Reader MandM pointed out that the new $5 off Olay when you buy Secret coupon in the 10/31 P&G does not have any size restrictions.
So she purchased a travel size Secret for $1 and used the $5 coupon toward the body wash- which is priced at $7 this week. So the total after coupon was $3 and she got $3 in ECBs back= Free.
I don’t know if this will work for everyone but I suppose you can try it!
Thanks MandM.
It worked for me in the Bay Area, but the Secret was $1.49. Now if I can find boy Oral B Stages toothbrushes.
Wow that is so cool–can’t wait to try it!

Look what I found! A $10 MIR for buying $30 worth of Olay and Secret!
hey it works I just tried this morning. I am in northern in ca! go get it 🙂
The rebate states that it is only good until 10/12/10 Bummer!
worked for me on the east coast too 😀 deodorant was $1.49 tho
I did the same thing yesterday morning (but it was $1.49 for me, too) and it worked fine! Coupon didn’t beep or anything.
It worked for me in Southern CA and the secret was 1.49. I have noticed that all the CVS prices that I have for travel items are 50 cents more than what all the blogs say, so I always have to figure that in.

PLUS – I’m wondering if the $3 off any $15 cosmetic purchase (your choice) will work? It talks about the Q on page 10 of my Northern CA ad. Then it would be a $2 money maker! YEA!
I haven’t checked the prices out for these items at my store. I do know that when it comes to buying items at regular non-sale prices, there are differences just like the ones seen ($1 vs. $1.49) between the store 1 block away from me and the store that is 5 minutes from me. So even just 30 blocks down the same street in my area, I see these differences. Thanks for all the feedback as I am hoping to do this deal too! I am in San Diego.
Great idea Robin! I will test that out and see if it works 🙂 I wanted to get the free toothbrushes I posted anyway.
Robin and Charlene, I think I am looking at the Q you are talking about and it appears to be a free Olay ribbons when you buy Pro-X facial moisturizer only, which is $24.99, not $10. Am I reading this wrong?
Nope Amy I am just pulling the coupons now and you are exactly right. I wonder if they can make these any more complicated? 😉
Wikes! I was given this “deal” and hadn’t even pulled my Q’s yet. I’ll look today and maybe they have a smaller Pro-X facial moisturizer! 🙂
No smaller moisturizers, but I must say the Mandarin Oil Olay body wash smells so….good! I HEART couponing!!! Love saving so much money….and stockpiling….:) Thanks Charlene!!!
I used the Secret coupon ($5.00) too, but I also combined it with a BOGO free on Olay (up to $6.00). I got $11 off of two and got ECBs also!
What items do you need to buy to get $11.00 off Laura? TIA!
I went to 3 CVS’s today and all of them had a Secret travel size in the travel size aisle for $1.49, however they also had a small Secret in the REGULAR deoderant aisle that was $2/2 and 1 is only $1. It was actually bigger than the travel size and only $1!!
Hi!
Well, I did the CVS deal the other day and got the $3ECB. It was getting late, so I headed home and only bought (2) deals.
So, today I happened to be at Target yesterday and the Oil of Olay body washes were $5.44ea., but I didn’t have my q’s. So, I went back today and they are all price cut for 5.04, plus the travel secret was .97.
So, I bought (4) body washes and (4) travel deodorants and CA tax = $6.31. Good enough deal for me. 🙂
