Where can I get a CVS Reinventing Beauty Booklet?

So I went to Walgreens and bought the 3 kotex for $9.00 - used 3 $1/1 coupons and my $3.00 RR didn't print. The manager told me that they didn't print when you use a coupon - because you have to spend the entire $9.00 - so I'd either have to buy a 4th for another $3 or a total of 5 with coupons for each. There is another Walgreen's down the street where historically this has not been the case but I haven't been to check. Have you heard anything about this?

Thanks!

This is in response to Kim R. - I have had the same problem at my local Walgreens - RR's not printing when I use a coupon, but at my mother's Walgreens, about an hour away, I can use a coupon and the RR will still print. I wonder if the management at each Walgreens gets to make this decision. I very nicely told the manager of my Walgreens that the RR program is really great, but not so great if we can't use it in conjunction with coupons.

Kim, I've had the same problem at my Walgreens. The manager told me there is now a price point associated with RR items and if you get your total down to low, you don't get the RR's. What jerks eh?

I bought the Swiffer Duster starter kit and the sweeper starter kit and it worked for the $10.

Almay costmetics B1G1 and priced $1.99-14.99 so if you get the $1.99 items and use 2 $1 off coupons you can get them both free.

I bought the Swiffer Sweeper and the Swiffer Duster Kit (and used the "get a swiffer duster kit free" coupon) and it printed out the ECBs. I got tons of stuff for my $1.19 OOP (and diapers too!) The Revlon deal is pretty sweet this week.

I purchased the Duster starter kit and it worked for me as well. I bought the sweeper starter kit (7.99), the duster starter kit (6.99) and used the coupon for the free duster starter kit. So, I really spent 7.99 for both and got back the $5 ECB's.

I have encountered some serious issues with CVS this past week ...mine will no longer be accepting printable coupons (except their own), and I cant get a straight answer to the "over coupon limit" problem I encountered 3 times this week. The manager, nor the cashier could tell me anything besides, "whatever the computer says" as being the amount of coupons they will allow me to use in transaction. Problem is, I have used one, two, and three coupons ..in three different transactions. I got the "over the limit" message everytime. Anyone else having these issues?

I had problems with the water deal and the only way I could get it to work is if I bought Sobe Life...so we did, and they were NOT good. I would have rather spent $2 and gotten 5 Gatorade!

When matching up the reinventing coupon with the products included in the 5/$5 sale the only ones that match up are Sobe Life and Propel, but none of the stores had Propel labeled as included on the shelf and they were ringing up at regular price so they wouldn't be willing to adjust it even though the ad says PROPEL. They said since Propel wasn't in the picture either it was probably a typo.

CVS was TOTALLY not worth any kind of effort this week! :(

Where is the CVS Reinventing Beauty booklet? I keep seeing deals that need coupons from it, but I don't know where to find it. Thanks!

Courtney, try calling 1-800-shop-cvs to ask about your coupon issue. This is the customer service line and they should be able to help resolve the coupon limit problem.

How is this Propel deal different from the October Propel Deal? In the October deal, wasn't it that you buy 2 Gatorade or Propel (20-24 ounce) and get $1 ECB with a limit of 5? But then with this weekly deal (at least as is written in my ad), it's buy five "Sobe, Propel or Gatorade 20 ounce" and get $3 ECB limit 1?

Maybe the overlapping deal is why the Propels aren't working?

If you have three of the Reinventing Beauty coupons, it's probably worth it to buy 6 Propels at $6, so you can use 3 of the $1 coupons and get $3 ECB back.

Yeah, I want to know where this CVS beauty book is too.
So of the problems I have heard above about Wags not giving RR w/ the use of other coupons is dumb or CVS not matching the ad bc the Propel is not in the picture. I also agree that the RR program is great, but not if we can't use other coupons. I am really disappointed that I can no longer use coupons with the 5/20 coupon either. Normally, I scan it first. Then other coupons. However, last time I did that, it automatically kicked the 5/20 coupon off after I used more than they allowed of other coupons. I think it is lame bc they will get reimbursed for those coupons.

I just came back from CVS and feel like I hit the jack pot so I just had to post what I got. Here it is:

2 folgers 13oz (I think) They were on sale last week or the week before for $1.99 each so I got a rain check. Used $1 off two coupon = 2 folgers for $3
2 Right Guard Deo. @ BOGO $3.29 used a $1 off coup= 2/$2.29
4 snack size bags of halloween candy, on sale for 2/$3 used 2 $1/1 = $1 a bag
2 cvs baby wipes supreme (if you like huggies wipes you will like the CVS supreme ones) 2/$4
1 wellpatch arthritis $5.99 free after ECB
Then I used $2 ECB from the Colgate Toothpaste
$4.98 ECB from Alway infinity (last week)
$5.99 ECB from another Wellpatch I purchased last week and my final cost oop was $6.83 and I received another $5.99 ECB for the Wellpatch to boot. Yeeha!!

Is anyone else having trouble finding the 3-ct. Well Patch Relief Pads. The shelf has been empty all month at my store and it's really starting to make me mad. Last month our store never did get in the arnicare that was in the monthly flyer. Seems like they are out of everything anymore when I go. You would think they would order more when something is going like hotcakes.
