CVS Scenarios - week of 2/27

There seem to be a few free and money-maker deals, as well as some deals on things that I could use a restock on. Some of my coupons expire tomorrow, so I definitely need to try for an early week trip to CVS.

Transaction #1
1 - Crest ProHealth Rinse
1 - Crest Satin Floss

-$1 Crest ProHealth Rinse mfg coupon (there was one last month for the smaller size)
-$.75 Satin floss mfg coupon

Total $4.83 OOP, earn $6.58 in ECBs.

Transaction #2
2 - Oral B Cross Action Power Toothbrushes
1 - Kashi Go Lean

-$3 Oral B Cross Action Power Toothbrush mfg coupon
-$3 Oral B Cross Action Power Toothbrush mfg coupon
-$1 Kashi Mfg coupon (or print one here)

Total $8, pay with $6.58 in ECBs and $1.42 OOP. Earn $6 ECBs.

Transaction #3
2 - Dove Shampoo/Conditioner
1 - Dove Deodorant
1 - Vaseline Lotion
1 - Kashi Go Lean

-$1 Dove Shampoo/Conditioner mfg coupon
-$1 Dove Shampoo/Conditioner mfg coupon
-$2 Dove Deodorant mfg coupon
-$5.79 Vaseline Free mfg coupon
-$1 Kashi mfg coupon (or print one here)

Total $7.50, pay with $6 ECBs and $1.50 OOP. Earn $5 and $2 ECBs.

Transaction #4
1 - Revitalens Multi-Purpose Solution
1 - Arizona Tea, gallon

Total $7.98, pay with $7 in ECBs and $.98 OOP. Earn $5.99 ECBs.

In these four transactions, you would have purchased $47.85 in product for only $8.73 OOP, with $5.99 ECBs remaining to roll, a savings of about 84%.

In addition to the above, I need to see what the Nexxus Products are priced at. I have two $3 coupons from recently received samples, so the spend $20 get $10 ECB deal could work out to allow me to get $20 in product for a net of about $4. Not too bad from my perspective. I just don't know whether that will be two items or more and how much over $20 I will have to spend to qualify.

For the trip, your total would be $5.75 OOP, with $5 in ECBs to roll, for $45.86 in product. A savings of about 89%. Of course, I broke two "rules" - I had too many transactions and my OOP was over $5 - but I still think it is a great set of scenarios for minimal OOP.
