While the 20 percent coupon can be used beginning Sunday on these deal, the coupon expires on Sunday. But if you're in need of any of these products, it would be worth your while to make a trip to CVS part of your Siunday plans.




A CVS/SavingStar deal not to Snicker at plus free Easter candy next week

Today's SavingStar Friday Freebie deal is for a free Snickers bar or Snickers brand Peanut Squared Bar.

The deal is good until Sunday, and if you wait until Sunday, you can come very close to doubling the deal of you buy the Peanut Squared Bar. Coupons.com has a $.75/2 coupon for the Peanut Squared Bars. Beginning Sunday, all Mars brand chocolate singles or M&Ms Mega are 77 cents each. Therefore, by using the coupon and combining it with the SavingStar deal, you can get two of the Snickers Peanut Squared bars for 2 cents after receiving the money back from SavingStar.

If you would rather buy a different variety of Snickers or just one Peanut Butter Squared bar, this deal can be a money maker if you buy just one bar before Sunday and if you got a 20 percent off coupon on all regular priced items coupon in the mail.

Another alternative on the Snickers deal is to pair the free one from the SavingStar deal with a Buy 2, Get 1 Free coupon  from SmartSource.com. Then it becomes a Buy 2, Get 1 Free deal.

For all of the M&Ms fans like me who would like to get more M&Ms for their money when they are on sale next week, there also is a M&Ms Buy 2, Get 1 Free coupon on SmartSource.com.

Additionally, there are two free after extrabucks rewards deals on Easter candy week. Single serving sizes of Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs; Cadbury Single Eggs or single serving Mini Eggs; or Hershey's single serving Eggs or Bunnies are on sale for 87 cents and are free after 87 cents in extrabucks rewards. Gold Emblem 12-13 oz. bags of Jelly Beans, on sale for 99 cents beginning Sunday, also are free after 99 cents in extrabucks rewards.

CVS also will have two other extrabucks rewards deals on Easter candy starting Sunday. Easter M&M's 9.9-12.6 oz. will be on sale for 4/$12 next week with $4 extrabucks rewards on the purchase of four bags. There is a $1/2 coupon on Coupons.com to make the deal even better. The other Easter candy deal is a $1 extrabucks rewards deal on Hershey's Easter Kisses, Eggs, Miniatures or Cadbury Mini Eggs 7.1-10 oz., which will be on sale for 2/$5.

That's all for the time being. Will now start on a separate post on how to use the 20 percent coupon CVS sent out in the mail with some extrabucks rewards deals on beauty products. Hope to have that done tomorrow or sooner.

Good CVS deals come to those who wait

As I've said before, Thursday is a pivotal day when it comes to plotting out CVS deals.

CVS sends out coupons to use over the weekend on Thursday. In my email today was a 20 percent off coupon on all regularly priced items! AND that coupon can be used on any extrabucks rewards deal with regularly priced items. AND it also can be used with the $4 off of a $12 or more cosmetics purchase coupon that I (and hopefully everybody else) got from the ExtraCare Coupon Center. Since all of the cosmetics extrabucks rewards deals feature regularly priced items this week, the coupon can be used on any of them as long as $12 is spent.

In review, those deals are:

Buy $15, Get $5 extrabucks rewards on any L'Oreal cosmetics
Buy 1, Get $3 extrabucks rewards on the purchase of one Sally Hansen Salon Effects, Complete or Triple Shine (probably have to buy more than one to use the $4 off $12 cosmetics coupon.)
Buy $10, Get $3 extrabucks rewards on Nuance Salma Hayek Cosmetics, Hair, Body or Facial Care (Have to buy all cosmetics and spend $12.)

However, the cosmetics coupon is good until Sunday, and there will be three cosmetics extrabucks rewards deals beginning on Sunday. They are:

Buy $10, Get $3 extrabucks rewards on Maybelline lip, eye, or nail. (GOOD NEWS. This deal can be repeated TWICE. So if you spend $20 or over, you can use the $4 coupon, save 20 percent, AND get $6 in extrabucks rewards)
Buy $10, Get $3 extrabucks rewards on  ALL Covergirl cosmetics (Have to buy all cosmetics and spend $12.)
Buy $20, Get $7 extrabucks rewards on Neutrogena Cleansing or Cosmetics. (Have to buy all cosmetics.)

And I was able to find $1 off any Neutrogena cosmetics product on Healthyessentials.com. The coupon can be used only once, however.

Thursday is also a day when new deals go up on SavingStar. AND one of those deals is $3 back on a $12 purchase of St. Ives face care, hand and body lotion, and body wash. AND all St. Ives and Noxema products are Buy 1, Get 1 50 percent off this week. ADDITIONALLY, SavingStar has a $1 back deal on the purchase of one St. Ives® Fresh Hydration Lotion, Oatmeal Scrub + Mask or Pink Lemon & Mandarin Orange Scrub.

