   Since they haven’t been having too many great sales lately, this is a good idea to me. I’m sure the employees will like not having to change all those tags; just hope it doesn’t affect their hours/pay though.

  Thanks for letting us know your thoughts on this, Tracey. 💕 It does sound like there are mixed reactions from CVS employees mentioned in the post on those points you mentioned too.

   Their ads already pretty much look the same to me every week now, except for holiday candies.
   Like Walgreens, CVS is turning into a prescription+convenience store.

  Their ads and deals have certainly seemed to change a bit over the years, alex. ❤️ I always loved “rolling” my ECB from one transaction to another when shopping there more frequently a few years ago.

   The CVS deals and ability to roll ECBs of years past have not been the same for a while. Perhaps this will help keep the stores neater and in stock since employees won’t have their time constantly consumed changing the yellow tags as often. I’d be interested to see how they handle coupons from the coupon machine. I wonder if instead of being different each week, if they’ll be valid and the same every two weeks as well.

  Thanks for onlinementing, Tony B! It will be interesting to see if they make changes to those coupons as well! We’ll keep our eyes peeled for any further information on this! 💗

   Does that mean they will restock the sales? If you aren’t there first you get nothing. I don’t shop Sundays so I stopped going to CVS altogether. I do miss the deals we used to get. Those were the good ole days!

   I’m hope sale items will be in stock since the sale will now be for two weeks. So many times, I have gone to CVS only to realize that someone beat me to the sale. It did not seem to matter if I went the first day of the sale, middle of the week or last day. It was as if CVS only stocked a few of the sale items. Or if it was buy one, get one…there was only one. I don’t understand why sale item’s stock is not increased. The majority of the items listed in their sale ads have a long shelf life so it would not hurt if there is an excess of shampoo that did not sell. After all, it will probably be on sale again and the excess stock could be used then. I would think keeping customers happy is also important. It could just be the CVS’s in my area. I was out of town recently and stopped in a different CVS and was amazed at how many different Christmas items they had in onlineparison to my local store.

  Thanks for sharing your experience with the availability of sale items at your location, Barbi! I’ve had the same experience with my locations not having many of the sale items available too! Hoping this might be different when the new weekly ad cycle begins! 🤞❤️

   Yay! I’ll just shop there less. We all know if you don’t go the first day of the ad they don’t have items, and it takes 3-4 weeks to restock. Sometimes more. Their sales have not been great the last year either.

   I have a question about the cvs carepass membership which they now call extra care plus. I’ve been a cvs extra care plus paid member from the past one year. For me it was well worth the subscription considering the $10 they would send each month. I could shop online and get it shipped for free to my home. However, I notice this year they have changed the free shipping minimum to $10 after deals and rewards onlinepared to earlier when your subtotal before rewards had to be $10. So earlier I could get a $0 order shipped for free but now I have to pay $10 out of pocket for them to give me free shipping. otherwise they charge 4.99 as shipping charge. I’m not sure if I will now keep my membership .. is there a way to get around the minimum shipping requirement

  Hey there, Misty! I’m seeing the same information when looking through the terms and conditions for Extra Care Plus 🤗 – Shipping is FREE for orders of at least $10 after the application of discounts, coupons or rewards and before taxes are applied.
