ExtraCare Reminders

Synopsis

This script will send CVS ExtraCare coupon reminders to [OmniFocus][6764-001], [iCloud Reminders][6764-002], [Things for Mac][6764-003], or [DueApp][6764-004]. It includes SQLite database support for tracking previously imported coupons and will set task name, due date, start date, and a note

This script performs the following actions:

Logs into [CVS mobile][6764-005] web
Scans the ExtraCare page for active coupons on your card/account
Checks coupons against the database for previously imported coupons
Sends every new coupon to the task manager of your choice

Usage

$ extracare2of
$ Looking for coupons...
$ ----
$  Title: 10% off skincare products
$  - Due Date: 8/10/2013
$  - Start Date: 8/1/2013
$  - Note: Reedemable in-store only

Installation

Todo

Parse ExtraBucks... I need to wait for CVS to send me some before I can figure out the right regular expression
Handle deals that require action, i.e., activate coupon via web

Note: This is for paper coupons only. The actual coupons are on your CVS receipts. This script merely sets reminders for you to use them.
