Mu suggested scenario for someone i just helped who only has $5 ECBs to start and limited cash and in need of the school supplies

ok so starting with a $5 ECB means that to keep your OOP low you will need to do several transactions. ok? there are not really any coupons out online to help with THIS sale.

transaction one

2 x 1 subject notebook 1.98

3 x papermate pens 2.97

= 4.95

pay with $5 ECB

= tax OOP get back 1.98 and 2.97 ECBs

transaction 2

1 x scissor 2.99

2 x school glue 1.98

=4.97

pay with 2.97 and 1.98 ECBs from first transaction

=.02 plus tax OOP

get back 2.99 and 1.98 in ECBS

transaction 3

1 x scissors 2.99

2 x rulers 1.98

=4.97

pay with ecbs from transacion 2

=0 plus tax OOP

get back 2.99 and 1.98 in ECBs

i personally like the multi subject notebook deal even though it is not FREE and i like the 5 cent 2 pocket folders so

1 x multi subject notebooks 3.99

10 x .05 cent 2 pocket folders .50

sharpie highlighter 1.50

=5.99

use 2.99 and 1.98 ECBs from transaction 3

=1.02 OOP plus tax

get $3 ECB back

this is just some suggestions off the top of my head.
I shop for several households for CVS, not just my own.
