So I just got back from CVS where I went in search of the Vita Frute Cocktails moneymaker that I told you about last night. Here are a few things to note:
- Not all states are receiving the $5 Extra Care Bucks (Chicago does not seem to be generating them, so that leads me to believe that Illinois is out)
- There are people receiving ECB even if the shelf is not signed as such (So between this and #1 above, you will have no clue whether you’ll get them or not until you try)
- I found an $8 rebate hangtag on the bottle that I just purchased. This rebate is good in limited states including: CO, GA, IL, KS, LA, MA, MD, MN, MO, NC, ND, NE, NH, NJ, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, VA, VT, WA. You must be 21 years old to file this rebate and they do ask for your birthdate.
- Some people have a $7 Ibotta Vita Frute Cocktails coupon available and others don’t. This could be based on the state you are in (I got one and I’m in IL), but it could be completely random. Check your account and make sure that you are looking under the CVS coupons specifically.
All of that being said, here is what I just did/intend to do to get a great deal:
I bought one Vita Frute Cocktails by VEEV for $13.99 regular shelf price (in Chicago)
Used $5 Vita Frute Cocktails by VEEV from 8/17 RP (or $5 Vita Frute Cocktails by VEEV coupon)
I paid $9.26 plus tax and filed the $7 Ibotta rebate
I will file for the $8 rebate attached to the bottle
Final Price: $5.74 moneymaker!
This moneymaker pays for both my tax as well as my stamp, so that’s a bonus as well! Plus, if you find that you DO get the Extra Care Bucks to print, you’ll turn this into a $10.74 moneymaker! Do the best deal for you in your area. Between all of the options, you should get some cheap, free or moneymaking cocktails, so give it a shot!
