Just got my email from WeShop with my CVS gift card too! I just checked my email and nothing, but I got in on the deal at the VERY TAIL end. I mean RIGHT AFTER I did it they ran out of stock. I left to go hounding RIGHT AFTER it was first posted here and got back and did it right before they sold out.

I just got mine too, just in time for a CVS run shortly!! So I contacted the Budweiser distributor here in St. Louis about some MIR... The gentleman I spoke with told me he'd mail some to me....and mail me some he did!! He sent me a $4.00, $5.00, a $6.00 and a $7.00...2 of each!! He also sent some Planters B2G2 and some others. Now to figure out how to get the items needed to least OOP price..... I'm just hoping CVS has some pizza in stock...If not, I wonder if Walmart will price match the BOGO at CVS....What's the worst they can say? No? I have a $10 EB AND the $10 CVS Gift Card from WeShop.com...... Sounds like trouble to me!

CVS eGIFT CARD QUESTION:
Okay, I ordered two of these on two different credit cards using two different names/emails BUT the eGift Card number and the PIN number on both of them is EXACTLY the same. The code that I was given to go to the print page was the same too.
Did anyone else order two and have this happen?
UPDATE: If you ordered two, they must be printed from two different computers.

I got one for 4 earlier this week, then bought 4 more when I found them in stock. 8 pizzas is plenty for me...I'm not sure that WM with price match a BOGO cuz there is no price listed. I know Target won't Didn't someone post here that WM has them for $4 though? That's only a few cents more than CVS. My CVS had them priced at 7.29 although some people reported finding them 6.99.

Dancin, when I watch those boring Rite Aid videos, I put the mute on and have something else to do while they're on. Last week I watched a bunch of them and cut out my coupons in-between typing in the codes.
Does anyone know a site where there are Edy's icecream Q's?

I have used several of these q's on clearance items but they just enter the amount and all is fine. I love these coupons.

I had the news on while I was doing it, but it was still BORING!! It took me over 2 1/2 hours to wade through them all. UGH!!

constanz22, I plan on getting a raincheck if they are out..If they are, I may still check out WM, only because the q exp 2/6. Besides, we are having a pizza "cook-off" tomorrow night to celebrate my MIL birthday. Each family was asked to bring a pizza and DiGorno would be perfect, since I have to take a salad, too.
Off to make my CVS list...

Do you know the person's name that was so rude to you? Before you call corporate make sure you know her name. Because if everyone else in the store is nice, it might be one bad seed. Be specific the corperate. My DH works at CVS and if there was someone out of line at the store he works for they would want to know exactly who it is.

RE: the shelf life, my experience is that most things can be used way beyond their "shelf life". I work in an industry where we determine this information, and it is usually determined by the manufacturer based on "how long do we want to study this". They are also super conservative in how they determine the shelf life. Very few products will actually cause any harm beyond their shelf life. Medicines shouldn't be used beyond their shelf life mainly because they no longer be effective (this is where my experience is). For thing like makeup, you may notice some issues with the feel of the makeup, but you should try it and then determine if you want to use it. I can't imagine dried pasta going bad, even after a year. I am always reminded of my wacky roommate in college who had absolutely no clue about cooking. She bought a can of tuna at the store, then insisted that it be put in the refrigerator ( just absolutely ignoring the fact that it was on the shelf at the store) then insisted that it had to be eaten after 2 days "because its fish and it will go bad"! It certainly didn't do any harm, so I didn't even try to discuss with her. DBF used to keep syrup in the refridgerator until I told him it didn't need it. I didn't understand putting cold syrup on warm pancakes. ? Butter will melt, but cold syrup is yucky!

Thanks mawmaw. I get a couple of cashiers that read thru every coupon and if they object then I will not be able to use it, but I will try today. saveinla: If you have time, please report back, okay. I have a couple of cashiers that can be that way. Sometimes they're working on Sunday morning and sometimes they're not, but I always go UGH!! inside when I walk in and see them cuz my transactions take a lot longer than they should and I've got other places to go this Sunday morning. It worked. The dixie Q went through with no issues, although the Afrin and Coricidin Ups have a expiry date of 1/29. Luckily I had planned a transaction with only one of each and used the 2 - 4$ Ups as part of the deal to but the Neuragen and Blink tears, so all is well. Hopefully by Sunday they will fix it and you guys will not have an issue. The Lays Stax are part of the monthly deal and give a 1$ Up and also count towards the winter rewards. The chex mix also give the 1$ extra Up. I bought 2 Dixie Ultra Plates (BOGO), NY Bagel Crisps 2, Lays Stacks 2, Chex Mix 2, Pringles 2 & 1 Dreyers Ice Cream and got back 11 Ups. With all the coupons used, it was a profit of 3$.

