ExtraCare

Every time you shop at CVS/Pharmacy, you are rewarded for your spending with ExtraBucks.   Some of them are instantly printed at the register if you make a specific purchase and some of them are accrued when you spend a certain amount on a group of items and some are earned during the quarter.  You can even shop online at CVS.com and earn ExtraBucks on those purchases too.   They make it very easy to shop online especially with their new mobile and iPad Apps!

First you have Weekly ExtraBucks Savings & Rewards which you’ll find each week in the store,  the sales ad or online.  They usually last a week-long and always have a limit.   But I find that the products my family use most, are usually on sale with ExtraBucks each month!  It’s a wonderful way to make my hard-earned dollars stretch because I can use those ExtraBucks I earn on items we need that may not be on sale that week!

You can also earn on your everyday purchases with Quarterly ExtraBucks Rewards.  How this works is you’ll get 2% of your quarterly spending back in ExtraBucks at the end of each quarter.  And the best part is you don’t have to do anything to earn these rewards other than shop at CVS/Pharmacy and hand over your ExtraCare Card each time you shop.  If you are already doing that, then you’ll earn money automatically!

Not only does CVS offer you ExtraBucks savings each week in their weekly ad, and Quarterly ExtraBucks on all your spending, but they have some other programs to help you save on more of your purchases.  And as a matter of fact, one of them is fairly new and you may not even be aware of it.

If you or your family have prescriptions then you’ll really benefit from filling them at CVS/Pharmacy because for every 10 prescriptions you fill at CVS/Pharmacy, you’ll earn $5 ExtraBucks!   I love this new program and think it’s a great reward for those that have several prescriptions.  Before you’ll earn your ExtraBucks, you’ll have to sign up for this program which you can do online or in person at the store.

They will also offer you more discounts once you are a ExtraCare Pharmacy and Health Rewards member so there will be all kinds of savings happening for you!  This is such a great incentive for me to use the CVS/Pharmacy.  The more ExtraBucks the better!  And they also have an ExtraCare Advantage for Diabetes for those that are diabetic.  You can find more information about that program online at CVS.com.

One of my favorite ExtraBucks programs at CVS is the ExtraCare Beauty Club. I’ve been a member for a long time and I buy all my beauty products at CVS/Pharmacy because of this program. And it’s so easy to earn, and you may not even realize you are earning!

Did you know that for every $50 you spend in the Beauty Department at CVS, you’ll get $5 ExtraBucks? You can sign up in store or online and once you are signed up you don’t even have to think about it, just shop and watch your receipt to see how much you’ve spent so you know when you can expect your next $5 ExtraBucks. Once you reach the $50 mark, your ExtraBucks will just print out and then it’ll start to accumulate again. The more you spend, the more you save. But the best part is that even the items that are on sale each week and that you earn ExtraBucks for, still count towards the Beauty Club. So you are saving, on top of saving, on top of saving!

It is my favorite program because you are earning for items that you are probably going to buy anyways, and once you join you don’t even have to think about it.  You can click HERE to join or read more about it!
