woohoo! Looks like CVS might be a little interesting after all! It appears that the Nivea Tins are producing a $2 ECB when you purchase 1. They are $0.99 at most stores so it will look like this:
Nivea Creme $0.99
Get $2 ECB (limit 4)
= Free +overage!
Thanks, FTM












My Name is Josie and I live in sunny Southern California and I am a stay at home mom to three beautiful boys. We all know that living in California is a task of it's own and saving in California IS possible! I started this blog mainly to share all the awesome deals out there and show others how to save in any area of life. Even though you may make the commitment to be frugal and pinch your pennies doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice!
They only had two tins of Nivea Ereme in El Cajon but they had Nivea Soft which also produced the ECB. The Nivea Soft was also .99 cents and was in a small white plastic round case.
Thank you! My cvs didn’t have the time, but had the soft ones in the white plastic round thing with the same price, and same ecb’s:D
I got 4 and it worked beautifully – what a deal! BTW, there was a box of them at the CVS in Temecula on Winchester.
What a small world. I live in murrieta =]
Where are the nivea tins found in the store? Thanks
Thanks I was able to get 4. They are found in the lotion section
I couldn’t find then in Hemet….they had the regular ones for 7.99
I found them in Hemet, actually both containers..what a great deal!
Which one? And was there any left?
i bought 4 of them at the cvs by vons on florida. The manager may have pulled them after i purchased because she was surprised of the ECB. I bought 4 of the white ones and got the ECB
its with the lotions usually on the top shelf.
Thanks!
I saw the manager at my store removing the whole box of .99 tins from
the shelf….. I think they figured it out too.
I GOT14 OF THEM USING DIFFERENT CVS CARDS,REALLY GOOD DEAL.
BOO!!!
That’s not fair:(
That’s lame… yeah, we don’t promote that couponing style here.
Location on Poway rd still had Nivea Soft and deal worked perfect!
Got mine in san diego off of friars road closer to mission gorge. They only had the white containers left, but I was able to get the $8 in eb! Thanks!
just got back from CVS and got 4 tins. My store in Santa Clarita had two cases of them… I also got some nexxus conditioner on clearance for $7 with a $3 mfq cpn and a $3 CVS cpn from the red cpn machine last week for $1 and some tide (we were almost out and i can only use free and clear due to allergies) and some panteene. in total spent $35.79 but got back $10 gas card plus $9 more in ECBs. Not so bad for stocking up on things we were WAY low on.
Josie (or anyone) I know this is off topic but did not know where to ask.
I get 2 copies of the LA Times delivered and I usually get all of my inserts but today only one of them got the P&G insert while the other was missing. I contacted LA Times and they are telling there are no inserts during the holidays. Of course I already know that but I know P&G released their insert this weekend. I already replied to them so we will see how it goes but what do you think I should do?
I only got the P&G also
P&G is the only insert that came in the newspaper this weekend. The problem I had is that one of my newspapers didn’t have it at all. I get 2 copies of the newspaper. So instead of having 2 copies of the P&G insert I only got 1.
I also only got the PG insert from LA Times. Was sad
Please read my reply above. I think you misunderstood.
Now I get it. That sucks even more.
Gaby, I get 4 copies of the LA Times delivered, and occasionally one of the copies is missing inserts. Once over the phone LA Times customer service told me they do not always get enough coupon inserts for all their papers, but they DO guarantee coupon inserts for delivery customers. They do not guarantee coupon inserts for papers purchased in store or from news stands. So, whenever I’m missing an insert, I send an e-mail to LA Times customer service (myaccount@latimes.com) with my name, address, and the number of papers I get delivered. Then I note which inserts were missing and ask them to deliver them to me. I try to do this as early as possible on Sunday morning. If it’s early enough, they send a delivery person with the missing inserts. If it’s too late, then they credit my account.
Thank you! They were really great about it and they actually sent me another copy today. I thought it would be too late but they sent it.
That’s happened to me a few times, I get 6 newspapers. I just call and they always send someone within an hour to deliver the missing inserts. If they give you a problem ask to speak to someone else or call back and a different person will answer.
There was only the PG this weekend. Josie will post what coupons are coming out like Thursdays. Also Sunday Coupon Preview site will have what inserts are coming out. It made for a good catchup weekend for me…..Happy Couponing!
I guess I wasn’t clear. I know there was only a P&G this weekend. I actually follow the blog of the original person who puts out the previews (couponpreviews.info) so I know what is coming.
The problem was not getting the P&G in one of my newspapers but it’s all solved now.
Omg, Gaby! You must’ve been getting more and more frustrated with each response to your post… I was reading the entire thing and I applaud you for keeping your cool *Thumbs UP!!!*
Their are plenty of both tins at cvs in anaheim on brookhurst
That’s my cvs!
There’s plenty of tins at the San Diego CVS on Towne Centre
still lots of tins in la puente and hacienda heights. deal worked perfectly for me
great!! those locations are the one I go to on my way in to work. I’ll stop by in the moring. Thanks for the heads up.
I saw that some of you did not get the the insert, there is a newspaper called EXCELSIOR and it’s free you can find it at Walgreen’s inside, and it has the coupon inserts that come out on Sunday. It’s a spanish publication and it comes out on Friday each week hope this helps.
ohhh that sounds good. Got to check it out
Where is it located?
SO it comes out on friday?
Thanks for the info! I’ve seen this newspaper, but never picked one up.
TFS, Hopefully I’m able to find some!