OK gals...I need to brag on myself. I didnt even clip the first coupon until the Jan. 2nd paper (this month). I have done exactly what ya'll said (start small, one transaction at a time until you get it, etc...) Having said all that....I totally cleaned up at CVS tonight!!!! ;D ;D 4 bottles Xtra detergent $1.49 3 packs extra dessert gum $2.01 2 Diet cokes 20 oz bottles $3.38 1 Hershey's chocolate bar $.89 Minus 4 $1/1 Q for Xtra 2 $.75/1 Qs for gum BOGO on the coke $5 ECB grand total OOP is $.99 Holy Cow!!!! ;D edited to add: I forgot to tell you that I got the $5 ECB by doing the coke deal earlier today. ;D

I have been out "hounding" this morning. First I went to WAGS to buy another 6 Chex Mix. I called Dancinmama, and she told me that the sale was for the Bold and whatever flavor too. While I was at it, I had the cashier scan the Cheddar Cheese flavor. That flavor works too! Deb in Wa, and whoever told us about the Dixie plates and EDY ice ream deal at Rite Aid: It worked like a charm. Those of you on the West Coast need to know that our stores (RA) do not stock EDY ice cream. The ice cream for this deal (the $2.00 UPS) is Dreyers. The Dreyers works. A BIG THANK YOU TO YOU!!!!Ladies (and guys too!), get your Rite Aid shoes on and be ready early Sunday morning. Southern California shoppers (whose sale begins on Friday) are reporting some fabulous double dips on the Buy $15 get $5 deal. Chex Mix and Lays Stax are both part of that promotion and are spitting out $1 monthly Ups per pack. Chex Mix are 2 for $3. If you buy 10 bags your total will be $15, and you will get back 10 $1 Ups and one $5 Up. Ten bags free! If you have Safeway coupon books, use the $1 off 1 coupons and make some money. Lays Stax are 2 for $2, with each one spitting out $1 Up, so free without coupons. If you buy 15 you will pay $15 and get back 15 $1 Ups and one $5 Up. ONE CAVEAT: The Buy $15 get $5 deal is one per card only, so if you need the $5 to do the Dreyers deal, do that one first. You won't get the $5 again on the chips, but with coupons for the Chex Mix, or no coupons on the Stax, you will still come out with lots of free goodies. This is a great day to get those recalcitrant hubbies/boyfriends onboard! Happy Shopping!!

saveinla: looks like I was typing as you were posting the same info. Can you tell what you received your Ups for? I'm guessing $2 Dreyers, $2 Chex, $2 Stax, and $5 for buying $15 -- does that sound right?

My DH is totally hooked also. between the drug stores and HT our monthly grocery bill has gone down $150.00! that is buying things we never could afford before even with us always just shopping at Aldi. I still shop there but only for the things I couldnt find a 'deal' on. If I could kiss you ladies I would!

Whew! I thought I was losing my mind when I saw the board was broken!! Did we crash it with all the good deals??? I went to CVS...of course no pizza...oh wait. Yeah, they had one. Umm.. that didn't work too well in my math challenged mind..So I got two rainchecks for 4 each. The gals at my CVS are INCREDIBLE!!!! So willing to help and cheer you along! It's a pretty new store, so I think that helps a lot. It's worth the drive for me to go there. I did ok, all things considered and having to "think on the fly".which is hard when you have a 6-yr old little girl with you who is pushing the cart and running over the back of your heels, but it's all good!!

CVS tonight: Transaction 1: 3 Planters nuts @$3.00 ea = $9.00 2 Ritz Crackers @2/$4 = $4.00 3 Wheat Thins Crackers @ 2/$4 =$6.00 1 Crest Complete Health = $3.99 Used: $1/2 Ritz $1/2 Wheat Thins $10 EB (from Pepsi deal last week, I think?) Total OOP: $11.53 Rcvd" $5.00 EB for Kraft/Coke (Crackers are part of it. Didn't realize that, so bonus!) $3.99 EB for Crest Pro Health Will submit for $5.00 rebate for salty snacks If I did the math right, I MADE approx. $2.50 on that transaction.....but I flunked math in school.... Transaction 2: 1 Planters nuts $3.00 4 bags of Lays Chips @$2.50 ea = $10.00 Used: $2 EB from the "Magic Red Machine" $10 CVS gift card (from weshop.com) Total OOP: $1.04 Will submit for another $5 rebate for salty snacks Transaction 3: I Sally Hansen red nail polish $.79 1 Crest Complete Pro Health -$3.99 2 bottles water @ .99 each Used: $5.00 EB from Kraft/Coke deal Total OOP: $1.87 I just looked at my receipt and realized the nail polish must have been on some sort of sale. The shelf was marked $3.19 and appeared to be the least expensive option. ( My 6-yr old thought she absolutely HAD to have nail polish, so I consented and got her some.) I was expecting to pay the full $3.19. I didn't realize it was less than that until I got home.

Suzi, could you tell me about the Chex Mix and Dreyers deals? I must have missed it.[/quote] There is a Buy $15 get $5 Up at RA beginning Sunday. Dreyers 1.5 qt ice cream is $2.99 get back $2 Up, and it qualifies for this deal. Lays Stax and Chex Mix also qualify. Stax are 2 for $2 and are each giving $1 Up. Chex Mix are 2 for $3 and each giving $1 Up. If you use the $1/1 SW coupons for Chex Mix you can actually make money on them. Lots of great scenarios with these items, but you can only get one $5 Up per card.

Suzi, could you tell me about the Chex Mix and Dreyers deals? I must have missed it.
Sure, Freesalsa. At Rite Aid: Buy 2 Dixie paper plates or 2 bowls. You can print a coupon for $3.00 off of 2 Dixie on the RA website. Just listen to the commercial. I also found a $1.00 off rewards coupon and printed it.
Buy 4 Dreyers ice cream.
Pay for the $12.00 OOP with UPS bucks from the TP deals.
You will receive a $5.00 UPS for buying the above products, plus the DIXIE is BOGOF. You will also get 4 $2.00 UPs for the 4 Dreyer's ice cream.
On your second and separate order, you can buy Stayfree Pads on a BOGOF, with BOGOF coupons from SS 1/9/11jif you have 5 coupons, you can buy 10 packages for FREE. WOW.
