The Thermacare coupons do not say anything about size restrictions. I used the coupons today for the single pack and they went through fine.

[Becky (Nickels-n-Dimes)]

Thanks for the link Crystal! Happy Father's Day to your hubby!

[beth]

Thanks for all the great deals this week. It was not advertised,but the Always Infinity 28 count pads scan $4.99. The June P&G has a $4Q for this size in it. Hope this helps someone:)

[Val in MD]

Always Infinity pads are a smoking deal this week! The big boxes (reg. $10.XX) are $4.99. The P&G Qs are $4/1 for this size box! The small boxes are $5.49, and are not part of the deal, or valid for the coupon. (thanks to didie at WeUseCoupons.com for this tip)

[Rajeev Singh]

Very helpful. Thanks for sharing..I am first time visitor here..loved it..will be coming for more ..:)

[Janna]

so I was checking my extracare balance today and it says that 2% of my 2009 spending will be redeemable in stores or online July 1st. what does that mean? Do I have to go in the store ON July 1st and buy something, scan my card, or what? Do EB print out or coupons? I'm confused.

[Frugal Friend]

I just did my CVS Shopping for this week. My store was well stocked with Soyjoy. Does anyone else love these? I sure do. Last time I got 5 free boxes. Glad they are back again for free!

[Lisa]

I went to my local CVS today and they had a few of the Almay foundation's for $3.50 marked down from $13.99. They were in the clearance baskets in the back of the store. And they are still generating the $10 ECB's. After using the $1 off coupon, I paid $2.50 OOP for a $7.50 profit.

[Meredith]

Bought 20 bars used a 4/20 - Two $2 of 10 bars paid 12 in ECB and got $20 ECB backs- $0 oop

Thanks for the idea!

[Honey]

I think the haircolor is also a good deal if you got the $5 off coupons in this Sunday's paper for Perfect 10. It's $10 after ecbs and $5 after coupon...

[deseray]

I tried the soyjoy deal at my cvs this evening. The cashier informed me that there was a limit of 5, meaning a total of 5 bars all together.I told her that I interpreted it to mean 5 groups of 4 bars, she called the manager, who reiterated what she said. So, it did not work for me at all.

[Jennifer]

Check your CVS CRT coupons for SoyJoy coupons. I had one for $2 off 5. Since CVS lets you stack a manufacturer's coupon with a CRT coupon, I was able to get $3 off 5 bars. I paid $2 for 5 of them and got back $4.

[Jennifer]

There is also a rebate form inside the Freestyle meter that I got today. Can I get that back even if I used a coupon? My out-of-pocket for the day's trip was $11.00.

[Amy W]

thanks for sharing!

I ROCKED that SoyJoy deal today!
Bought 20
had 5 b1g1
had 2 $2 off 10
and a $2 / 5 CRT !!!
I also got an email for $3/$15 for the weekend
Total $20
less b1g1 - $5
less 2 x $2/10
less $2 CRT
less $3 crt
- $3 ECBs
paid the remainig $3 on a giftcard and walked out with $20 in ECBS!!!

I know that is a HUGE EC but I will use it on diapers or pullups. or maybe something fun!

Thanks for always sharing the deals!
You are such a blessing!

The Thermaheat $1 coupons worked just fine today!

[Amina]

Yes, the Thermacare coupon from RP is $1/1 any, so it should work fine on the 1-count.

If you don't have the insert Q, you can sign up for a printable $1/1 from Thermacare here: https://www.wyethallbrands.com/coupon_registration.aspx?OfferNumber=saKzhet5cggonIM2PrhofA==

[Tracy]

Is the Mitchem $1.99 or $2.99? My ad states $2.99 ~ Am I missing something?

[Traci]

My store was out of Soy Joy bars on Tuesday, but I did find some spices on clearance for 49 cents. Great add-on idea if you need an inexpensive filler to use your ECBs. They had about 8 varieties on sale - thyme, whole peppercorns, bay leaves, garlic salt, seasoned salt and a few more I can't remember.

[Jennifer]

I found another great deal at our CVS. THey had Cottonelle toilet paper 12 ct. on sale for $5. And there are $1 coupons in the May and June (posibbly even July?) AllYou magazines, making it $4!!

[LilKim]

found another deal at our CVS. I found in the "clip free coupon book" ad that said "$1 off ANY softlips" Our softlips honeydew flavor was on clearance for 75% off = $1.00. They rang them up, and after the cashier and manager reviewed the clip-free book, gave em to me for free! It was a good deal day. I got the SoyJoys (20 of them) for $10 ECB ( I had 10 BOGO coupons) - and got back $20 ECB. Yay!

[LilKim]

Deseray - As far as the cashier/manager saying the limit was 5 bars total - the CVS computers will automatically limit you to the correct # of "deals" (ie if you got more than the deal limit, you wouldn't get ECBs) - so you should just go ahead and get the 5 deals, (20 bars) since that is what is advertised. If you don't get the ECB's, call the CVS line 1800-SHOP CVS, and use the ECB option. They will credit your account after verifying your purchase (keep your receipt). I've had to do this twice, but the ppl at the corporate number have always been friendly. HTH
