How I Got Two $25 CVS Gift Cards for Free

Now if you remember, I am addicted to CVS.  Some weeks I’m more addicted to others, but nevertheless, I check the ad every single week.

So you can imagine how pleased I am with myself since I got not only one $25 CVS gift card this past week, but TWO!  And how much did I pay for these cards?  Absolutely nothing.

Gift card number one came from the points I collected at My Points.  It took a few months, but I finally got the 3,600 points needed for the $25 gift card.  All it took was patience, time and a happy clicking finger to earn this one.

Gift card number two came from a coupon I had for a $25 gift card with any new or transferred prescription.  Well, it just so happened that I got a new prescription last week.  I drove my happy little self down to CVS and proudly handed over my coupon.  Voila, just like that I got another $25 gift card.  Oh, and the prescription only cost me $11 (which I would have spent regardless), so I still came out ahead.

Sometimes in life it just takes a little creative thinking to get some of your necessities.  Using these gift cards in conjunction with coupons and Extracare Bucks, I should be able to get many of the things we need around the house for free.  Literally.

      Good deal on the CVS cards. I am a master of deals. Once I got a used digital camera on Ubid for free. I applied for a credit card through their website and got a $150 credit on a purchase and then bought the camer for $150. It equaled out to $0 for the camera.

      I have always thought that a good trick would be to sign up for a prescription at a place like CVS, get that gift-card, and then transfer it to another store that was doing a similar deal, to get THAT place’s gift card. :D
