If you only stop into CVS on occasional to pick up a prescription or a new toothbrush, you're missing out on some majorly good deals. The drugstore chain has one of the best customer rewards program in the business. Each week, CVS offers hundreds of deals, coupons, and cash back. As a former couponer, CVS was one of the first stores I would hit to score freebies and cheap items. However, you don't need to be an extreme couponer to get amazing deals at CVS. All you need to do is click through the slideshow to discover all the easy ways to get CVS coupons.

"CVS ExtraCare Card"

ExtraCare Card

The first thing you need to do in order to get great deals at CVS is to sign up for their ExtraCare rewards program. This will give you access to weekly deals and coupons. It also allows you to earn CVS ExtraBucks.

"CVS ExtraBucks quarterly rewards"

ExtraBucks

One of the best things about shopping at CVS is that you can earn ExtraBucks. These are cash rewards you can use toward your next purchase at CVS. You can earn ExtraBucks by purchasing specific items attached to an ExtraBucks deal. For example, CVS might offer a deal such as "Buy two toothpastes, get $3 ExtraBucks." When you make your purchase, these ExtraBucks are printed on your receipt. You earn 2 percent back in ExtraBucks for all purchases at the end of every quarter.

"CVS coupon machine"

Coupon Machine

Always stop at the CVS coupon kiosk when you enter the store. Just scan your ExtraCare card at the coupon machine. The machine will print special in-store coupons, ExtraBucks rewards, and any coupons you preloaded to your card. The best part is that you can use them right away.

"Email coupons from CVS"

CVS Emails

Get even more deals, coupons, and sales alerts when you sign up for the CVS ExtraCare email list. This will give you access to high-value coupons, such as 20% off your entire purchase (sometimes it's even 30% off!). They will also send you coupons for deals like $4 off a $20 purchase. These coupons can often be combined with other sales and deals at the store. You can send the coupons directly to your ExtraCare from your email.

CVS Receipts

CVS is notorious for their extra long receipts. However, always look at your CVS receipt before you throw it out. Often the receipt contains coupons or ExtraBucks. Your receipt will also tell you how much you saved and how many rewards you've earned so far.
