I went to CVS in Temecula, CA. The 6×8 photo books were not in my local ad, but in the store there was a sign near the photo department. It said , “Buy one 6×8 photo book for $7.99 and get $7.99 in ECB. The sign said, “the Limit was 5.” I’m going to go through my pictures tomorrow. I did these photo books last Christmas. I think they were the best gifts I gave.

the photobooks are not in my local ad either and the cashier and i think even the manager is not aware of any ongoing sale with this.they even told me to just come back for it.

I went into CVS today (san luis obispo, ca) and they had no clue about the photo book thing. I think I am just going to try it…I have extra bucks I can use and I need a photo book…if they print they print. Has anyone tried it here?

There is also a great rebate on olay products (spent 50 get 20 back) you would need to use more that one extra buck card but it is a great deal! Love olay products!
