Scenario #3
5 Nabisco Crackers $10
Kleenex $.89 (use in-ad coupon)
2 Rolaids 100 ct @ $4.99 = $9.98
Dulcolax $7

Total value: $27.87

$2.50 off Nabisco (from Wags diabetes book)
$.75 off Kleenex (it's on the KMart website, but it's a manufacturer coupon)
$4 off 2 Rolaids from paper
$3 off Dulcolax from hangtag on bottle

RRs used from previous transactions: $8 Lubriderm (can't use Nabisco on Nabisco and we dont' have enough 'cost' left for the $5 Triaminic)
Out of Pocket: $4.62

Rebates: $10 Nabisco for purchase 10 products


Over 3 transactions, the value of items was $91.21, our out of pocket was $30.71 and we still have $20 in RRs to use next time...after rebates and RRs the total actual cost of these transactions was $.71. How crazy is that?!
