2010-09-10 -- 3 Cents

Wowie.  One of my lowest purchase totals ever.  Sadly, this transaction also includes a screw-up on my part. I forgot to hand over $1.75 worth of store coupons linked to this card.  Arggggh.  I could have kept some additional ECB for future transactions had I used all my coupons.  At least, the two coupons do not expire for another week, so I may be able to still use them.

I began with 11.49ECB on Card1 for Household1.

My total went significantly negative, reaching a MINUS 91 cents.  When addining in the 94 cents of local tax, the total out-of-pocket came to THREE CENTS.

I had begun with 11.49ECB, spent all of them, and earned back 5.99ECB (4.00ECB for Hydro and 1.99ECB for the High Octane Chews).  Plus, as noted earlier, I forgot to use my $1.00 Off Any Two CVS Napkins and my $0.75 Off Any Three Musketeers Bar.  Oh well.

I now have 5.99ECB for Card1.
