Note about Extra Care Bucks (ECB):
-Please be sure to sign up for you Extra Care Card at the checkout area.
-Your ECBs will print immediately when you have earned them at the bottom of your register receipt.
-ECBs can be used to purchase nearly anything in the store.  Please note they exclude items such as prescriptions, alcohol, tobacco, and gift cards.  In some areas, this also includes dairy.
-You are limited to how many ECBs you can get on items. I have put limits on my matchups below.
-ECBs expire 4 weeks from the date they are printed.
-Take your card to the Red Coupon Machine, pictured below. Scan your card; you can get CVS coupons that can be combined with Manufacturer's coupons.  It is hit or miss whether you get a good coupon, but it doesn't hurt to try! 

If the item you want to buy is out of stock, be sure to get a Rain Check.  CVS Rain Checks never expire, and you can get your ECBs when the item is back in stock.

I put ?? before items if I am unsure if they are a good deal.  Please give me some feedback.
