There are several freebies this week, not to mention those offered for the entire month of October.  (If your household supply of toothbrushes is getting low…this is the week to stock up!)

To answer a few common “ECB” questions:

• It is NOT necessary to purchase the full limit in one transaction. Purchase any quantity, including one, of any item below, and receive an ExtraCare Buck equivalent to the purchase price.
• The ExtraCare Buck(s) will print at the end of your receipt and can be used like cash to pay for future purchases.
• You can check out in multiple transactions, and use the ECBs from one transaction to pay for another transaction.
• Use manufacturer coupons if you have them, to make the items below even better than free!

Thanks to Claire for this awesome find! Whether or not you’re willing to purchase cosmetics online, one can never have too many cosmetic cases! Anything in the form of a bag, basket, or bin can be used to organize all of those household essentials. I keep a train case-style cosmetic bag filled with first aid essentials that can be quickly grabbed for those emergencies that require anything from a bandage to burn cream. It’s practical, handy (with handles!), and much more stylish than your average first aid kit!

Through 10/08/08, ALL of the E.L.F. cosmetic cases are 75% off with the use of a coupon code … meaning many cosmetic cases are under $3! With every order of $20 or more, you’ll also receive a free subscription to W Magazine!

Thanks to all who emailed - with the holiday seasons right around the corner, the timing of this promotion couldn’t be better! Through Saturday, 09/27/08, Reach Ultra Care Toothbrushes and Floss are on sale 2 for $5 at Walgreens. Purchase two in a transaction and receive $5 in Register Rewards (similar to Catalinas and CVS Extra Care Bucks, in that they print as “paper gift cards” at the end of your receipt). Because Walgreens doesn’t track shopper habits via a member card, there’s no limit to the number of eligible Register Reward purchases per shopper/per promotion.

There are more CVS freebies than in April, though most of the purchase limits are set to three, instead of the usual five. With a new coupon valid for $3 off any $15 purchase (through 06/06/2008), May is a great month for CVS shopping.

To answer a few common questions:

• It is NOT necessary to purchase the full limit in one transaction. Purchase any quantity, including one, of any item below, and receive an ExtraCare Buck equivalent to the purchase price.
• The ExtraCare Buck(s) will print at the end of your receipt and can be used like cash to pay for future purchases.
• You can check out in multiple transactions, and use the ECBs from one transaction to pay for another transaction.
• Use manufacturer coupons if you have them, to make the items below even better than free!

Earlier this month, I posted an article about a website for the sole purpose of obtaining a CVS coupon.  (Thanks for the coupon, Mr. Website, and we hope you don’t feel too used and abused by us CVS shoppers.)  The site actually seemed interesting, I made a note to return later, and fast forward to almost four weeks later…the website is a better find than the CVS coupon!  (As my husband would say, “Never step over a twenty to pick up a penny” .)

For those of you who shop CVS, you probably remember the name of Wellness360 as the generous CVS coupon portal.  There’s a reason, however, that this site is titled Wellness360 and not CVS360…the focus is on physical health with financial benefits, and no purchases are required.  You won’t earn a $1 ECB for purchasing a candy bar, but you will earn money for tracking the CVS candy bar you ate while no one was watching!  You’ll also earn money for tracking every aspect of your physical health, from dieting and weight loss to medications…you’ll earn money for each visit to Wellness360.  Additionally, Wellness360 will reward you with a percentage of the cash that your friends and family earn after you refer them to their site.

Thanks to Andrea for emailing this information about the Airborne class action settlement.  The claim is that Airborne made false claims about it’s ability to cure and prevent colds.  If you purchased Airborne before November 29, 2007, you’re entitled to a refund.

If you still have your receipts, there is no limit to the number of purchases for which you may receive refunds.  (By the way, all prescription and non-prescription purchases are tax-deductible, so save all of those receipts!).

If you no longer have your receipts, you may submit up to six product purchases for reimbursement.
