*For the Lady Speed Stick, I scanned one b/c I knew some were on clearance, however, they were all in a row that was tagged $1.99. The clearance rows were empty. It threw off my plan, so I grabbed 2 more. However 1 was truly $1.99! Nothing is different about the color of the stick, wording... but the UPC IS different!

Another thing I wasn't planning was the bogo taking off the full $3.99, so I opted not to use a 2nd coupon, although I probably could have. But after recalculating it would have been $1.07 w/out using any ECBs and all of my ecbs are over $2 and I didn't want to loose their full value.
Anyway... now comes the strange part. $6 ecb did not print! Cashier couldn't figure out why, she pulled out her calculator and added everything up... well over $12.
Then she thought maybe it was the clearance deo, but upon closer inspection my receipt reads:
Mennen, Spend $15, Get $5
Amount Toward Reward $2.82
Amount Needed to Earn $12.18
Colgate, Spend $12, Get $6
Amount Toward Reward $10.73
Amount Needed to Earn $1.27
Soo.. the clearace deo's went towards to Mennen deal, which isn't in the ad until the week of 2/12 (and says Excludes Clearance!). Everything was signed for Spend $12, Get $6. Cashier force printed the $6 ECB.
