Today and Friday (June 4-5) all of CVS’ store brands are discounted 40 percent online only. That’s a great discount on what I consider to be one of CVS’ best deals. The prices on prescription drugs, for example, are rarely price-competitive without insurance at CVS or Walgreens. But the store brands at either pharmacy retailer are an exception. At 40 percent off already low prices, you just can’t beat the prices on over-the-counter medicines, baby wipes, dental floss, bathroom tissue made from recycled paper, lotions, and even food products. Shipping is free on orders over $50. And all CVS’ private labels are guaranteed. If you’re not happy with an item, take it back to a store for a refund, even if you purchased it online.

Too bad this sale isn’t available in the stores. Usually, the store sale on private labels is “buy one, get one at half-off” which is really only a 25 percent savings. Through Saturday, the store is not discounting its own brands but that may change Sunday.

These prices beat even Drugstore.com, which offers some good deals.

Who else is a fan or CVS or Walgreens store brands?
