/$15 cosmetics purchase by scanning your card at the kiosk
$4/$20 purchase by signing up here for emails
$5/$15 purchase by printing form and saying hello at the minute clinic

by Tracie on October 30, 2010 · 1 comment

I’ve talked about Recycle Bank before, but it is such a great program, that it is worth mentioning – in case you haven’t yet signed up! Here’s how it works:

1. Sign up at Recycle Bank. When you do, register without activating your account. This should credit your account with 25 points.

2. Go into your account and you will see a link to join the conversation about reusing — through Ebay. Click this link and follow the prompts to get a quick 50 points in your account.

3. Head on over to retailmenot.com and get a code to credit your account with a quick 15 points.

4. Enter points code under points partner nature made: 031604025496 5 times to you’ll add another 50 points.

Once your account has been credited with your points, sign in. Select GET REWARDS from the top of the screen. Just look through the list and you will find lots of great coupon offers. They have great coupons for Huggies, Clorox products and more — and higher value that you can normally find in the newspaper or on-line! They now even offer magazine subscriptions — so you can pick up Oprah, Redbook or even others possibly for FREE!

Be sure to read up on different ways you can increase your points by doing things to help the environment by recycling. Plus – you can get rewarded in the process!
