CVS Extra Care Bucks print on the bottom of your CVS receipt.

*Request a free CVS card at the check out counter.

*CVS does not accept competitor coupons.


*Always have the cashier scan your CVS card before ringing up items.

*Always hand over your $/$$ CVS coupon first.

*You can use a CVS coupon with a manufacturer coupon.

*You can use two coupons on B1G1 items.

*CVS does offer rainchecks for sale items that are out of stock. Rainchecks do not expire.

*Look for the red CVS price scanners in your local stores. Scan your CVS card and it will print out coupons!


*What are EXTRA CARE BUCKS(ECBs)? “CVS money” printed on the bottom of your receipt. You receive them by purchasing certain products during a promotional period. Only valid at CVS.

*Do ECBs expire? Yes, the expiration date is printed on the Extra Care Buck.

*What can I purchase with ECBs? Anything in the store.

*Is there a limit on how many Extra Care Bucks I can use to pay in one transaction? No.

*What does FREE after Extra Care Bucks(ECBs) mean?
For example, the promo says buy 1 notebook at .99, Get .99 ECBs. You buy 1 notebook for .99. You will pay .99 plus tax out of pocket. However, when your receipt prints you will have a .99 ECB(CVS money) on the bottom. You can use the ECB to purchase anything else in the store before the expiration date. I save mine and use the following week.

I bought Tide for $5.97, I used the $1 off coupon from the Sunday paper and stacked it with the $5 off Toysrus coupon, I came out 3 cents ahead and I got my $1 extra care bucks for buying the Tide!

I made a purchase at CVS yesterday, 5ECBs when you spend $15 on Covergirl, it only showed up as $14 so I didn’t get the points. On my receipt it states Amount Needed to Earn Reward: $1.22. So if I go back and buy more I will get the ECBs? Or does it all need to be purchased at the same time?
