Who else is loving the CVS gift card promotion? The good news is, you can do the deal up to five times this week. You must separate your transactions, and if you spend over $30.00, the extra will not carry over to your next reward. If possible, try to get as close to the $30.00 threshold as possible. I did multiple transactions in order to receive and roll the gift cards. I also tried to find scenarios that worked with some of my store coupons from the CVS Coupon Center to keep my out-of-pocket cost lower.

If the CVS gift cards weren’t enough, there were also tons of freebies (after ExtraBucks) this week. My store was well stocked, but if you find empty shelves, be sure to grab a rain check. This is a great week to roll your ExtraBucks, and if you do not need the CVS brand freebies, they are great donation items! I also grabbed cheap Cheerios Protein cereal. Unfortunately my region did not get the high-value Almay coupon, so I wasn’t able to score cheap eye shadow.

Note: I came in with $4.00 and $7.00 ExtraBucks from last week’s trip. These transactions were over two different trips.
