**monthly deals! Search for them high & low!
**Buy 3 American Greetings Cards get $3 ECB (prices start at $.99)
___________________________________________

Often when you make purchases at CVS, along with ECBs printing on your receipt, coupons also print. Last week I got some GREAT coupons. Including a $10 off $50 purchase (awesome!) and a $3 off 2 lotions (any lotion!). With the Pepsi deal this week, I planned on losing about $10 in ECBs, so I wanted to make a "$50 purchase" and lose NO MORE than that. I made a plan but had a long list of options in case they didn't have some of the items I wanted. I got a surprise afternoon off work and Jacob was with Grammy, so I went for it!

3 Mountain Dew $9 (eligible for rebate)
1 Dr.Pepper $3 (no rebate, yes ECB)
2 Tostitos Scoops $6 (eligible for rebate)
1 Lay's Classic $3 (eligible for rebate)
CVS Allergy $3.79 (free after ECB-weekly)
Kid's Throat Coolers $4.99 (free after ECB-monthly)
2 American Greeting Cards @ $.99 = $1.98
1 American Greeting Card $2.59
Lay's Dip $2.50 (for my chips!)
2 Excedrin Migraine @ $1.99 = $3.98
2 St.Ives Lotion @ $2.99 = $5.98
2 Sally Henson Nail Polish @ $1.25 = $2.50
3 Welch's Juice @ .99 = $2.97 (filler to get $50)

Total: $52.28

Coupons Used:
$10 off $50 purchase register coupon
2 - $2 off Excedrin = $3.98 (adjusted)
2 - $2 off St.Ives = $4
$3 off 2 lotion register coupon (used for St.Ives)
$2.50 off Sally Henson (this was an adjusted $3 coupon)
Used $27.96 in ECBs

Out of pocket (after taxes & ECBs) = $.84
ECBs received: $21.78 ($10 Pepsi/Frito, $3.79 CVS Allergy, $4.99 Throat Cooler, $3 American Greeting Cards)
Total Cost: $7.02 (ECBs used + OOP - ECBs received) woohoo!
