2010-06-07 -- $1.98 Quickie

I didn't really have time to map out a strategy, but once I heard that recepts were generating an extremely valuable 72-hour "Save $5 on $15 Purchase" coupon, I raced to CVS and made a simple purchase.  Of course, the purchase also generated an ECB too.

I began with 9.00ECB.

Regular Price:
0.99 Cheetos (4oz)
0.99 Cheetos (4oz)

1.98 TOTAL Regular Prices

Sales Price:
0.99 Cheetos (4oz)
0.99 Cheetos (4oz)

1.98 TOTAL Sales Price

NO COUPONS OR DISCOUNTS USED

My out-of-pocket came to $1.98 (no tax). I received 1ECB, bringing my ECB total to 10.00ECB.

And, when the receipt printed out, I had a nice $5OFF$15 coupon to use within 72 hours.  It wasn't the best money-maker around, but now I can plot further transactions for the week.
