2 cards?

I was going to have my hubby fill out the form to get the CVS card also that way we could do some of the deals 2 times. Does anybody else do this? Can you do this? Does hubby have to be present or can I use his card? Or am I just being plain stingy? I'm new to all this & just wondered what other people do. Thanks!

I use both, depending on which one happens to have more ECB's to use that shopping trip. Try to keep the stuff sep so you don't get to a register one day to do a deal and you've just handed the cashier your card-but the ECB's you're about to use are his!

Scan your cards every time you visit CVS-surprises sometimes await you!

I also signed up my bf last week and luckilly his card came a few days ago. I wish he would have received the 5/30 email too, but I still think I'm going to use his card just to get the paper towels again and some of the frees. I think I'm going to do the following (wish I had more mfg's for Soleil since their such a moneymaker!) starting w/NO ecb's at all!

Colgate Total Advanced 4 oz. 5.98 - 3.00 mfg = 2.98
Garnier Nutritioniste Face Wipes 25 count 5.99- 1.00 mfg = 4.99
Gatorade G2 20 oz. x3 4.47
Total + Tax: 13.67 Get back: 16.44

Trans 2
Viva paper towels x2 14.98
Hersheys King size w/almonds or KitKat 1.00 Total + Tax: 17.18 – 16.44 ECB = .74 Get back: 5.00

Trans 3
All Small and Mighty x2(BOGO) 7.49 - 2.00 mfg = 5.49
Total + Tax: 6.61 – 5 ECB = 1.61

Total OOP 16.02 which is the cost normally for just the paper towels!

My hubby and I have seperate cards, but it gets very confusing. the ECBs are card specific, so you have to keep track of which are which and which ones expire when. A bit of a headache for me. I'll hold onto his incase something miraculous comes up, if not I'm just going to use my card...

Thanks for all of the inputs- this really helps. I just went in to the cvs & got one more mayebelline foundation for free- limit of 2 & got my hubby's card given right to me. I'm gonna use it tomorrow for all of the freebies plus my card.

FYI -- There are 4 nos. on your receipt these nos. coincide with last 4 on your CVS card. So you can look @ your ECB's and match up which receipt to which card.
