There are a lot of abbreviations used when it comes to couponing and deals. Let me help you decode it all!
What does it mean when you see that a deal is a “money maker” or results in a “profit”?
Here’s one way to explain it:
Toothpaste at CVS is $2.00. You get $2.00 ECBs back when you purchase it. If you use a $1 coupon when you buy it, you will pay $1.00 for the toothpaste. but you will receive $2.00 back for buying it. Which means you just made $1.00 for buying a product!
Also, you can encounter this with a rebate. If you buy a $5 product and use a $1 coupon, you’ll pay $4 for the product. If there is a $5 rebate for the product that you send off for, then you will get back $1 more than you spent!
