How CVS Extrabucks Rolling Works

The best way to maximize savings at CVS is to separate your transactions to "roll" your Extrabucks. That means you do a deal, get the Extrabucks back, then use those Extrabucks on your next transaction to lower your out of pocket cost on the next deal -- which then generates more Extrabucks. Rinse and repeat.

Extrabuck Rewards are coupons that print at checkout when you purchase participating products at CVS. These rewards give you dollars off your next purchase.

Quick App Legend

Before you dive in, here is what each icon means. You will see these throughout every deal breakdown on DealSeek.

🟠 Ibotta -- Submit the rebate after purchase (Sign up for Ibotta)

🔵 Fetch -- Scan your receipt in the Fetch app (Sign up for Fetch)

Buy (2) Dial Hand Soaps at $3.39 each

Rebate Apps You Need for These Deals

Ibotta -- Powers the Therabreath rebate in Transaction 5.

New to CVS Couponing?

If this is your first time rolling Extrabucks at CVS, here is your quick starter guide:

Sign up for ExtraCare in the CVS app first. It is free and you cannot earn Extrabucks without it.

Clip every digital coupon before you shop. Open the CVS app, browse the Deals tab, and tap "Send to Card" on every coupon listed in the breakdown -- they will not auto-apply otherwise.

Check your personalized CVS Store Coupons. These are the Best Customer Bonus coupons that print or appear in your app based on your purchase history. The Dial $3 off 2 in this breakdown is a Best Customer Bonus example.

Do the transactions in order. The whole point of a roll is using each transaction's Extrabucks on the next one. Skip the order and the math breaks.

Watch your Extrabuck expiration dates. Extrabucks typically expire 30 days after they print. Roll them as soon as possible to avoid losing them.

Pay with a different tender if needed. Some CVS shoppers use a small running balance on a CVS gift card so they always have a way to cover the small out of pocket costs without dipping into a credit card every transaction.

Tips for This Week's CVS Run

Six transactions in one trip is intense -- pace yourself. Have your phone open to the CVS app the entire time. Confirm each Extrabuck prints before moving to the next transaction.

Print receipts will track your roll. If an Extrabuck does not print, walk to customer service before continuing -- sometimes a printer issue is the culprit and they can rescue the Extrabuck on the spot.

The Dial Best Customer Bonus is the wildcard. If your account does not have it, skip Transaction 4 entirely. The roll still works without it.

Therabreath plus Ibotta is the cleanest free play. $5 Extrabuck offsets the price, $3 Ibotta and $3 new Extrabuck come back -- net positive on rebates.
