CVS 101
Learning the CVS ExtraCare Program may seem a little overwhelming at first, but it’s really quite simple when you break it down into the following steps.
This post will just tackle the basics of the program to get you started:
Sign up for your very own ExtraCare Card. This can be done on CVS.com, or you may sign up in a store. Your best bet is to do it in a store so you can begin using your card immediately. If you choose to sign up online, it will take approximately two weeks to receive your card.
Configure your scenarios. You’ll need to pick up a weekly store ad and/or read my website for the weekly scenarios!
Your ultimate goal is to attempt to create transaction scenarios that actually earn you a profit in Extra Care Bucks (aka, ECB’s). You can achieve this by reducing your total amount spent out of pocket (OOP) with CVS dollar off coupons (ex. $3 off a $15 purchase), CVS item coupons, and manufacturer coupons. You can actually “stack” one CVS store coupon and one manufacturer coupon per item, and use both in conjunction with a $/$$ coupon.
A great example of this is would this scenario.
