CVS Scenarios - week of 1/3

Maybe it is because I have such a full stock pile on many items, but there aren't many deals that make me feel like rushing out in the cold to get. Or maybe, it's that I don't get many of the coupons anymore. The paper I get that always had all of the good Red Plum coupons in it no longer carries Red Plum, they go out in the mail to local residents and since I am not "local", I simply lose out. I built my scenarios only with the coupons I had available. Some of the other deals could be great if you have more coupons.

Transaction #1
1 - GE Smart Energy Bulb
2 - Nivea Body Wash

-$1 GE Mfg coupon
-$3 $3/2 Nivea Body Wash mfg coupon
-$1 Nivea Body Wash Mfg coupon

Total $12.96 OOP. Earn $2 and $5 ECBs.

Transaction #2
2 - Colgate Toothpaste
1 - Colgate Toothbrush

-$.75 Colgate Toothpaste Mfg coupon
-$1 Colgate Toothpaste Mfg coupon
-$.75 Colgate Toothbrush Mfg coupon

Total $5.49. Pay with $5 ECB from Transaction #1 and $.49 OOP. Earn $2 and $1 ECBs.
