This is a challenge created by kingdomfirstmom. The idea is that you walk into a CVS store with $5 in your pocket and no ECB's, and you want to walk out with as much as possible, using 3 transactions or less. Of course, if you already have ECB's, you could potentially walk out without paying anything! If you don't know how to shop at CVS, check out my post here.
Transaction #1
Buy 3 Promax bars @ $1.66 ea. -- Get $5 ECB's
**Hint: Some websites are saying there is a $1/1 Promax coupon in the 10/26 RP, but I can't find it. If you can, you can save $3.
Total spent OOP = $5
Total ECB's received = $5
Transaction #2
Buy 1 Brut @ $3.49 -- Get $3 ECB's
Buy 1 Powerade 32 oz. @ $1.59 -- Get $1.59 ECB's
Use $5 ECB's in Transaction #1
Total spent OOP = $0.08
ECB's received = $4.59
Transaction #3
Buy 1 Theraflu Warming Relief @ $5.99 -- Get $2 ECB's
Use $2/1 coupon in 10/19 SS
Use mail-in rebate from same 10/19 SS to get $3.99 back!
Buy 1 Rolaids @ $2.29 -- Get $2 ECB's
Use $1/1 coupon in 10/5 RP
Use $4.59 ECB's from Transaction #2
Total OOP = $0.29
Total ECB's receved = $4
Total spent OOP = $5.37 - $3.99 mail-in rebate = $1.38
Total ECB's Received = $4
Total purchased = $18.36
