Updated Scenarios!

Alright. Let's try this again. My local CVS should let me use one of each Playskool coupon per transaction and one 3/15 cvs per transaction. I hope. I have done this in the past. I have a great night manager who usually does great for me!

#1
1 Playskool diaper @ 10.99
1 Playskool Wipe @ 2.50
I revlon Nail Enamel @ 3.99

Use 2/1 Revlon
Use 1/1 wipes
Use 2/1 diapers
Use 3/15 CVS

Total should be 9.48 plus tax.
Use 5 ECB and pay 4.48 plus tax oop.
Get back 3 ECB from Revlon. Total towards Playskool deal is 13.49.

#2
1 Playskool diaper @ 10.99
1 Playskool wipe @ 2.50
1 Revlon Nail Enamel @ 3.99

Use 2/1 Revlon
Use 2/1 Diapers
Use 1/1 Wipes
Use 3/15 CVS

Total should be 9.48 plus tax.
Use 3 ECB and pay 6.48 plus tax oop.
Get 8 ECB from Revlon and Playskool. Total towards second Playskool deal is 6.98.

#3
2 Playskool Wipes @ 2/5
1 Playskool diaper @ 10.99

Use 2/1 diapers
Use 1/1 Wipes
Use 3/15 CVS

Total should be 9.99 plus tax.
Use 8 ECB and pay 1.99 plus tax oop.
Get 5 ECB. Total towards 3rd Playskool deal is 2.94.

#4
Same as #3
But, use 5 ECB and get 0 ECB.
Total towards 3rd Playskool deal is now 18.93.

So far, I have purchased all 4 diapers I wanted and 6 of the 8 wipes.

#5
1 Revlon color enamel @ 3.99
4 Playskool wipes @ 2/5
1 filler soda @ more than $1

Use 1/1 Playskool
Use 3/15 CVS

Total should be approximately 12 plus tax.
Use 10 ECB and pay $2 plus tax oop.
Get back 8 ECB from Revlon and Playskool.

TOTALS
Product Totals = $82.94 approx.
Coupon Totals = $32
ECBs Spent = 31
OOP Spent = 19.94 plus tax
ECBs Taken Home = 8

So, with this scenario I end up with about $9 more product, use the same total amount of coupons, spend 3 more ECBs, and spend about $5 or $6 more oop. And bring home the same 8 ECBs at the end of the day. It works out about the same in the end. And I bring home more butt wipes and covers!

Hopefully, these scenarios will work for me. Check out some other scenarios at The Centsible Sawyer!

Where did you find the 3.00 for 5.00

It is a $3 off of $15 CVS coupon. This particular one I got from the New York Post (I think). Check out Centsible Sawyer or Money Saving Mom for links and instructions to get it. I think they are good until 6/9.

Thanks for stopping by!
