Hi Mindy,

I am a little confused on this one deal about the hellmann’s, lipton, ragu, and skippy. Can you help me out here. My ad says “spend $10 and get $3extra bucks when you buy any of these products.” Doesn’t that mean that if I buy 2 skippys at $4 and 2 mayos at $6 that I get $3 in bucks back?? And won’t it be better yet for me to use a Hellman and Skippy coupon???

By the way, I love your site!!

Thanks in advance for your help.

I bought the Visine Wipes as part of the J&J $5 ECB WYB $10 deal. Buy 3 Visine Wipes ($4.50 each) and use 3 x $3/1 coupons. Spend $4.50 and earn $5 ECB!!

Pampers are 2 for $20 I believe and then you get $5 ecb back. So it’s like paying $7.50 per pack and you can use coupons to get them cheaper.

I hope Electrasol goes on sale somewhere else soon. CVS is just too far away to have to go back each week and use the ECB’s. I have these coupons burning a hole in my coupon book. :o)

Anyone experienced bad treatment from CVS employees? And do you know the number to reach to call CVS attention on rude workers? I happened to bump same cashier who was rude to me. Before, she was annoyed that I hand the 5$off for 20$ coupon first and then the rest of my coupons. She told me to give all my coupons together next time. Today, when I was doing my deals I asked her if I can do 2 transactions. She said okay and then looked at me and say,”Are you just doing this to get those free items?” (So what?) and when I pay with my ECB and the scanner did not read, she then told me, “next time don’t fold your receipt because the scanner wont read…bla..bla..bla. This old lady cashier is miserable. I wonder how many customers are no longer wanting to shop at that store because of her bad attitude.

Has anyone had success with the electrosol deal in Northern Cali? It is not listed in our local CVS store flyer. Is it a regional sale? Is it worth the effort to give it a try anyway in case it’s an unadvertised sale up here? I’m new to CVSing, any advice welcome.