Got 4 of the white tins and got the 8 ECB
You guys think this deal will work tomorrow?
thanks josie & ftm ..for sharing the DEal ”
GReat find !!The Nivea Soft was also .99 cents and was in a small white plastic round case or tin, I went two stores, both store had plenty”
930p Sun ” bought some Chamin T/p with overage..
early heads up!! i got a chance to act on the deal FAst ..
jo
GREAT DEAL!!! Thank you Josie
!!!
Great deal! Mine had pictures of people on them.
I went looking for the Nivea Cream Tins and the shelf was empty, but then I saw the Nivea Soft which comes in the white plastic, also for $0.99, and I wanted to check and see if it would give me the $2ECB and it did…with a limit of 2… SO, for those who didn’t get the tins, get the plastic ones…
I got those plastic ones too! But for me it said limit 4 and I got 8 ECBs
@HM… lucky! mine said i had only 1 more left… after purchasing only one.
If it’s a deal where it says Buy 1, Get X ECB, your receipt will always say 1 for Quantity Needed to Earn Reward. It’s just telling you that’s how many you need to buy to earn it, not the limit. The limit is 4 and it will say *Offer limit reached when you do reach the limit.
OOO.. i see.. Thank you, Elizarae… i will remember that… =)
I did the same, but my limit was 4 like the others.
The limit is 4. For deals like this where it is Buy 1, get X ECB, it will always say 1 for the Quantity Needed to Earn Reward, until you reach the limit. Just like the Organix deal is limit 5, it doesn’t track to $50, it tracks to $10 for each time and resets once you get to $10, so it will do the same for this deal. It’s just saying that you need to buy 1 to get the reward, not to reach the limit. HTH
Thanks for posting this. I went to CVS tonight to scan my Extra Care card to get my quarterly reward and it was for $3.00 (my friend in Palm Springs always enters my phone number when he shops….he does not use coupons).
I also had a $1.00 Extra Card Bucks that was going to expire soon.
I got the 4 Nivea tins, used my ECB’s, paid the tax and got $8.00 back.
I still have a rain check for 2 Bayer extra strength aspirins from last week and a store coupon for $3.00 off any Bayer product.
Did anyone also get a coupon from the machine today for a FREE Cortaid product (up to $5.99)?
I got mine for 30 cents (as the shelf price was $6.29) and tax….SWEET!
Yep – Got one Sat night!
Curtis, I got that coupon too!!! I was so excited because the cortaid is included in the $30 get $10 gas card. I also have some $1 off coupons for it which will pair well since they are also b1 g1 half off. I also still have 2 of the $2 off any shampoo/conditioner/styling from last week. I’m going to pair this with my $3/2 Pantene, which is also included in the gas deal. Good week at CVS for me.
The cortaid is included in the Gas Deal this week!?!
My bad! Its the Cortizone cream. I knew it was too good to be true!!!
I got that one the cortaid was 6.29 LOL…..
I did too, but can’t find any Cortaid at my store. I checked the anti-itch stuff, and there’s a ton of Cortizone prodcuts and CVS products, but no Cortaid
What’s weird is that my SIL was able to use it for the Cortizone. There was no beeps at the register. We didn’t realize until after we got home.
My store was out and the manager told me I could get the Cortizone and pay the difference or just get the CVS brand for free, so I got the CVS for free, and then I was only $1.21 away from getting a $3 ECB for first aid items, so I went back today and got some band aids for the ECB.
Hi, how long is this deal good for?
Because it could possibly be a fluke that the ECB is printing, it could end at any time. The sale itself lasts all week, but most likely this will be caught and fixed.
Anyone try it today?
Yep! Still working as of 8:30 this morning:)
Thanks!
yep its working! and ladies there’s a good deal on the phisicians formula i got a 15 off coupon from the red coupon machine and they also have the 7 off deal an any product of 7.99 or more and those are included for the gas card any way i bought 9 different make up and moisturizer used all my 9 mq 15 off from cvs coupon and 4 ecb from the nevea and had 5 ecv from beauty club ended up paying 2.48 and got the 10 gas card! oh boy that was some nice trip! hope you guys get it too!
the 15 off is a physician formula coupon
I got the “$15 of any Physicians Formula facial care purchase” but I didn’t know if i could use it on the make up of just the face products. Also is it $15 off one or can I buy multiple items and get a total of $15 off??? Thanks in advance for any answers!
Navy saver! i asked that my self and thank god the store manager helped me understood that coupon so i bought the tinted moisturizer and 7 other type of make up and i used it perfectly i had 4 ecb and a 3/10 cosmetic bringing down to 2.49 oop wich was incredible and plus got the gas card i hope that tomorrow we get the same coupon! that make up is my favorite!
Sorry for the dumb question but does physicians formula have make up or just creams. I have never head of it before so when I did the Nivea deal i looked for it, but just saw creams?? TIA
They have both. They will be in different sections of the store. The creams will be in skin care and makeup in cosmetics section.
Where there’s none at rancho cucamonga off haven
Thank you for letting me know! I was just about to go to the one on Haven!
Still working! Got 4, and $8 ECB back just now
There were still some left of both the tin and plastic ones at the cvs in placenita off of rose and yorba Linda. I was able to get eight.
What is the limit? I thought only 4?
Maybe Ly has two CVS cards.
yes.
What is the limit?
I’m sorry. Didn’t mean to send twice.
out of topic but those who get LAtimes send u 4 copies how much do they charge u ? i only get 1 but thats bc every sunday at 5am i go to da stand thats in da corner of my house and get da 2 papers from their.
Josie posted a good deal for la times a while ago, I have 3 subscriptions and I paid $10 a year each for Sunday’s edition only.
I get 6 Sunday papers and they charge me .50 each paper so $3 every Sunday for 6 papers..
Still working. I just got some a few minutes ago.
Thanks, going to go right after work!
Didn’t work for me. Maybe it’s turned off
