Then, I may have to deal with the fact that my stores won't have enough bags......just doesn't seem worth it to me right now.  | A) You will only pay sales tax on (24) of the (48) bags - you will NOT be charged sales tax on the amount you SAVE through a CVS sale.
(48) X $2.19 = $105.12
(24) X -$2.19 = $52.56 X 8% (my tax rate) = $4.20
B) You would have to pay $20.80 for coupons in order to BREAK EVEN AFTER your 24 bags of LifeSavers
C) To figure out how much tax you'll pay in any scenario, use this formula:
Taxable Item Total
(-) CVS B1G1 Sale
(-) CVS Q's
(-) ECB's Used
= NEW Taxable Total
(x) Tax Rate
(-) Manu Q's
= Total OOP
