CVS Marks Up Item $5 For ‘Sale’, Offers $5 In Extrabucks Image courtesy of "Spend $5 more than regular retail and get $5 in extrabucks! Wow!" says tipster Dave.
Dave sent us this irresistible deal from pharmacy chain CVS. You can get $5 in Extrabucks rewards currency by buying these Futuro anti-embolism stockings. Not a bad deal if you’re in the market for them, and will remember to come back and use the Extrabucks. This plan has a flaw, though: you only come out 30 cents ahead, because the sale price is $4.70 above regular retail.
“Spend $5 more than regular retail and get $5 in extrabucks! Wow!” says tipster Dave.
It’s a wonder that they still have any in stock.
