Since I got a late start I had to revise my transactions and hit a few more stores than I had planned. I stopped at at least 9 stores. I made purchases at 6 of these stores, 3 of which were bigger (over $50) purchases.

Store 1, Transaction 1
(8) Speed Stick- 1.99 = 15.92
(6) Baby Lips- 3.99(BOGO50%) = 17.94
(4) Almay Remover Pads-5.49(BOGO50%) = 16.46
(1) OneTouch Meter = 9.99

Total before q's = 60.31
Coupons used:
(1) $10/50 CVS q
(1) $10/1 OneTouch (adj. down to 9.99)
(4) $2/1 Almay = $8.00 (these beeped. I thought maybe it was because these q's have the old and new barcodes side by side and I've seen that sometime this causes the CVS registers to not read them properly. I suggested to the cashier that he cover or fold the q so that only the old barcode shows, even folding one for him. He re-scanned the un-folded one in his hand instead. I asked him what the screen said when the q beeped. Silence. He eventually entered them manually)
(6) $2/1 Maybelline Lip = $12.00
(4) BOGO Speed Stick = $7.96 (they scanned at 3.99 but the cashier smirked and re-entered them for 1.99)

Total after q's = 12.36; I used 12ecb and paid 0.38w/tax on a cash card.
Received 10cc and 5ecb which = 2.62MM
Total saved: 95.35

Total before q's = 12.48
Coupons used:

(1) $2/1 Dove Clinical
Total after q's = $0.49 paid with cash card.
Total saved = 29.49

Store 3, Transaction 3
(6) Sunday Newspapers- 1.75 = 10.50
Paid with 10 ecb and .50 on a cash card
*I stopped at this CVS and they didn't have what I needed, but I had 10ecb expiring that day so I figured that's 12 less inserts I need to find in a dumpster! :lol: *
