CVS recently officially released their coupon policy. Finally! I have asked for this at the stores with no luck. I would suggest you print this and bring it with you when you shop at the store. This would be helpful if you get a cashier that doesn't know the policies well. :)
Click here to see their official coupon policy. I've typed out their policy below and explained a little further where needed.
GENERAL GUIDELINES
- CVS/pharmacy does not accept expired coupons
- Coupons and their face value cannot be exchanged for cash or gift cards.
- Competitor coupons are not accepted at CVS/pharmacy.
- CVS/pharmacy does not accept coupons for items not carried in our stores.
- CVS/pharmacy does not currently accept coupon bar code images displayed on a smartphone, iPhone, Droid, etc...
- The total value of the coupons may not exceed the value of the transaction. Sales tax must be paid if required by state law.
i.e. you will not get money back if your coupons are for more than the transaction amount....bummer :)
- Certain CVS/pharmacy coupons may be subject to state sales tax rules similar to third-party manufacturer coupons and sales tax may be charged on pre-coupon price
- Third-party manufacturer coupons are coupons issued by a third party and sales tax may be charged on pre-coupon price.
- Language at the bottom of CVS/pharmacy coupons provides specific coupon acceptance rules.
- Any coupon offer not covered in these guidelines will be accepted at the discretion of CVS/pharmacy management.
- CVS/pharmacy will accept manufacturer coupons for an item that is on sale.
- CVS/pharmacy will not accept percent off coupons for sale and promotional items.
- In the event that any item's price is less than the value of the coupon, CVS/pharmacy will accept the coupon only to the price of the item. CVS/pharmacy does not provide cash back in exchange for any coupons.
MULTIPLE COUPONSIf you purchase an item that is priced at $.75 and use a coupon for $1.00 off, the coupon value will be adjusted down to $.75.
- CVS/pharmacy accepts one third-party manufacturer coupon and applicable CVS/pharmacy coupon(s) for the purchase of a single item, unless prohibited by either coupon offer.
You can stack a manufacturer coupon with a CVS coupon on the same item.
- The number of third-party manufacturer coupons used in a transaction may not exceed the number of items in the transaction.
- The coupon amount will be reduced if it exceeds the value of the item after other discounts or coupons are applied. (For example, a $5.00 coupon for a $4.99 item will result in a $4.99 coupon value).
- CVS/pharmacy accepts multiple identical coupon for multiple qualifying items as long as there is sufficient stock to satisfy other customers, unless a limit is specified. Management reserves the right to limit the quantity of items purchased.
It is up to the store's discretion if they want to limit the number of a specific item purchased. This is how they will try to keep from having the shelves cleared.
- CVS/pharmacy reserves the right to process coupons in any order.
- CVS/pharmacy accepts valid internet/print at home coupons containing a barcode.
- CVS/pharmacy will not accept reproductions or rebates.
