How to use % off coupons at CVS — beginner must watch 🙌🏼
Wondering how to use those percent-off CVS coupons the right way? In this video, I’ll break down exactly how percent-off coupons work at CVS, including what they apply to, what they don’t, and how to maximize your savings — even with sale items, ECBs, and manufacturer coupons in the mix!
What you’ll learn:
What CVS percent-off coupons really mean
What items they work on
How to stack them with other deals
When to use them to get the biggest savings
Real-life examples and receipts!
These coupons can be powerful, but they’re often misunderstood — I’ve got you covered with clear tips, beginner-friendly strategies, and my go-to tricks for using them like a pro.
💫Pro tip:
The CVS 98% Rule allows you to earn ExtraBucks on spend-based promotions without hitting the exact required amount. Instead, you only need to spend 98% of the threshold for the rewards to trigger.
How It Works:
If a deal says "Spend $20, Get $5 ExtraBucks", you don’t actually have to spend $20.
You only need to spend 98% of $20, which is $19.60.
If your subtotal (before tax) is at least $19.60, the ExtraBucks should still print.
98% Threshold Breakdown for Common Deals:
Spend $10, Get ExtraBucks → Need to spend $9.80
Spend $15, Get ExtraBucks → Need to spend $14.70
Spend $20, Get ExtraBucks → Need to spend $19.60
Spend $30, Get ExtraBucks → Need to spend $29.40
Spend $40, Get ExtraBucks → Need to spend $39.20
✅ 98% rule is for in store only, won’t work on the app
✅ Works at most CVS locations, but not all‼️
✅ Only applies to “Spend $X” deals, NOT “Buy X quantity” deals.
✅ Coupons do not affect the 98% calculation—it’s based on the original price before discounts.
✅ The only way to know if it works at your store is to try it. If the ExtraBucks don’t print, you can either return the items or cancel the transaction if it doesn’t work in your favor.

I googled something about 40% off CVS coupon & your video came up. Well done! Thanks for the tips. I wish other explainer videos were as straightforward & as organized as yours. You have a very welcoming personality. Wishing you much success with your channel! (& your future savings! : ) 🤑
Love your videos! Super and helpful every time!❤❤
I mean, it's good to know how to use a coupon, but unfortunately I lost a few because I didn't know how to use them, ha ha ha. I felt a little helpless about that.
So I've become a little… How can I put it? Addicted to coupons. Yes, I love coupons. I love saving money.
So I visit a lot of places where I can get discount coupons, and I really like one called Valuecom.
The fact that my father was a penny pincher has nothing to do with this comment, I'll say that right now, ha ha ha.
This is so helpful I couldnt wrap my head around why i had a 20% off loreal product and only $0.43 came off with the coupon. I couldnt unclip it either
