leapord420 Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 *MONEY MAKER NO OUT OF POCKET )**Cvs this week has Nova Max blood glucose monitors on sale for 29.99 there are 20.00 in Extra Care Bucks. You will go to pharmacy counter and look for the booklet with (a grey haired couple) light blue and white booklet it says managing and preventing diabetes. This booklet has a 50.00 off the Nova Max blood glucose monitor on page 41 lower right hand corner. This coupon makes the blood glucose monitor free and you get 20.00 in Extra Care Bucks ) HTH )
mrscrafty Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 I've read that the deal is in next week's flyer too.
Narcolove Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Ok, cool! But any ideas on what to do with a free monitor?
leapord420 Posted October 31, 2007 Author Posted October 31, 2007 You can donate them to a shelter, salvation army, red cross, ect.
leapord420 Posted October 31, 2007 Author Posted October 31, 2007 ** ALSO ANOTHER TIP ON THIS DEAL ** Combine it with a 5 off 30 and get weekly freebies (soyjoy) and get 24.00 back in ecb dont spend anything )
Christy Garner Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 My husband is a diabetic so he could definitely use a new monitor and I could definitely use FREE money.
hopeky94 Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Also check with any local senior citizen center if you'd like to donate these. Possibly nursing homes, in-home care providers, and/or assisted living facilities would accept them-- worth checking if you have one closeby! :) HTH!!

KrisinTn Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 I'll be giving this information to my mother that is diabetic. I'm sure she could use it! Thanks again

tiredmom214 Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Can someone tell me more about ecb. Can you use more than one per transaction? Do you have to have the reciept that the are printed on? Is there a min purchase required? Sorry I haven't done uch shopping at CVS up till now, I am just a little confused.:)
zadyju Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 My local CVS has over 100 of the booklets, but they are out of the monitors. Hopefully they will get somemore in this week. They were unloading a truck. There were also other coupons in the booklet for items on sale in this weeks circular. $1 off Bayer Ad was $2.49 $1.50 off Colgate Total Ad was 2/5.49 Get $2 ECB $1 off Triscuit Ad was 2/$4 There were others, but these were the ones I remembered.
dd50 Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Don't shop in CVS much and would like to know where you get the 5 off 30 purchase? Don't understand how you get the soy joy bars free.
cathyt927 Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 Ok, cool! But any ideas on what to do with a free monitor?I don't know if you have kids, but you can also check with your Pediatrician's office. My son has Type 1(Insulin Dependent) and so has received a bunch of meters from vendors. I've given extra one to our Ped who only had an older model as well as sent them in care packages for Hurricaine Katrina. A local Red Cross may be able to use it to send to So Cal with the wildfires.
supershopper1 Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 Good luck! This is YMMV. This was posted several days ago & most stores are now out of stock. I have managed to find only one on a shelf at a time at 3 different stores. I have several co-workers that are diabetics that I have given the monotors to. Some stores will accept the coupons & others will not. It is at the MANAGERS discression. If your lucky they will take the 29.99 off the price by overiding the coupon since it is for $50 & beeps then you also get the 20 ecb. Other stores will not accept it at all since they are telling customers it is on sale & you cannot get both the coupon & ecb. Some will only use the coupon off the full price of $59.
jazzy442 Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 so does the coupon say that it cannot be used on sale items? i would press that if it doesn`t. i didn`t know they could refuse valid coupons at there discretion. they let you use other coupons when you buy clearance items that will be free or a money maker after coupon with no problems.
leapord420 Posted November 1, 2007 Author Posted November 1, 2007 This deal goes thru 11/11 atleast thats what I heard ) that they are running the same promo next week too ) also how to get the 5 off 30 coupon do a search for cvs printables in google it might come up that way ) and SOYJOY bars are FREE after ECB this week so w/ the 5 off 30 coupon that pays for the SOYJOY and your 50.00 nova max coupon makes this whole order free )

Sorry I haven't done uch shopping at CVS up till now, I am just a little confused.:) Hi ) ok so here it goes Extracare buck print at the bottom of your reciept as soon as you purchase the qualifying products. You need to have your ExtraCare card in order to use them. I would say the only min. purchase requirement would be the amount of your ExtraCare bucks unless you want to spend less and forfiet some of your ECB. CVS is a great store they have new deals every week and I hope you can get in on them )
babymains Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 There is another great deal in the book. The breeze 2 is 9.99 and there is a 50.00 coupon plus a mail in rebate. So free plus 9.99 back is good. I have had problems with getting them to take the coupon. They said the will only apply it to the meter but not the entire purchase. That is okay but many store "say" they don't have them but I find them on the shelves. Did anyone else notice that the limit is five? That means one hundred dollars. I have two card (mine and husbands), so $200 at cvs for BF.
leapord420 Posted November 1, 2007 Author Posted November 1, 2007 I did notice that the Breeze 2 is a freebie also and a REBATE makes it even sweeter ) hoping to find these at my store havent checked for these yet )

It is still free. I guess it is worth a try.
toebaby Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 I can't find the book!!!!!!!!! I have been to two CVS here in Indy and no luck.
luvwdw Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 None of the CVS have this in stock in my area. I was told it was new and they have not gotten thier first shipment yet. However, one store did give me arain check that includes the ECB's.
mahalia52 Posted November 2, 2007 Posted November 2, 2007 I checked today and did not find the book.....
fairydustcrissy Posted November 2, 2007 Posted November 2, 2007 Just an FYI if you are planning on doing the rebate. Most of the monitor rebates get denied when they are free. I just dont want you to waste the stamp if its gonna get denied!
nikkilugi Posted November 2, 2007 Posted November 2, 2007 Just an FYI if you are planning on doing the rebate. Most of the monitor rebates get denied when they are free. I just dont want you to waste the stamp if its gonna get denied!The actual price that we pay $29.99 right? We just get the $20 ecb coupon at time of purchase. The monitor isn't actually free is it?
