Update on Pampers Deal at CVS

I just wanted to mention again that it’s a good idea to take a print-out of this online ad with when you go to CVS to get the great Pampers deal this week.  I attempted to get the deal yesterday and no ECBs printed for me.  However, since it’s clearly advertised on the CVS web-site, stores should honor the deal.  I plan on bringing the ad with me next time!

Here’s my update on the update: The ad has been removed from the CVS web-site for the time being and is no longer valid as of 10 a.m. today.  However, I called the CVS 800 number and explained that I had purchased a pack of Pampers yesterday and did not receive my ECBs.  They took all of my information and will issue $5 ECBs for me.

Apparently, they are working to fix the problem (some of the UPC codes were not working) and hope to have the deal back up by the end of the week.  Whether or not they will is yet to be seen.

If you already printed the ad, you can still try to take it into a CVS and ask if you can do the deal.  It will depend on the store manager whether they will or not–but I say it’s worth a try!

CVS: HOT Pampers Deal Week of 6/7/09

This post may contain affiliate links, which means I will make a small commission if you click and make a purchase.

This may be the hottest deal I’ve ever seen on Pampers, and I almost missed it!  This week, Pampers Jumbo packs of diapers are on sale for $8.99.  Buy them and receive $5 ECBs!!!  If you have any coupons, use them and get an even better deal!  So your deal may look like this:

Buy (1) Pampers Jumbo pack of diapers (Limit 3)
Use $1/1 coupon from the 6/07 insert (or various other $1.50/1 or $2/1 coupons which are available)
Pay $7.99
Receive $5 ECBs
Pay $2.99 after coupon and ECBs!!

There is more info here.  You may want to print this ad out and take it with you since this sale is not advertised in the weekly ad.

Thanks, Marie!
