I’m Arin, a mama of two and a stay-at-home mom living just outside the Chicago suburbs. With over a decade of blogging under my belt, I’ve turned my love for interiors into a passion for curating unique finds that make a house feel like home. Whether it’s styling cozy spaces or hunting down the perfect pieces, creating a warm, inviting home is my happy place!
CVS Extra Big Deals often align with seasonal needs. Cold/flu remedies in winter or sunscreen in summer, making it easier to stock up when it’s necessary! CVS often tailors deals based on your shopping habits, ensuring that the promotions are relevant and valuable. They also have amazing rewards programs that allow you to get ‘CVS ExtraBucks’ just for shopping! I had $10 in my app the other day!
There’s nothing better than scoring amazing beauty and holiday products on sale at CVS! Whether it’s festive decor, gift sets or my favorite beauty essentials (hair care, nails, eyelashes, etc). These items generally tend to be pricey, so finding them on sale is always my preference!
I find that CVS always has unique one-off gifts that I’ve never seen at other stores. Candy, snacks and decor tend to come home with me around this time of year! These are often included with CVS Extra Big Deals so prices align with my budget! Great options for class parties, and beyond.
Personally, I like to shop in store to make sure I’m taking full advantage of CVS ExtraBucks and Extra Big Deals. For example: I recently purchased a nail polish advent calendar for $12.99, but they had a promotion going on that resulted in me getting $9 in ExtraBucks just for purchasing the item. That’s basically free.
