I went this morning and no ecb’s printed for the pampers. (I didn’t have the page I printed either because I ran out of the house so fast this morning I forgot it on the table.) My cvs manager would not print them for me because he said he had heard nothing about it. Anyways I talked to a guy from cvs.com (corporate is closed today) and he said they were aware they are having issues with the ecb’s printing and they are working on it. He said it should be fixed by tomorrow. Also if you have already bought them and ecb’s did not print out, keep the receipt, call corporate when they are open and they should issue your ecb’s.

I just wanted to add that I , too, did not get automatic ECBs for the pampers this morning, but both stores I went to printed them out manually for me (I only got 3 total, but spread it over 2 stores). I had to explain a lot about where I found the ad, and they kind of tried to put up a fight (saying stuff about an event code, maybe it’s an online deal only–thank goodness the page says “ONLY IN STORES”, etc), but I was friendly and asked them to honor it and both managers did.
I went first thing this morning, and no one in either store had heard anything about it.
I had my best CVS day ever, which I am getting ready to post about…it was amazing! $111.56 in merch for $6.60 out of pocket!

I was curious where you found the CVS Q’s for the OFF Clip?
Are they in store or did they print out on your receipt?
Mel
Pamper Deal is a DUD! Two CVS managers said this is not legit because there is no barcode or code to type in the register. If you are getting this deal…it’s only because your store is bypassing the system. Don’t expect this deal to work! I’m calling the 800 number to ask what’s up.
Wendy
I did the OFF clip on deal about two weeks ago when the stater packs were $7.99 and the refills were $3.99. This is how it worked for me.
BUY (2) starters
(2) refills
Use: (1) BOGO starter coupon
(2) BO GO refill coupon
(1 ) $3.00 off starter coupon printed from CVS website.
I did not have the $2.00 coupon. Still a great deal.
Michelle
I think it is legit when you go to the cvstoday.com website it is there on the front page
Amber
Where does it show that the diaper deal is limit 3?

I am so excited…I got 3 jumbo packs of Pampers and bottles of dish soap for $5.00 because I had extra coupons and also a $5/$25. I did have to talk to the manager so thank you so much for the heads up about printing the page! =)
Melissa
I read somewhere that if your ECB’s don’t print now they will show up on the 1st of July for the pampers. (I will try to find the source) I see you recommend using 6 $.75 coupons for the toothbrushes. Do I have to buy 6 newspapers to get them? I am confused
Jenny
With a little effort was able to get the Pampers diaper deal to work and left with $15 ECB. I also used three $2 P&G booklet coupons and a $5 off $30 CVS coupon.
I printed 3 copies of the deal from CVS.com in case they wanted one per pack. The cashier had never see this deal and said she couldn’t do it unless it was listed in the ad or the month ECB booklet. No ECB printed after the transaction. She said that Pampers deal might be for stores in specific regions of the country. I explained to her that this was advertised from the homepage of CVS.com and I never entered a zip code. The cashier asked a manager was nearby. He didn’t say a whole lot, but noted that the dates from the website were valid and manually printed my ECB. As I left, he immediately got on the phone – I assume he was calling to find out the situation with the inconsistent advertising.
Hopefully others will be able to get their ECB too!
christina
I too tried the Pampers deal and with NO luck! The Online ad says, “Pampers available online or In store”. I understand this to mean that the promotion is available in store, and that Pampers can be found there.
Dore'
My ad on CVS said offer valid in store only, which further proves the point we should get the ECB. My cashier refused to do it today, but luckily the District Manager is my cousin so a quick little phone call to him at home got it solved. I got 3 packs for $13 OOP and 15 ECB printed! I’m going back tomorrow to do it again since nothing is on receipt saying my limit was reached!

Looks like those of you who got the deal are lucky – I just checked the link again to try and print off of IE (didn’t work on Firefox), and the link no longer advertises the $5 ECB deal.
Janey
Yep, looks like CVS caught their mistake because the link no longer has the deal on it. I KNEW I should’ve printed it yesterday. :(
Janey
If anyone happens to have a copy of the file saved and could email it to me I’d love you forever! :)
angie
the page i printed out shows pampers deal is good til the 13th. yet when i called them on this today, they said the offer was only good until 9 a.m. the cvs manager had already called them for me and said they decided to take back the offer since they were not printing and ended it at 8:30. sounds like they have issues with keeping their facts straight as well as honoring their offers. i think we should all email them and tell them what we think of their ethics.
Danielle
UGH! I went w/o printing the page out (because my CVS is typically ON THE BALL) and I didn’t get my ECB’s when I told the cashier she told me to call the headquarters but was a Pain…..First the Old Navy fiasco…now this…my 2 GREAT deals of the week bit me in the butt! Thank God for Big Y and their buy 1 Get 2 free deal…..I would’ve been devistated this week if it weren’t for that. If anyone happens to have a copy of that CVS page could you email it to me? [email protected]
Thanks!

