I’ve been down this road before.
ReplyDeleteDon’t get too excited just yet.
If it’s the same offer I received then make sure you read the terms carefully.
Yes, it only takes 3 redemptions to earn the $5. But those redemptions are only when that 5% offer is active. So, if you shop at CVS today and then go back this weekend but the 5% bonus isn’t showing again then none of your later purchases will qualify.
And, to make things even harder, the $5 offer times out and resets. So, like me, you can actually do 2 of the 3 offers with the 5% activated. But then, when the 5% pops up again (which can be weeks later) those 2 check marks on the bonus status screen disappear. It resets, and you have to start all over again.
At best, this is a YMMV which might work for some people who get a 5% reset quickly enough to make the 3 required purchases. But I wouldn’t break your neck rushing to shop at CVS unless other offers are luring you in.
Thanks for the heads up, we shall see.
DeleteWifey figured it out!!! 🏆
ReplyDeleteHere’s what I did wrong.
I made two purchases about 3 days apart using the 5% offer. And on the bonus page I got 2 check marks, indicating that I only needed one more purchase to earn the $5.
The $5 offer did reset (or at least I think it did). But I didn’t need anything at CVS for awhile. And, more importantly, there was no “clock” or date on the bonus offer to indicate it would expire.
But, it did.
And so what I saw this week was a complete reset where it says purchases made before 8/7 are excluded.
So… since great minds think alike (🤣) Wifey came to the conclusion that we need a specific strategy to not miss out again,
So here’s what we will came up with and suggest everyone do.
Once you get the 5% offer, head to CVS as soon as you get the chance. Purchase what you like, but if there’s more than one item that qualifies buy it in a separate transaction. NOTE: we do not have our CVS cards linked to Ibotta because we want the control over how offers are submitted.
Then, simply wait for the 5% to reset and submit the next receipt for what you already purchased. If you don’t get all 3 $5 offers to rest within one week be sure all Ibotta offers have been submitted before those receipts expire. But do time them so you don’t get caught short on the $5 bonus like I did last time!
