Are you using your Green Bat Tag at CVS? Don’t know what the Green Bag Tag is?? Well then I will tell you!!
In the fall of 2009, CVS introduced their Green Bag Tag. You purchase the tag for $.99 and then attach it to a reusable bag. Each time you shop and use your own bag, they will scan the bag tag and after every 4 uses, you’ll get $1.00 Extra Care Bucks.
It’s a great deal and so much better than any other store that gives you credit for using their own bags, as far as I know. Stop & Shop will give you $.05 for each bag used and so will Target. Since we don’t normally use a LOT of bags each time we shop at CVS, it will add up faster!
You can only use the tag once per day. So if you make multiple purchases in a day, the tag will only scan once.
Just another way to get FREE Stuff from CVS!
Absolutely! I have used my Green Bag Tag 77 times since I first purchased it in late 2009. That means that I have earned $19 ECB’s just for using my reusable bag! Can’t beat that!

I loooove the CVS bag tag. I have earned alot, don’t have a recent receipt in front of me to give exact.
**TIP: I cut mine down and taped it to the back of my CVS card so both barcodes are right there and they can scan them together. I used to forget all the time, and the cashier usually forgot to ask.
Eleanor that is so AWESOME!! Nice job.
Lori GREAT idea. I forget mine a lot too, but I try real hard not to! But that would work better. Or attach it to your key chain. I’ve heard of people doing that as well.
I love the Greenbagtag, too! That’s why I wrote about this tip to save money at a bunch of stores with one convenient bag: http://considermeacynic.blogspot.com/2011/05/bag-of-infinite-savings.html
