The crest prohealth looks good to me

$2.50 x10 = $25.00
Minus the 3 off 2 es coupon
Minus 10 prohealth $1.00

Looks like just tax outta pocket with a 20.oo RR coming back????

[happysoul]

I haven't thought mine through yet but something like this. First two transactions need cheap filler.

$12.5 five Cascade gelpacs
$3.98 two charmin freshmates
$5 two crest TP
=21.48
-2.50 five cascade manuqs
-2 two charmin qs
-3 crest tp esr
-2 crest manu q
-10 Aveeno Cat
=1.98 +tax oop get $20 in RRs

7.00 two swiffer refills
2.5 one cascade gel pac
3.98 two charmin freshmates
10 four crest tp
=23.48
-1 swiffer manu q
-0.5 cascade q
-2 two charmin qs
-6 crest tp ESR q
-4 crest manu q
=9.98 use aveeno cat to pay

Then since I still have 16 charmin qs and 14 crest qs I will make it simple and get something like this in three transactions. I want to avoid zero oop transactions so I am mixing the crest TP transactions with charmin ones.
9.95 five charmin tubs
10 four crest tp
=19.95
-5 five charmin qs
-6 crest esr
-4 crest manu q
=4.95 + tax oop get $20 RR

That leaves me one charmin q and two crest ones. I will probably do a small one because I want some Mr.Cleaner floor cleaner
2.5 one floor cleaner
2.5 cascade gel pac
1.99 one charmin tub
5 two crest tp
=11.99
-0.5 Mr clean q
-0.5 cascade q
-1 charmin q
-3 crest esr q
-2 crest manu q
=4.99 get $10 RR

So I should end up with
7 cascade gel pacs
20 charmin wipe tubs
two swiffer refills
one floor cleaner
20 TP tubes.
spend around $22 + tax oop and get $110 in RRs. Is that possible?
I need to print this plan and make sure it is right. Anyone spot any mistakes? or ways to maximize gain?

REPS to PamJ2000
Couldn't we roll our Aveeno $10RR into the Crest/PG $20RR if they enforce the limits on the $3/2 ESR? It would look like this...

9 - Crest toothpaste $2.50 ($22.50)
9 - $1/1 mfg (-$9)
1 - $3/2 ESR (-$3)
Total $10.50
Use $10RR from Aveeno = $.50 OOP & earn $20RR

Also, not sure if this was stated here (can't remember), but the Zantac 150 cool mint tablets are $3.99 & you get a $3RR...there is a $5 IP coupon on Walgreen's own site good on ANY Maximum Strength Zantac 150 Cool Mint Tablets!

Aquafresh Advance is on 7day coupon for $1.99...there's a $2/1 IP out there, making this FREE.

Here is the scenario I think I'm going to try...
9 - Crest toothpaste $22.50
1 - Zantac 150 $3.99
1 - Venus Embrace $9.99
3 - Aquafresh Advance toothpaste $5.97
Total $42.45

Use
9 - $1/1 Crest mfg (-$9)
1 - $3/2 Crest ESR (-$3)
1 - $5/1 IP Zantac (-$5)
3 - $2/1 IP Aquafresh (-$6)
Total OOP $19.45 (assuming they only allow the $3/2 ESR once)
use $10RR from Aveeno
$9.45 OOP PLUS earn $29RR ($20RR Crest, $3RR Zantac & $6RR Venus) ***

***could be better if they let you use more $3/2 ESR and/or if there is a Venus Embrace coupon out there!

Okay, I'm new and have a question.

I have the Free Any One Oral B Pro-Health Brush, x5/31/08 from the Beauty in Bloom book. I also have a Free Pro-Health toothbrush or toothpaste by mail, when you buy any one CrossAction Pro-Health toothbrush. So, here's what I'm thinking:

$20.00 8x$2.50
$ 3.49 one rinse
$ 4.49 one pro-health brush
$27.98
$ 2.38 tax
$30.36
-$13.50 IVC $3/2
-$ 8.00 m/q on paste
-$ .75 m/q on rinse
-$ 4.49 on brush
=$3.62 OOP get $20 RR
-$4.49 mail in rebate

means you make about 46 cents after the stamp.

Is this right? :shrug7: And would it just be easier to do it the other way?

[PMFan]

you'd only have $12 in IVC (8 pastes so 4 x $3/2 IVC)

[smughis]

one of the charmin scenarios
3 charmin freshmates 3 1.99=6
minus $1/1 charmin from p&g if you got them =3
6-3=3 get $4 rr profit of $1

What coupons do I need? Where can I find them in the insert (what date?).

PG Insert 4/6 or trade

What's the best way to go?

Read this thread carefully, you can learn different scenarios and see which one works for you best.

(several of each).

There's another P&G insert due out on 5/4, so you're sure to find something you want in the deal. Don't feel bad- this just takes practice. You'll be an old pro in no time!! Hang in there.