To make this deal even sweeter than it is, Coupons.com has two St. Ives to help you save even more money. Those are:

$2 off any one St. Ives Fresh Hydration Lotion, Vaseline Spray 'n Go, or Vaseline Men's Spray
$3.75 off a $12 purchase of $12 or more on St. Ives products.

And now because of my friend from Plink, Marina Rojas, I now have another reason to look forward to Thursdays. At her suggestion, I "checked out" Checkout51. Today's new list of items on which members can get cash back includes a $2 back deal on Aveeno facial care products (excluding cleansing and moisturizing bars), which will be Buy 1, Get 1 50 percent off beginning Sunday at CVS. To help out further with the deal, Healthyessentials.com also has a $1 coupon for any Aveeno product and a $2 coupon for any two Aveeno products.

Moving away from beauty but staying with Checkout51 and saving money, CVS will have a Buy 1, Get 1 50 percent off deal on all Glade products beginning on Sunday. Checkout51 has a $3 back deal on the Glade PlugIns Scented Oil Customizables Starter Kit. Coupons.com also has a $2 coupon for the kit.

Well, I leave you with those deals, and get back with you soon on more ways you can save money at CVS.

$4 off $12 cosmetics purchase coupon and Right Guard/Dry Idea deal

Just when I thought that I'd never get anything again from the ExtraCare Coupon Center that wasn't featured in the weekly ad, I got a $4 off any cosmetics purchase coupon, and I hope that it is available to all of you!

Unfortunately, there are only three cosmetics extrabucks rewards deals this week. However, there are several other sales on cosmetics as well. Also, the coupon I received is good until the 23rd, so there may be different deal available next Sunday on which the coupon will work.

The best fit is a Buy $15, Get $5 extrabucks rewards deal on all L'Oreal cosmetics. If you would spend $12 on Nuance Salma Hayek cosmetics, you could use the coupon to take advantage of the Buy $10, Get $3 extrabucks rewards deal on those products. Or you could spend $10 on those cosmetics and add on a bottle of  Sally Hansen Salon Effects, Complete or Triple Shine and get $3 in extrabucks rewards with the purchase of one bottle.

Also unfortunate is I can't find any coupons for these items.

Nor can I find any coupons for the following Buy 1, Get 1 50 percent off deals:

All Physicians Formula cosmetics
All Almay cosmetics
All Maybelline cosmetics

There also is a Buy 2, Get 1 Free deal on CVS items on which the coupon could be used if one buys Spoiled nail polish or CVS cosmetics.

None of these deals include clearance items, but the $4 off coupon does not exclude one from purchasing $12 worth of clearance cosmetics...

But there is a Buy 2, Get $4 extrabucks rewards on select Right Guard, Dry Idea Antiperspirant/Deodorant or Total Defense Body Wash 13.5 oz. for which there is a $2 coupon on Coupons.com for any 2 Right Guard products (excluding Sport). The Right Guard and Dry Idea items are 2/$8, and after the extrabucks rewards and coupon, they would be only 2/$2!

I will be hunting for more deals that have coupons with them so that all of you can save money this week at CVS.

$2 CVS Beauty coupon

Been awhile since I've gotten any CVS Beauty Club coupons in my email, so I was really to get the $2 off of any $10 Beauty purchase coupon today. The text of the email said the coupon was good only until the 13th, but when I clicked on the link to the coupon, the coupon has an expiration date of the 17th.

I especially like this coupon since it's a Beauty coupon as opposed to just a cosmetics coupon, which means there are more deals this coupon will work on.

Since Pantene and Covergirl are eligible products for the Coke/P&G Buy $20, Get $5 extrabucks rewards or Buy $30, Get $10 extrabucks rewards deal, the $2 off $10 coupon could be used on this deal. In addition to the $2 coupon, the following beauty coupons are available on pgeveryday.com:

$1/2 Covergirl eye products (Buy 1, Get 1 50 percent off)
$1 Pantene styler or treatment product (2/$7)
$1 Covergirl TRUblend liquid makeup or TRUblend Fixstick concealer (Buy 1, Get 1 50 percent off)
$2 Olay Regenerist, Total Effects, or Pro X facial moisturizer ($17.99-$20.99)

These additional coupons are available on Coupons.com:

$2/2 Pantene shampoo or conditioner (2/$7)
$2/2 Pantene Damage Detox shampoo or conditioner (2/$7)
$1 Pantene styler or treatment product (2/$7)

Pantene Expert is included in a Buy $30, Get $10 extrabucks rewards deal on Pantene Expert, Fekkai, or Toni & Guy, and Coupons.com has a $2 coupon for Pantene Expert to help out with that deal as well.

