Run, Do NOT Walk - Pampers at CVS for $3.99!!

I have done the deal successfully!! It IS an unadvertised deal and was NOT ringing up at my store. However, I spoke with the manager before attempting to check out and showed her the printed page with the advertised price and asked if they were honoring it. She told me she had actually talked to corporate about it this morning and they verified that IT WAS TO BE HONORED. So she knew about it, but had to manually override the price and the ECB. It was a bit of a hassle for us both, but I was patient and let others go in front of me who were stacking up in line and kept reminding myself of how much money I was saving!

Remember two things - be patient and stick to your limit of THREE packs. Good luck everybody. Please report back about your experience!

OK, people I will go the store today and try this deal and report back, but here is the scoop according to
Common Sense With Money:

There seems to be an unadvertised deal on Pampers at CVS this week. The deal is not advertised on the weekly sales circular but it is advertised on the CVS website. You can see the ad and details on this page right here. As you can see the deal as advertised on the CVS website is pretty awesome: Buy one jumbo pack of Pampers for $8.99 and get $5 Extra Care Bucks Back. Use a $1/1 coupon from the6/7 P&G insert and it’s like paying $2.99 per pack.

I have waited to share this “deal” with you because the deal has not printed the Extra Care bucks for anyone yet. Some stores activate their Sunday sales on Saturday and those people who have tried this have not gotten their ECBs at checkout. Since they brought a print out of what’s advertised on the CVS website, almost always a manager has forced the ECBs to print for them. I have been monitoring this since early this morning and even those with 24-hour store, have not had the ECBs to print.

The deal is advertised on the website though. So, if you would like to take advantage of it, just take a print out of the webpage with you and when the ECBs don’t print make your case to the cashier and manager. Chances are very very good that they will honor it. As far as the limit for this deal, the printed ad advertises a limit of 3 on the price of $8.99 per pack.

After arguing with the Photo clerk who was ringing up the regular registers about the package size (because the package didn't match the printout...What the heck?) The manager DID finally ring me up for the correct price WITH the ECB's. A most excellent deal, definately worth the hassle.

can you tell us what store you were at? It might save some hassle if we go to the same store. Thanks!

I visited the store on Aliante Parkway and the manager that helped me was Rikki. I warned her we would be coming in swarms to get the deal. :)

Make sure your pack is "Jumbo" size.

The CVS website is no longer advertising this deal. :( They have removed the ECB's. The packs are still for 8.99.
