CVS Deals Breakdown (07/27): 4 Transactions to Grab $61+ of Product for Just $12.92+Tax by Rolling ExtraBucks
Nick (OhioValleyCouponer)Walmart
This week's CVS run has a 4-transaction ExtraBucks rolling scenario — Neutrogena Facial Wipes, Gillette/Venus + Nexxus Hairspray, Ajax Dish Soap, and General Mills Cereals — turning $61+ of product into just $12.92 out of pocket.
The best way to maximize savings at CVS is to separate your transactions to "roll" your ExtraBucks. That means do a deal, get the ExtraBucks back, and use those ExtraBucks on your next transaction to lower your out-of-pocket cost on the next deal — which then generates more ExtraBucks.
ExtraBuck Rewards are coupons that print off (or load to your CVS app account) when you purchase participating products at CVS. These rewards give you dollars off your next purchase.
Watch Nick's full video walkthrough for visuals and bonus tips:
Before You Shop
- Log in to your CVS ExtraCare account and clip every digital coupon in this post BEFORE you get to the register.
- Ask for separate transactions. Tell the cashier you're doing multiple deals and want each rung up separately. Or use self-checkout and ring them up one at a time.
- Order matters. Do Transaction 1 first to earn your first ExtraBuck, then apply that ExtraBuck to Transaction 2, and so on. Don't skip ahead.
- ExtraBucks print on your receipt (or load to your app) — grab them before you start the next transaction.

Tips for This Week's CVS Run
- Clip every digital coupon in the CVS app BEFORE checkout. Unclipped coupons won't apply, even if the item is on your receipt.
- Do the transactions in order. Transaction 1 → 2 → 3 → 4 — each ExtraBuck feeds the next. Skipping ahead breaks the roll.
- The ExtraBuck in Transaction 4 auto-adjusts. Your $3 ExtraBuck reward can only reduce the transaction to the pre-tax total, so it "adjusts down" to $2.98. This is normal CVS behavior — you'll still land at $0.00 + tax.
- Transaction 4 closes out the roll cleanly. There's no ExtraBuck earned on the cereal deal, so you end at $0.00 out of pocket with $0.00 in ExtraBucks remaining. Clean finish.
- Watch for BOGO 50% pricing on the Gillette/Venus razors and Ajax Dish Soap. The system applies BOGO automatically when you scan two eligible items — you don't need a code.
- Nexxus Trial Size is in the trial size section (travel/mini bottles), not with the full-size Nexxus in the hair-care aisle.
