    Default I hope I did not screw up my CVS trip......

    So, I went to CVS with boys this afternoon. I specifically went to do the Nivea deal. Can't even believe I have run out of body wash! In my distracted state I grabbed 3 instead of 4 bottles at $3/each so as to spend the $10 to get the $3ECB. I paid and once in the parking lot realized I did not meet my $10 goal to get the $3ECB. Am I screwed? Or, can I go back tomorrow (without the boys!!) and get one more bottle to have the $3ECB triggered? If I do the return, I lose those coupons.

    Anyone else do this and have a happy story to tell?

    thanks you guys!

    Corinthians 10:13 (NIV)
    No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.

    That is one thing I love about CVS, their system tracks your purchases. If they say buy 2 get $1 ECB, you can buy one at one store and another at a different store and still trigger the ECB.

    So to answer your question, yes, you can go back today, buy one more and then get the ECB

    Oh, absolutely. Your ecb offers are tracked by your card, you can buy them one a day for the whole week and it will know and trigger the ecb when you reach your limit. If you look down at your receipt it should show the tracking on the bottom. Yours should say Nivea, amount toward offer $9, amount needed $1.

    Just look at the bottom of the receipt and it keeps you updated as how many you need to earn your reward. Just make sure you do it before the new week starts on Sunday.