We have reports that the managers of our CVS stores are not honoring the CVS/Pampers deal, “they don’t know what to do”.
Here is what we and what our friend Lisa has done. Good luck and let us know how things turn out for you. Just remember, be nice, smile and stand up for yourself.
We called this morning about 11am central time and was told by a CVS representative that this offer was “posted in error” and that it had been removed from the site. Upon checking this site at 4:15pm it is there and has not been removed. We called the customer service desk again (1-888-607-4287) and was told that this “was not an valid offer and that the ECBs will not print and they will not give out the ECBs if you purchase the diapers”. We asked why the site was still posted and she said “that they were working on it”.
Lisa’s Experience:
I just called the number at the bottom of my printout from the CVS online ad that shows the $8.99 plus $5 Extra Bucks (1-888-607-4287.) Explained my situation to the rep and she put me on hold to check. About 30 sec. later she came back on and told me she was sorry but there was nothing she could do for me because that ad was a mistake and had been pulled at 10 am this morning and revised on their website. I told her I printed the ad off at about 8:30 am and made my purchases at 10:46 am. She again apologized and said there was nothing she could do. I politely asked for a manager, and got a floor supervisor after about a minute holding. I again explained the situation and she said she would go ahead and honor it, no argument. She had me read all the info from the top of my receipt and get the packages of Pampers to verify the UPC code. She said my $15 extra bucks (for buying three packs of diapers) will be available in about 48 hours because their system will take some time to update, and that it will print off at the bottom of my next store receipt to use on a future purchase. She said I could even just buy a 10 cent item, the coupon would print, and then be available to use in the store that day.
Lee
Dang, I wish two things: one that my printer had worked this morning, and two that I had read the last comment before going to CVS! I lost $6 ECB on the pampers, and now have nothing to roll over to the next period… Tara, can you edit the original post to NOT show the ECB since CVS is not honoring it and you can no longer print it? …just a thought.
Andrea
Just wanted to tell you that the Dove Ultimate Visibly Smooth (the ones the 1.25 coupons are for) are not on sale nor do they count for the ECBs. Found out the hard way :(
Cara
So I bought diapers and they did not give me my ECB’s and I went to print off the page and they have taken off the $5.ooECB offer!?! Any suggestions?
Tara Kuczykowski
Thanks, guys! I just updated the list. Sorry I haven’t been around much today – the flu has really knocked me for a loop.
Danielle
I just went to my CVS with my printed out $8.99 with $5.00 ecb ad from the internet. I bought 3 packs since it said limit 3. It obviously didn’t print my extrabucks. The cashier called up the manager who, I think, pretended she didn’t know anything about it. She went to the store ad and showed me that there was no $5.00 ecb. I told her I knew that and that was why I printed the online ad from CVStoday.com. I continued to politely ask questions. Eventually she said that she has been given the approval to give me only $10 but she couldn’t give the entire $15. She went on to say that the person who publishes the website made a mistake and CVS can’t afford the entire mistake. I wasn’t pushy, but if I didn’t keep the conversation going, she would have led me to believe that she could do nothing. After talking for a few minutes, then she gave me the money. Good luck for those of you who printed the ad but haven’t tried to redeem it!
Brenda
Can U get the $3 CVS coupon for the OFF anywhere else?? Was it in a paper ad? I can’t get it to print. Any suggestions?
Kelly
Hi guys!
I’m new to CVS shopping. Does anyone know… if you buy two or three different items that get ECBs in the same transaction, are the ECBs lumped together on your receipt or do they print out separately on the receipt? Thanks! :)
Janey
They will all lump together on the same receipt according to the number of items you purchase. So for example, if you’re buying something that earns $3 in ECB’s and you buy all 3 in the same transaction then you’d get one $9 ECB.
Deanna
As a heads up, I don’t know if this applies to all the CVS’ but the ones in my area have another unadvertised deal. Buy $20 of Aveeno Baby Products get $10 in ECB’s.
Laura
Deanna – I think the Aveeno deal works with any Aveeno products, not just Aveeno baby products. I saw a sign @ my local CVS underneath the new Aveeno shampoo/conditioners that advertised $10 ECBs wyb $20 worth of any Aveeno products.
On another topic – has anyone checked CVS Today recently? The Pampers deal is STILL posted there! Let me know if it doesn’t work for you and I’ll post a link to a screenshot if necessary.
Deanna
Thanks Laura! That’s awesome, I have some Aveeno Nourish coupons I can then use to mix with the baby products, yay :).
