CVS is my
favorite store to grab great beauty deals. If you haven’t already, sign up for
their ExtraCare card. You can swipe it in the front of the store at a kiosk and
get tons of store coupons (that you can combine with manufacturer’s coupons).
CVS will also email you coupons (e.g., $3 off a $15 dollar purchase, 30% off
your regular price purchase) and you can get ExtraCare Bucks—these are
essentially money, just money you can only use at CVS. You get ExtraCare Bucks
by buying certain products (e.g., spend $12 on Revlon products and get $4 in
ExtraCare Bucks back). You can use the ECBs on your next purchase. Also, if you
sign up for CVS’s Beauty Club you get $5 ECBs when you spend $50 on beauty
products. The $50 total is BEFORE coupons! For more information, see my Couponing 101: CVS post.
So sales +
coupons + ECBs make CVS my favorite couponing spot.
I got two
products this week, and they were almost free! The Coupon Machine is giving
everyone a $5 off of $15 cosmetics purchase!
This week,
Maybelline was spend $15 get $5 in ECBs.
What
I got: Maybelline Great Lash Mascara in 120 Blackest Black ($5.99) and
Maybelline Master Conceal by FaceStudio Camouflaging Concealer in 10 Fair.
Breakdown: Before coupons, sales and taxes, my
total would have been $15.48. Coupons
used:
$3 of any $15 purchase CVS coupon
(received in email)
$5 of any $15 cosmetics purchase CVS
coupon (from the Coupon Machine)
(I didn’t know that you could, but
the cashier said you can use both the $15 coupons)
$2 off any Maybelline mascara
(manufacturer’s coupon from coupons.com)
$1 off any Maybelline face product,
concealer, etc. (manufacturer’s coupon from newspaper)
$4 ECBs
I paid
$0.48 (before tax) for a mascara and concealer—a 97% savings!! I also have $7 in ECBs toward my next
purchase (5 ECBs for spending $15 on Maybelline and $2 from my quarterly ECBs
bonus [you get bonus quarterly ECBs depending on how much you spend at CVS).
