9/12 CVS trip & the end of the ReadyFill Coupon

I for one am reallly sad to see the ReadyFill coupon book expire.  Those coupons have served me well the last several weeks.   Yesterday my husband and I decided to make a CVS run and put some more of those lovely coupons to work in our favor.  Had this been a better week overall for the deals, we would have had to burn a few less ECB's.  On to the main event.

I spent $9.91 cash + $51.14 ECB’s = $61.05 - $21.97 ECB’s Received = $39.08 net oop

My net oop was a lot higher than I normally like to go, but there were other factors at play for this trip.  Those factors were a need for hair accessories and mistakes on my part.  I failed to look at the limits on certain items and didn't receive the number of ECB's that I expected to, so please learn from my errors.

I am headed to Walgreens in the morning and I am optimistic that I will do a better job.

Till then,
