Got CF 5% and CFF 10% CB. Everything else 20% extracare pass CB.
Is the extracare pass thing only for online purchases? Don’t see it saying that on the offer but I was wondering if a purchase in-store would trigger the offer since I assume you could still sign up for it in store?
I received a “5% cash back, $2.50 cash back maximum” on my Chase Freedom Unlimited. Along with the 3x I get on its Drugstores category, this will be a nice pickup for the month.
Mine is only 5% back on 2 out of 7 cards. None on the rest.
Can stack with Rakuten’s 5% cash back for in-store purchases.
I’m seeing 2% cb for instore, still a nice find
Now it shows 10% for me on Rakuten for in-store.
mine is 20% off Extracare pass at cvs. I swear this said 20% off at CVS a few weeks ago.
For non- gift card purchases I just received an Ibotta offer for 6% cashback at CVS. So if you stack it with this offer and the credit card has drug stores as a bonus category you can do quite well on a large purchase.
In addition to the $6, my Ibotta has a CVS in store bonus for $5 when you make 2 separate purchases. Instead of ringing items up in one purchase, it may make sense to split them.
FYI I used this offer on my CFF over the weekend, and after waiting for 5 minutes for the one cashier working to try and convince someone to sign up for the new Extracare monthly thing, she directed us to the self checkout, I immediately asked if gift cards could be rung up there, was told yes. There seems to be some amount that it has to be under, but my fixed $50 Home Depot GC worked and activated fine.
I think that it’s $200 or more that has to be done by the cashier.
Not sure if this is a new round, or I’m late, but on my WF Active Cash card, I have Earn 10% cash back on your CVS purchase, with a $5.00 cash back maximum.
Expires 6/19
P2 has 5%
I have this offer on multiple CFF cards but it’s 5% instead of 10%. It’s possible that others were targeted for 10% though.
Citi offers was only 2% but managed to make it worthwhile on some Amazon gift cards (most of these offers cap at $100 spend so didn’t want to do Visas with purchase fee). Managed to stack:
5% Custom cash (drug stores)
5% Rakuten card link
2% Citi merchant offer
2% Ibotta
Many of these say no gift cards, I loaded $99.97 to be safe and all paid out. For a second purchase Ibotta was only offering $.25 for a receipt instead of 2% so I ended up with ~12.2% off instead of 14%. Rakuten has one more use allowed and while I do consider 10% off Amazon credit worthwhile I might wait and see if Ibotta or other offers improves before statement close approaches.
