I got a coupon for free 18 ct. Always Infinity pads with a free sample I signed up for. They have a $2.00 ECB at CVS right now. So not only did I get the pads free ($5.99 value), I also got $2.00 back!

Destiny,
Great shopping! Way to get the most out of your coupon!

when you go to the website to get the Veet IP you can go on to get a bunch more coupons off Air Wick and different stuff. Could come in handy later on.

I bought the April issue of All You (I had a coupon for $.50 off that I picked up at my doctor’s office, of course!). Anyway, that coupon, as well as some others in the magazine, said it was only good at Wal-Mart, so I used it there. Does CVS accept those coupons? Thanks for all the match-ups you do. It really helps me here in North Texas!

Sorry, I did not say what “that” coupon” was! I was referring to the Rimmel mascara. Thanks!

Shelley,
The coupon actually says “only at Walmart.” This is a marketing ploy to get you to believe that the mascara is available “only at Walmart” when it is actually available everywhere. It is a manufacturer’s coupon and doesn’t say “can only be USED at Walmart.” I used it at CVS without a problem. You could possibly tear off the part that mentions Walmart if you have issues with stores accepting it.

Hmmm, they think they’re slick, but they don’t know that YOU are slicker! I see coupons like that from time to time ~ thanks for the education.
