CVS Coupon

It’s very convenient to be able to schedule flu shots at CVS. We did that in September a couple of weeks after getting the COVID bivalent booster shot. Getting two shots at once wasn’t very appealing. After we got the flu shot we also received two coupons for five dollars off when spending twenty dollars. I suppose that’s the stores way if thanking you for using their services. These days I keep track of discounts more than usual for obvious reasons. The expiration date was by the end of this year and I left them in the car to remember to use them before they expired. So rather than buy lotion and such at the grocery store, we went to CVS to finally use the coupons. So we loaded our basket with lotion, fish oil, nasal spray and a few other things. When we went to check out we went to self check out. We had no trouble scanning the coupon, but it wouldn’t accept more than one. The store clerk came over and said you can’t use more than one coupon. If you read the fine print on the back it says you can’t combine the coupon with another, but I really didn’t pay attention. What we should have done was do two checkouts because the total was more than forty dollars. We need to remember that the next time around. Unfortunately we probably won’t be using the second coupon unless we can come up with a reason to get twenty more dollars of junk at CVS. I suppose getting five dollars is nice enough, but I’m still not happy about it.
