Better than FREE Razors at Walmart!

Print the awesome coupon for $6/2 Schick disposable razor packs from  Coupons.com and run to your local Walmart! These coupons will disappear quickly!

Buy 2 Schick Disposable Razor Packs (12 pk) $1.97 each
Total = $3.94
Use the $6/2 Any Schick Disposable Razor(excludes 2 pack) coupon found here
Final cost – 2 packs for FREE + $2.06 in overage to go towards other items!

** Note that the Schick coupon does state “No Cash Back if Coupon Value Exceeds Retail Price”. Walmart's coupon policy states that you can get cash back or overage applied to the rest of your order.  Since this coupon states no cash back, I think you should be able to still get the overage applied to the rest of your order. My sister is trying this now...I will update you on the results!**


***My sister had success! The cashier did ask one of the supervisors and she said that it was acceptable.

CVS Green Bag Tag

Want to make some extra cash just for shopping you are doing anyway? Get a Green Bag Tag from CVS! This is a tag that you purchase from CVS for $.99 and they scan it to link it to your Extra Care Card. At my CVS it was located in a hidden corner of the store so if you don't see them anywhere just ask someone!

Everytime you shop at CVS, bring your reuseable shopping bag or just carry your items out of the store with no bag and they will scan your Green Bag Tag. Every fourth time the tag is scanned, CVS will print you $1 Extra Care Buck (ECB) that you can use on your next purchase! After your first $1 ECB, it has paid for itself and from there on out you are just making money!

To use:
1. Scan CVS Extra Care Card
2. Scan at least one item from your transaction
3. Scan Green Bag Tag
4. Earn money!

Go to CVS on Facebook and register to get your coupon for a FREE candy or beverage up to $2!!!