Healthyessentials.com has a $1 and a $2/2 coupon to can be used on the Buy 3, Get $10 extrabucks rewards deal on Aveeno lotion, cream, facial care, hair care, sun care, baby care or personal cleansing items. The deal does not include clearance items, packets 3 ct., facial bar, cream 2.5 oz. and below. The coupons exclude cleansing bars, trial sizes and 2.5 oz. body lotion sizes.

There are several beauty extrabucks rewards deals where The minimum purchase is $10, and the $2 CVS would be just perfect for them. All Sally Hansen cosmetics are part of a Buy $10, Get $4 extrabucks rewards deal, and Maybelline eye products are featured in a Buy $10, Get $3 extrabucks rewards deal. CVS shoppers also can get $3 extrabucks rewards with the purchase of $10 of Nivea body wash 16.9 oz. or scrub 12 oz. Any $10 Smooth 'n Shine purchase will net CVS shopper $5 extrabucks rewards. Fans of CVS' Essence of Beauty line of products can get $3 extrabucks rewards on a $10 purchase of Essence of Beauty body care, fragrance or bath accessories.

L'Oreal products are featured in a couple of extrabucks rewards deals as well. All L'Oreal face, eye, or nail products are Buy $12, Get $4 extrabucks rewards. Also, L'Oreal Skin Care items are Buy $30, Get $10 extrabucks rewards this week. The L'Oreal Paris site has a $10 rebate offer on at $30 purchase of Youth Code, RevitaLift, and Age Perfect products. So with both offers, plus the $2 coupon, you would end up spending only $8 after extrabucks rewards and rebates.

Coupons are available on RedPlum.com for the Buy $15, Get $5 extrabucks rewards deal on all SoftSheen•Carson Hair Care. There are $1.50 coupons for Dark & Lovely and Optimum products that can be used on the deal as well as the $2 CVS beauty coupon.

The coupon also can be used on men's products as well since they count as CVS Beauty Club purchases. There is a Buy 2, Get $5 extrabucks rewards deal on all men's skin items. The Aveeno coupons can be used on men's items that are part of the men's deal. There also is a $1 coupon for Dove Men+Care Face Products available on RedPlum.com.

Rounding out the beauty extrabucks rewards deals this week on which the $2 coupon can be are:

Quick deal on Cheerios

Well, I promised I would try to write more often, but I got sick last weekend, and I have a fiscal situation that is still unresolved.

But there is one deal I can't let pass by without letting you know about it.

Again, CVS has Cheerios on sale for 2/$5, which is good deal, but it's an even better deal with the coupon I heard about from Marina Rojas, a fellow member of Plink, which is a program where one points for spending money at dining and retail establishments to spend on gift cards.

The coupon Marina let us know about was a Buy 1, Get 1 Free coupon for Cheerios. That makes the Cheerios 2/$2.50. You can make that 2/$1.50 if you're a member of SavingStar. They have a $1/2 rebate on Cheerios this month. So that makes each box of Cheerios 75 cents.

For those of you who prefer Kellogg's cereals and getting some extrabucks rewards along with them, CVS is a Buy $12, Get $4 extrabucks rewards deal that includes Rice Krispies Treats, Pop-tarts 6-8 ct., Kellogg's Cereal 8.7-13.7 oz. or Cars Fruit Snacks 10 ct. Kelloggsfamilyrewards.com has several coupons good toward the deal. They are:

$1/3 Kellogg's® Cereals (8.7 oz. or Larger, Any Flavor, Mix or Match)
$1/2 Kellogg's Raisin Bran® Cereals (13.7 oz. or Larger, Any Flavor, Mix or Match)
50 cents/1 Kellogg's® Froot Loops® Cereal (8.7 oz. or Larger, Any Flavor)

Even without the coupons, all the Kellogg's items in the deal are reasonably priced at $1.99 this week.

Other items eligible for the deal are:

Folgers Coffee 10.3-11.3 oz.: 2/$6
Jif Peanut Butter 16-18 oz or Smucker's Preserves 18 oz.: 2/$5
Jif To Go 3 ct.: 99 cents

Couldn't find any coupons for the above items, but I stumbled onto the Jif Most Creative Sandwich Contest. By casting a vote, you could win a coupon for a free Jif product valued up to $4 (excluding Jif to Go products).  The coupons will be awarded after the end of the contest, which is Feb. 7. You can vote once a day until then for a chance at a coupon.

Well, it's been great writing another CVS Tips. I always like to help others save some money.
