2010-02-18 -- $1.10

So it's time for another transaction. This time, I am shopping for my second household, using my second card, which has not been used for the new weekly ad deals.

I start out with just $9.00ECB and use one of the non-card-specific $2OFF complimentary coupons obtained over the weekend after finding expired sunscreen at a CVS in the Bay Area. And yesterday, there was once again a $5OFF$20 coupon in the SFChronicle online version.

Starting with 9.00ECB.
