Here are my transactions for the items pictured above.  

Transaction 1 (Thursday night)
2 Dawn Hand Renewal @ 1.98
3 Covergirl Eye Shadow @ 11.67*
3 Covergirl Cheekers @ 13.47
Nexxus Shampoo @ 3.29
subtotal: $30.41
used $4/$20 Q I received via e-mail (wish I got them more often than every few months!)
used (2) $.75/1 Dawn Hand Renewal from 8/26 PG
used (3) $3/2 Covergirl
BOGO 50% Covergirl took off $6.15
used $3/1 Nexxus CVS Scanner Q
used $5 in ECBs
new total: $1.76, plus $.15 tax = $1.91 (I forgot to have her scan my GBT) :-(
*I’m not sure how I ended up with 3 and 3, but I had intended to get 2 cheekers and 4 eye shadow.  I was planning on returning the extra cheeker and exchanging it for a eye shadow, but in reality who knows if I’ll end up doing it for the $.60 difference.  They are all gifts for my nieces anyway so 3 and 3 is good. 

Transaction 2 (Saturday night)
1 Pantene @ 3.34
2 Tresemme @ 6.97
2 Simple Pleasures @ 6
1 Gillette Venus Single Razor @ 6.99
subtotal: $23.30
used (2) $2/1 Simple Pleasures from 8/19 SS
used $4/1 Gillette (I don’t remember which insert)
used $2/$10 CVS Scanner Hair Q
new total: $13.30, plus $1.10 tax = $14.40, got $10 Gas Card, $1 ECB for Simple Pleasures and $5 ECB for Gillette Venus and $1 for my GBT

Transaction 3 (Saturday night-My store turns on the following week’s deals late afternoon- not all stores do this and there are sometimes glitches)
1 Milk @ 2.99
4 Bic Twin Silky Razor Packs @ 15.96
1 Gillette Fusion Sensitive Gel @ 2.37
subtotal: $21.32
used (4) $3/1 Bic Razors (don’t remember which insert)
used $5 ECB from T2
new total: $0.32, plus $.01 tax = $.33, got $2 ECB *
*The milk didn’t print the $1 ECB but I wasn’t going to argue with it since it was Saturday and the sale officially starts Sunday.  Plus the sale price should have been $3.49 – $1 ECB so it was only $.50 more and it was still cheaper than any other store near me carries milk for and we were nearly out.

All totaled I spent $16.49 OOP including tax.  I started with $6 in ECBs and ended with $4 in ECBs and a $10 GC.  That means that basically I spent $8.49 for everything.  Plus I had $32 in Beauty Club purchases, earning me $3.20 towards my next $5 Beauty Club ECB!

According to my receipts the totals before sales and coupons would have been $69.25.  I’m happy with saving 90% even if I had to pay OOP to do it :-)
