For 2012, CVS has released an updated coupon policy that much better explain their guidelines. While most won’t surprise you, a few things you may notice include:
The total value of coupons may not exceed the value of the transaction. Sales tax must be paid, if required by state law.
This means make sure you have filler items in your cart, if you have coupons that do exceed the price including your Extra Care Bucks.
CVS reserves the right to process coupons in any order.
This means, they may (and may not) decide to take your money off money CVS coupon after your manufacturer coupons, forcing you to buy more to hit the minimum amount required by the coupon.
CVS accepts multiple dollar-off transaction ($3 off $15) in one transaction, if they apply. (e.g. customer may use (2) $3 off $15 if they are purchasing over $30)
That’s just good to clarify, since I’ve had cashiers question this.
Buy One Get One Free Coupons
- Two coupons may be used on a buy one, get one FREE promotion as long as it does not exceed the item total.
- Buy one, get one free promotions may be combined with a buy one get one free coupon.
- Sales takes will apply if applicable.
Thank you CVS! I’ve had so many issues with this and I’m so glad it’s in writing now!
More things I noticed include:
- CVS will not accept a percent off coupon for an item that is on sale.
Anything else jump out at you? Overall, looks like a great coupon policy!
