About
Welcome! I hope you’ll find some valuable information here on stretching your dollar when shopping at CVS. As for me, I’m a financial educator, certified by the National Foundation for Credit Counseling. I teach a variety of classes covering such topics as improving your credit, saving for retirement, buying your first home, getting out of debt, saving on groceries and more.
I realized that many of my clients were spending a large percentage of their income on basic necessities. If I could help them lower their costs they would have additional money to put towards their debt or put towards meeting their goals. So I decided to create my own sites (wildforwags.com & wildforcvs.com) to help people save.
In addition to my responsibilities as an educator, I’m also a licensed Realtor in the state of Florida and a member of the National Realtors Association. I’m actively involved with various community organizations serving as a volunteer mentor with my local Domestic Violence Shelter and volunteering on the family selection committee for Habitat for Humanity.
I’m a graduate of the University of Miami with a Bachelor’s of Science Degree in Communications and Political Science and a proud alumni of the Kappa Kappa Gamma organization. I reside in Florida with some very spoiled cats!
Thanks for stopping by

Hi Christie,
I wanted to ask for your permission to copy and paste the CVS deals. I’ll acknowledge that the deals came from your website and put a link to your original post. Is that okay?
Thank you!
Sincerely,
Charmaine Baird

Hi Christie!
I wanted to ask permission to use your blog for my CVS coupon match ups! With the amount of traffic/emails I receive lately I’m not able to keep up with the demand! I will of course give you credit, and will even see about giving you a blog button as an official contributor to my blog.

Thanks so much for asking! You bet.
Wow! I missed this one as well!
Is that a coupon bag you’re holding? Thanks!
Hello there!
Writing from Cape Cod, just found your website today! I blog about saving money, and a whole bunch of other fun stuff-but I don’t do coupon match ups or daily deal leads I am a huge fan of shopping at CVS, so I decided to put your blog badge up on my blog site to help out all my readers who shop there too! Have a great day! Ashley.
Hi,
I just recently opened a group on facebook for my local city to keep up on coupons and deals and was wondering if i can also copy and paste deals from your page and refer them over here:)
Thanks

Hi Christie; found your sites through Frugal Coupon Living who I have followed since I saw her on Dr. Phil. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE how simple you make it to save big money and stock up on great products. Thank you so much. I have such an issue using IE to print or download anything but Google Chrome typically works; however, today IE linked to the schick razors but Chrome will not find them (grrrrr). any ideas?
Thank you again

Thanks Pati – try changing your zip to 77477 and see if that does it.
Hi Christie!
Love your site by the way. I had a question about the limits reached on ECB’s. Let’s say for example, there is a “spend $30 on select household items and get $10 ECB back limit 1 per household”. Is there a date that this limit ‘expires’ in which we are eligible for the next $10 ECB? This happened to me over the weekend. I went on a Saturday to purchase $30+ on toilet paper, got my $10 ECB just fine. Then thinking that if I wait till the NEXT Saturday (7 days later,) that I can purchase $30+ on select household items and get $10 ECB, but it still said ‘limit reached’ on the end of my receipt. Please advise!
Sometimes the ECB deals for Sunday start on Saturday – So my guess is when you got the deal it was for the following week, so it would still be considered in the same week. And sometimes deals go multiple weeks and never reset.
Thank you very much!!!!
Hi Christie,
I was wondering if you may have heard from any of your readers that they are no longer receiving CVS store coupons to load onto their cards? I myself have come across this for the last month. All I am getting are manufacturer coupons to load. It is such a bummer because I shop there so often and love stacking the store coupons along with my manufacturer and rewards. I called CVS and they said that its just random who gets coupons and what they give out. She claimed my account is in great standing so not sure why I stopped getting store coupons to add.
This actually happened to me, so I chose to start using my husbands card that he had not used in years. Now I am getting CVS coupons again. I basically “retired” my old card.
Hi Christie,
I read your blog every week. Thank you for all the hard work you do for people like us who like to save some money. In one of your posts for this current week’s deals at cvs you mentioned that there is a coupon for Physician’s Formula in Better Homes and Garden, Family Circle but I could not find them. I currently subscribe both magazines and I checked both of them for Physician’s Formula coupon but did not find any. Am I missing some thing? Could you please let me know which page has this coupon? Thank you very much for your help and saving me lot of money. I really appreciate it. Thank you.

Sharon Snm.
