...and I made out great.
First stop: Rite Aid
Transaction 1:
2 Finesse conditioners (13 oz + 33% bonus) for $6.00.
Tax $.42.
Total OOP $6.42, got $5 UP reward back.
Transaction 2:
Coldcalm Tablets (60 ct) for $5.99.
Revitalens contact solution for $4.99.
Total $10.98, used $5 UP reward from Tx 1.
Total OOP $5.98.
So total, total OOP = $12.40, and I'll get $10.98 back for the Tx #2 items through single check rebates, for a net spend of $1.42.
Next stop: Walgreens
Transaction 1:
Right Guard body wash 13.5oz for $3.99
Minus $1 peelie coupon on the bottle = $2.99.
Tax $.28
Total OOP $3.27, got $3 register rewards
Transaction 2:
Veripur Hand Sanitizer 3oz for $3.99
Used $3 register reward from Tx 1 = $.99
Tax $.28
Total OOP $1.27, got $4 register rewards
So total total, got both items for $.54, which is basically tax.
Next stop: Bank. Deposited $60 in change from piggy bank, which I transferred to HELOC. Woohoo!
Final stop: CVS. Had a $10 ECB that was expiring soon, so I bought 2 Poland Spring 24 packs @ $3.33, 1 Trident gum @ $.99, and 4 padded envelopes for mailing books and cds/dvds. They were b1g1 free.
Total: $12.13 - $10ecb = $2.13, plus tax $.38 = $2.51 OOP, and I got a $.99 ecb back for the gum.
Phew, now I'm beat, hanging out on the couch with my pup. I'll stop at the post office to mail 2 books and a dvd on my way to pick up the kids from school.
