CVS Gas Card Transaction Scenarios!


Here is an idea for those wanting to take advantage of the $10 Gas card deal. This is geared toward those who do not have any ECB’s to start.

This idea requires a couple of transactions and lots of coupons:

Transaction #1
Buy (6) Revlon Nail Polish $4.99 (limit 6)
Use (6) $1/1 Revlon Nail Enamel, exp. 6-30-11 (SS 04/10/11)
Pay: $23.94
Get back $20 ECB
= $3.94

Transaction #2
Buy (3) Jet Dry $2.99 ea
Buy (2) Lysol Spray $5.00 ea
Buy (1) Folger’s Coffee $8.99
Buy (1) Tostitos $2.50
= $30.46

Use (3) $1/1 Jet Dry coupons from 4/17 SS
Use (2) $1/1 Lysol spray coupons from 5/22 SS
Use (1) $1/1 Folgers coffee from 4/10 RP
Use (1) $1/1 Tostitos Chips 5/21 Pepsi Co (this would require you to do the transaction tonight–if your store turns their sale on early)
= $23.46

Use $20 ECB from last transaction
= $3.46
Get back $10 Gas Card

I think this is a great deal. Everything here for only $7 after ECB’s and Coupons. If you do not have any ECB’s to start–your Out of pocket will be high, but worth it. Anyone have any deal ideas they would like to add? Please post them in the comments :)
