$5.00 CVS Gift Card Giveaway- CLOSED

This Giveaway is closed- Thank you for entering!

I found a $5.00 CVS Gift Card on the bottom of my purse yesterday and almost threw it away because I thought that it had a zero balance on it, but I checked it and guess what? It has $5.00 on it.

I am giving it away to one lucky person who will actually appreciate it instead of losing it on the bottom of their purse for a month.

To enter, just leave a comment and if you want you can let me know if you have ever lost a gift card, Extra Care Bucks, Catalinas, cash, etc. and felt really dumb about it (I am guilty of all of the above).

The giveaway will end next Saturday and don't worry, the gift card is in a safe place and is no longer on the bottom of the abyss that is my purse.

Good Luck!

  1. I can't think of a time when I've lost any of the above, but I've come very, very close to losing EB's and think it's a matter of time. :-( thanks for sharing!

  3. Oh yes. In January, I quit my job as a teacher. As soon as I gave my notice I started slowly packing my room up. As I was haphazardly packing up my files in the desk I found 2 Gift cards. One was $25.00 and the other was $10.00. They had been given it me as a thank youu gift from another teacher. In the mountains of papers I dealt with everyday that somehow ended up there. The sad part was I had completely forgotten about them.

  5. I have never really lost any, but I did destroy some ECBs in the washer when I forgot to take them out of my pocket.

  6. I lost a visa card once. I'm pretty sure I threw it out accidentally while cleaning out my purse. I mean, it had $15 left but still - that's good money :(

  7. I really haven't lost anything of great value, but I do try to help other people. Once I was grocery shopping and notice that a couple was purchasing some pop tarts. I asked if they used coupons and the woman replied "no". I handed her (2) $1/2 for the four boxes she had and told her since they were BOGO she could get them for .75 each using those coupons. Made her day, I think she went home and started clipping.

  8. I have forgotten to spend my EB more times than I can count. I actually just let $7 of RR expire this past week!

  9. No... but I totally lose coupons or have things expire on me all the time. I had a restaurant gift card and over time the balance depleted from $40 to nothing! Sad!

  14. I have lost plenty of things, however I can't believe I used to actually throw away ECB's because I thought they were too much of a hassle!

  18. I could certainly put this gift card to good use!! I've never lost a gift card, but I'm afraid I'm guilty of letting ECBs expire. =(

  21. So far, have kept my gift cards all in one place, it helps that they live in my coupon wallet.

    Thanks for the chance to win!

  23. I am very protective of my gift cards, so I don't believe I have ever lost one. I sometimes forget to bring my coupons to the store and I always feel silly.

  29. I've lost many things to the bottom of my purse.
    Gift cards? Check.
    Extra Care Bucks? Check.
    Catalinas? check.
    cash? check.
    Coupons? check.

    Buutt...I don't feel dumb anymore. I've come to accept the fact that I'm a disorganized freak.

  44. omg, what haven't i lost?? I am always losing coupons that i've pulled to use before I even make it to the store. I usually don't realize that I've lost them until I'm already at the store about to purchase all my stuff! I found 3, THREE, gift cards from CHRISTMAS, one $50, and two $25 that I hadn't used! Seriously?? How do I forget about $100?!?!?

  50. I bought three $5 Starbucks gift cards years ago, and forgot to give them out. Of course, I lost them in my tornado of a room. About a month ago, Starbucks e-mailed me and said..."Hey, you haven't used your gift cards!"

    Apparently, I registered them online, and you can transfer balances of lost gift cards to current ones, or they can reissue them. Yay! Starbucks could have just kept their money, but they reminded me to oget some great coffee instead.
