CVS Mistake Turned Around
This morning I headed into CVS to see if there was any Nivea body wash (yeah, right). Since there wasn't I just wandered around the store for a few minutes. That is where I made the mistake. I noticed that the Nivea chapstick/lipgloss was $2.99 and if you buy $15 in Nivea products you get $5 ECB. I had 2-$1 off coupons and a $2 ECB burning a whole in my coupon holder. I also thought...I only need about $5 of product to reach the $15 goal...what I forgot is that the goal I was ACTUALLY thinking of was the Neutragena deal. So I hussled out to the car, grabbed the coupons and ECB, headed back inside and bought 2 Nivea chapstick/lipglosses. I eagerly awaited the receipt to print and my ECB's to be there....and as you can guess, they didn't print. I sat in the car trying to decipher what I had done wrong then I saw it. Neutragena NOT Nivea. :-( Sadness.
So, I kick myself all day. I get home from church, hang up laundry, fold clothes, put a load in the dryer, a load in the washer and finally sit down to work on the blog and what do I see in my inbox? An email from CVS! I am on the CVS Consumer Advisory Board or Panel or something. They wanted me to do a survey and if I didn't qualify I would get $2 ECB however if I did qualify and I completed the survey then I would receive $5 ECB! :-) Woohoo! I qualified and now I am the proud owner of $5 ECB. Now I can go BACK to CVS, find a $5 NEUTRAGENA product, preferably something with a coupon attached, maybe use my $5 ECB and get a $5 ECB back to use at a later date. How fun is that?!?
