anon, unfortunately I didnt get any A&H, but I did get almost everything else! I made a lot of money on sunday and monday! (I think I ended up with $40 more ECBs than I started with) I am also doing the coke deal this week for bottles for my son’s 1st birthday party. I love not having to pay for things (yes, I am blowing some bucks, but its still coming out to $6ECB for 12 bottles of soda so thats ok)

Here is a trick – save 1 manufacturer coupon for last because the MFQ can pay for tax. ECBs take away the taxable amount of the amount used (so if you use a $5 ECB, its really $5 plus tax). The mfq I use is usually a 50 cents one or $1, so its easy enough for me to calculate. This is a trick I learnt recently.

Oh and I break up my transactions so I can use many $4/20 coupons. If you need one, there is one on iheartcvs.com that expires 12/31/08. My CVS takes expired CVS coupons for one month so it still has a lot of life for me.

BTW, I started doing WAGs. So far so good!! I got 5 containers of OJ the other week for $2.97. My husband loves the stuff so it saved a fortune. One of my best transactions was paying 43 cents for 2 5 lb bags of sugar (which I was desperate for), 2 bottles of A&H detergent and 3 bottles of robitussin!!!!
