I just put KCL Coupons to the ultimate test at CVS, and honestly? I’m still buzzing. It was way easier than I expected!

If you’re sick of juggling a dozen coupon apps and feeling totally overwhelmed, listen up, because I have the good news you’ve been waiting for. KCL Coupons are exclusive digital manufacturer coupons that work at multiple retailers — CVS included — all bundled into one single barcode right in The Krazy Coupon Lady app. It's a total game-changer.

Here’s the breakdown of exactly what happened on my trip and my top takeaways.

Get the KCL App

My CVS Shopping Trip: The KCL Coupon Win

I went in for one thing: a bottle of Dove Serum Body Wash. Why? Because I had a high-value $3 off KCL Coupon.

Before I even left the house, I clipped the coupon in the KCL app. One tap, and BAM — it was loaded to my personal barcode list, ready to rock.

At checkout, I scanned my KCL app barcode first and immediate success . The $3 came flying off my total without a single glitch or extra step needed. Then I popped in my CVS ExtraCare phone number to grab my store rewards.

Done. The entire process took maybe 10 seconds. It was super fast and completely seamless.

Takeaways From My First KCL Coupon Experience

Here are the four biggest lessons I learned on my first KCL Coupon run:

  1. One barcode scan does it all. All those KCL Coupons you clip are automatically bundled into a single barcode. No scanning individual coupons, no fumbling, and no apologizing to the cashier or the long line of people waiting for you. This is how you actually save time.

  2. The cashier didn’t bat an eye. CVS’s system recognized the KCL barcode.  Trust me, as more of us use KCL Coupons, checkout will only get smoother.

  3. Scan order matters. Seriously. This is important: You must scan your KCL barcode before you enter your CVS ExtraCare phone number. If you do it the other way around, some coupons might not apply correctly because the system thinks you've already redeemed similar offers.

  4. Link your CVS account for max savings. When you link your CVS ExtraCare account to the KCL app, you unlock 1-Clip™ Deals. These deals automatically clip KCL Coupons with CVS Store Coupons, meaning even less work for you. If you haven’t linked your account yet, here’s the easy how-to.

KCL TIP:  Always double-check. Sometimes a CVS store coupon will be worth more than a KCL Coupon, so check which will give you the better deal before shopping.

Why KCL Coupons Are a Game Changer for CVS Shopping

Here’s what makes KCL Coupons different: they're not tied to one store’s app. Traditional digital coupons are a one-and-done deal. Target coupons only work at Target, CVS coupons only at CVS, etc. You end up having to open five different apps just to get your savings. Ugh.

KCL Coupons use universal coupon technology (called 8112 barcodes) that works at multiple retailers. Clip once in the KCL app, then use it at any participating store.

Right now, you can use KCL Coupons at these stores:

  • CVS

  • Lowe's Market

  • Discount Drug Mart

  • Food Depot

  • Hartig Drug

The process is the same everywhere: clip your offers in the KCL app, scan your barcode at checkout, and watch the savings pile up.
