So, I went to CVS last night...

He said after they quit selling.

So he would shop there if they never sold tobacco?

That one is trophy size. The last two times I went to CVS all I bought was a 12-pack of Bud. Hey at $10.99 a 12-pack it's a good price. On each of the receipts I found a $1 Extrabuck coupon. They were close to expiring so I went to CVS this afternoon and bought a loaf of Nature's Own Honey Wheat Bread. I tossed down the two Extrabuck coupons and 29 cents, and walked away with a fresh loaf of bread. I find the paper handy to use to test knife edge sharpness when sharpening knives. So long as they give me good deals, I really do not mind there marketing ploys. Simply because they give me a coupon does not mean it is a good deal, but every once in a while those coupons present a good deal.

The extra bucks is all I use... The other coupons are annoying because they come out for the same item I've just purchased and they're only good a week or two. If I bought 2 tubes of toothpaste today, why would I need another 2-pak in two weeks. I just laugh and pull off my extra bucks part and crunch up the rest and leave it in the garage pail. Not worth sweating the small stuff

I have enjoyed decades of exemplary service from CVS so I don't care if they hand me a ream of paper.



Besides, I've got more worrisome things to obsess over like should I carry my .380 or a nerf gun?

Hahaha! [emoji106]

I quit going to CVS when they decided to stop selling tobacco products. I'm not a smoker but take exception when someone decides what's good for me. No tobacco but they still sell alcohol.

I've been hoping they belly up but so far I'm disappointed.

In CT they don't sell alcohol any more at CVS either. When I worked at a small pharmacy years ago we had lotto, booze, cigarettes, cigars (and drugs lol) so we kept our customers happy with all the "vices" lol [emoji4]I hated to move on to another job after that pharmacy went out like so many great mom and pop pharmacies I loved as a kid.. Even had a soda fountain lunch counter. Greatest job I ever had!

CVS coupons are tied to a specific loyalty card, you have to present the card and the coupon to get the discount. In other words, the coupons are not transferable.

Must be a RFID chip embedded on you somewhere. Were you ever abducted by aliens, or maybe drugged while waiting to have a prescription filled. Usually a phone number is an alternate ID for the card. Your state may also have different rules governing the use of these types of coupons.

I’m going with RFID chip . . .

That receipt reminds me of Buford T. Justice walking out of the restaurant.... Diablo sandwich and all

CVS is not in our area. But plenty of other places offer receipts that make great fire starters. Now think about this, if you save there receipts and they are long in a pinch they can be used as toilet paper.

I'm old enough to remember when CVS was the old Katz & Bestoff Drug Stores in New Orleans. (actually CVS bought out the K&B chain). K&B was a great drug store-you could get tobacco products, liquor, wine & beer and they even had a lunch counter. CVS with their holier than thou attitude when trumpeting their decision not to sell tobacco products really pissed me off-kinda like the mayor of NYC deciding for the people's not to sell processed meat. If I want to smoke (which I DON'T) or eat processed meat products than by gum-I'm a gonna do it and no sidewinding, half wit cricker-cracker is gonna tell me I can't. And I'm a gonna drink my diet coke in a 64oz big gulp with a PLASTIC straw to

Neither CVS or Walgreens has anything I can't live without or get elsewhere for cheaper.

 

[Isis1200L]

But buried in that yard plus of paper could be that $1.50 off coupon for the mascara you like.
Or for CVS brand loratadine,
or antacids,
or toilet paper,
or pretzels!

Kinda annoying they track everything you buy.
'Bout the time I'd be outta X, according to the average person's
use of X, here's a flyer in the mail with a coupon for X!
Jeeze, guys! How'd ya know?

I'll push my memory of CVS in Houston. As I recall, Eckard's bought up the old Rite Aid stores and expanded their chain. J.C. Penny's bought Eckard's and continued to expand the chain. CVS bought Eckard's from J.C. Penny's and kept opening new stores. Stores come and stores go, I shop at places that are convenient for me, and where I get good deals. If you have different criteria for choosing where you shop, more power to you.

Be sure to save the Preparation H discount.

Our current CVS store was formerly a Revco.

Between our 12 prescriptions, Sudafed and the kids' benadryl and melatonin they see a lot of us. (5 blocks away)

The Milk Duds are right next to the cash register.....which is nice.
