This week's CVS run is a classic 5-transaction ExtraBucks roll that starts with a Nivea Body Wash buy and rolls the ECBs forward through Crest, Colgate, and a clearance basket to finish. Total retail: $48.86. Total out-of-pocket across 5 transactions: $10.95 + tax. After Swagbucks and Ibotta rebates come back, your net drops to $5.95 + tax — with a $4 ExtraBuck Reward still in your account to roll into next week.

Before You Go — Prep Checklist
- Load ALL digital coupons in the CVS app. Every transaction below depends on a clipped digital coupon. If it's not clipped before you scan, it won't come off.
- Sign up for Swagbucks and Ibotta if you haven't. Both rebates in this haul stack on top of ECBs and digital coupons.
- Bring your CVS ExtraCare card / phone number. ExtraBucks won't print without it.
- Ask the cashier to run each transaction separately. Or use self-checkout and start a new transaction each time.
- Check ECBs on your receipt after each transaction before starting the next one — they print at the bottom.
