What?! No deals this week? I'm going into the ad thread and pulling some out!
These is a scenario from the weekly thread. Thanks Mama22qts!
$4.99 x 5 = $24.95 ( I don't need paper towels or duracell)
minus $5 man Q
= $19.95
minus ECB $10.00
ttl=$9.95 for .22/roll.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Here are some scenarios from the monthly thread. Thanks Jennifer6183!
Citrucel soft chews 60 ct - $11.49 ($5 ECB)
Bausch & Lomb Alaway .34 oz drops - $12.99 ($4 ECB)
Murine Earigate 3.3 oz. - $16.99 ($7 ECB)
Arnicare 2.6 oz. gel - $8.99 ($5 ECB)
Hopefully we'll get some sale prices during one of the 4 weeks to make these deals worth it!!
Also, the 500 ct. CVS cotton swabs were $3.29 at my store.... so I think I'll do:
(2) CVS Bandages @ 1.99 = 3.98 (Limit is 2)
(2) CVS Cottonswabs @ 3.29 = 6.58
=========
Total: $10.56
minus $3/$10 CVS Q from printable scanners
=========
=$7.56
Then earn $3.98 ECB for the bandages & $4 ECB for the CVS cotton swabs
=========
= 0.42 Overage
Thanks kacey28!

Not sure if both the Glade Qs will work. I read somewhere else they went through fine. If not, I'll just omit them. Should work up not too very different.

I'm new to this, gonna do my first run Tuesday morning on the way to the mall... But here is my plan for that trip:
Transaction #1:

2 Dawn Dishsoap for 2.00
Total 15.98 less
$4 Fusion coupon
$1 Secret coupon
$.25 Dawn coupon
Bringing my total down to 10.73 +tax
Total OOP = 11.65 approx and $6 ECB earned
Trans #2
Crest Toothpaste for 1.77
2 Pampers Baby Wipes for 2.99 each
2 Ozarka Water for 1.00 each
Total is 9.75 less
.75 Crest coupon
$2 Pampers coupon
$1 Ozarka coupon
New Total is $6 +tax
Use $6 ECB from earlier
Total OOP is $.51 approx
Does this sound good for a first time CVS trip???
