CVS for Profit: How it Works


For the weekly CVS Deals for 10/5 - 10/11, click here.

I've been asked several times how you can make profit at shopping at CVS. Here's one of the latest scenarios you could do to make around a $3.52 profit. (minus tax)

Buy:
Always Infinity Maxi Pads $4.98. You'll get $4.98 ECBs.
Vitamin Water $2.29. You'll get $2.29 ECBs.
BiC Soleil Razors $5.99. You'll get $4.00 ECBs.
Colgate Max Fresh Beads Toothpaste $2.99. You'll get $2 ECBs.

Use the $3/$15 CVS coupon that was just recently mailed.
Use a $2/1 Bic Razor printable coupon here.
Use $1.50/1 Colgate Max Fresh Toothpaste coupon from the latest All You Magazine.

Spend $9.75 out-of-pocket and receive $13.27 in ECBs. That makes you a $3.52 profit. (Some CVS stores have a $1/1 tear-off coupon on the Vitamin Water. If yours has them, you'll make more of a profit!)

That may not sound like a lot but...it's just about enough to get you a gallon of milk and a loaf of bread. Saving you on your grocery budget! Even if you don't use the "freebie" items, you can donate them to charity! Of course, use the other $9.75 in ECBs to buy what you really need like diapers, household items etc. The ECBs usually have a month expiration date so you'll have plenty of time to use them.

Happy Shopping!
