Default Aveeno question

My IP $10/3 Aveeno coupon is for Positively Ageless only. According to the ad, they are $18 each. How are people combining the $10/3 coupon with purchasing 3 $6 products and 1 $7 product? As far as I can see, they are not Positively Ageless. Am I missing something? Do I have the wrong IP coupon?
Many thanks.

There are PA cleansing pads that cost less, like $9.00 each. Three of those =$27, -$10= $17.

Check the Aveeno threads for more info. I didn't buy the PA but I read about this in one of them.

Default more affordable

The other "affordable" items are SUNSCREEN for $9 they have spray kind at 50 SPF and lotion at like 70SPF. The other item I found was a "firming" lotion for $9 or $9.99.

HTH! I have way TOO much AVEENO LOL

I just got back from CVS. I tried the PA cleansing pads but they didn't generate the ECB's so I returned them. I don't really need the sunscreen, but I'm trying to use my 10/50 coupon so I might pick some up anyway.
Any other suggestions? Every PA product that had the yellow ECB tag was $18 except for the sunscreen.

I wonder if it wasn't included in the advertised sale ??? I know it worked last week and all the stores I went to had the tags. Weird

CVS probaly caught on and took it off since that Q was out there, some of us got some really good deals

Hmm, who could that be, person who scored the great Aveeno deals 3 times in 2 sales weeks?

So last night I went to get

3 Aveeno Therapeutic Shaving gel @ 3.99 each
2 Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion @ $7 each.

When I went to pay for them, no ECB's printed out!!! I asked the cashier why this happened and she pointed to the bottom of my receipt that said, Limit reached 3. I said that was from the AVeeno deal last week and this was the first Aveeno purchase I made from this weeks deal. I asked sweetly if there was anybody she could ask and she paged the manager. The manager came, I told him the situation. Then he took out the circular and looked at my purchases. He takes out the shaving cream and said, you're supposed to purchase only from the ones in the picture. I said I thought so too but I saw that there were signs under the shaving gel that it was included in this weeks Aveeno deal. So we both went to where I got my shaving gel and he saw right underneath the price tag it clearly had the yellow tags saying get $10 ECB's when you buy $25 of Aveeno. Plus they had pictures of the shaving gel included in the little posters on the aisle.

Anyway, the manager was very nice, he said that it was a mistake and that whoever prints out the yellow tags print them all together and that the gel is really not included the Aveeno deal but he gave me my $10 ECB!

I was wondering the same thing as the OP...after going yesterday, I ended up getting 2 of the PA sunscreens and using the $5 off 2, and got 1 of the shampoos and used a $2 off any 1 aveeno.

I really want the PA warming scrub, but I couldn't find it, and I don't want to pay $18 for it!!! I figure that the q are good till the end of the year, so I will wait and see what else comes up through the year.

I went back to my CVS today to do the Aveeno deal again since my receipt said I had $25 left until I reach my ECB... even though I did this the other day (saw others going several times so I thought I would try too).

I wandered the aisles looking to see what deals were included in the 25/10EcB and my store has 2.99lotion included as well as the 4.99 shaving gel. I just looked to see where the tags were hanging. I had to get a raincheck for 4 lotions but per the cashier (who was supper friendly and helpful) she said I would get the ECB's when I purchased them and I reached my 25 limit... I'm guessing I hold on to my receipt since it does show I only need $12 to reach the ECB?

So today I purchased
2 shaving gels: 4.99: 9.98
1 lotion: 2.99
Total: 12.97 - 3 $2 off Aveeno coupons:
OOP: 6.97 (Used ECB's)

When the other lotions come in I'll have:
4 lotions: 2.99 X4: 11.96
minus 4 $2 aveeno:
OOP: 3.96 (use ECB's)

Total OOP combined will be: 10.93 and I'll get 10ECB back so everything cost me .93! Now I'm just hoping this rain check thing works out.
