Not sure if I'm posting this in the correct spot or not.  I've checked the forum and did not see these specifics listed.  The manager at the CVS store in Somersworth NH mentioned a couple of shopping tips and said I could mention them to the HTSFF group.  Whoever is responsible for the CVS posts may want to double-check this with their contact.

The ECBs were always accepted up to 30 days past their expiration date but now for a temporary time, they wil be accepted up to 6 months past their expiration date.  I asked how "temporary" this is and she did not know.  She felt it would be for a substantial period of time. 

Also, CVS accepts Rite Aid coupons on purchases.

This fact (I believe) is standard, the weekly deals which begin on Sunday are posted in the store on Saturdays.  As soon as they are posted, the deal is in effect.  So you'd be able to buy the sale item on Saturday at the Sunday price.  She said to be sure and watch the items ring in, sometimes they are not updated yet in the computer. 

ECB's being accepted past their expiration date varies. I know that my local stores will, but I also know a few other HTSFFers have been told no more than 3 days expired, or no expired ones at all. Check with your local store to be sure.

My CVS will not accept Rite Aid coupons, YMMV on that one!

The next week sales are usually posted by Saturday 6pm (in the computer et al). My CVS will price adjust an item on next weeks sale as soon as they have the signs posted. However, YMMV on that, so I recommend waiting until after 6pm if you want to shop both week sales. Keep in mind that when an item is on sale both weeks, the better price is usually the one that rings up (especially important if you want to use a BOGO coupon with a BOGO sale). I have used both weeks sales to my advantage when I have a $/$$ coupon.
