Black Friday 2012 Drugstore Sale Round-Up


I want to thank everyone for the comments/tweets/emails about the upcoming Black Friday beauty deals at CVS, Rite Aid and Walgreens. For newer readers, I want to let you know that I always do a special Black Friday Drugstore Roundup, in addition to a separate non-drugtore Black Friday/Cyber Monday post which you can view right here. But if you see anything going on at the drugstore that I have not covered in this post, please please leave a comment below and let us know (and thank you!).

There are LOTS of fantastic drugstore beauty offers this year (better than any other year that I can remember) so I wanted to get this post up ASAP so that you can have more time to plan your strategy! This year we have LOTS of opportunities to score makeup, nail color, haircare, etc. for just pennies, OR FREE, after rewards. In fact, I tried to put what I consider the best deals at the top of each section below, and I also included some great candle deals in these listings since I know there are some fellow candle fanatics around here! It will take a while, but please read through these listings carefully--I don't want you to miss anything!

Drugstore Black Friday 2012 Round-Up

  5. Remind me again which stores have the early test market sale starts? Rite Aid I know, but I can't remember if CVS or Walgreens do it too, and I don't want to herd the kids out today for nothing! :) In SoCal, if that helps, tho I think the schedule is the same as SD?

  6. Not sure which regions are test markets for CVS and Walgreens, but if you'd like to know if your area runs sales earlier than the rest of the country, why don't you go to the retailer's website and pull up the weekly ad for your region? If the weekly sales don't run from Sunday to Saturday, that would mean your sale dates are different than the rest of the country.

    And yep, the rite aid test market is SD, OC and LA. :)

    1. When checking the local Rite Aid circular online, it lists new ads good starting Sunday, even though they actually change Friday morning. :( It's all right, I'll head out later anyway and check. I want my free Carmex! lol

  7. Does anyone know about target polishes/etc?

  8. at my walgreens they were separating l'oreal cosmetics for anyone that wanted to take advantage of the black friday sales, they were gonna be on sale for $6.49 but i'm not sure limits of RR or anything cause she wasn't specific

    ReplyDelete
  9. Limit 6 on the Revlon Lip EB that begins Thursday at CVS. (G has the specifics above.)

    ReplyDelete
  10. Ooo, so walgreens is bringing back register rewards for black friday? I admit that those totally draw me in more than the new points system they're using. Are there limits on those deals? Looks like CVS is the place for lip butters and Wags for the SL lipsticks/glosses.

    ReplyDelete
  11. I don't know if this was posted already being that I tried to read through and make sure I wasn't being redundant, but I just went to the Walgreens in Baton Rouge and they are having a BOGO 50% on the Wet 'N Wild products and they are also selling the single Color Icon eyeshadows for $.99! Needless to say that I went berserk. LOL!

  12. Anyone check their emails and got a $4 off $20 purchase coupon from CVS? I checked my email recently and got this coupon and it expires 11/26/12. The term and conditions on the coupon does not exclude sales or promotion items so I assume we ca use it on the current and upcoming sale deals at CVS. Just thought I'd share that infomation with everyone.

  14. What about Walgreens and WNW? The thing is that the CVS in Florida don't carry WNW and there aren't Rite Aids in Florida either, I tried finding some when I had trouble with the Be Jeweled line and there weren't any. Unless, the Buy 1 Get 1 Half Off sale is all month at Walgreens. (We had that sale at the beginning of the month for members and it was hard hitting $35 when I had the$10 off coupon with all the WNW products I got. XD)

    ReplyDelete
  15. Any interesting reports of today's stops? Heading to my rite aid in a bit..
