(who taught me everything I know about "couponing") I am going to go into detail about everything I got:)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;First Off I hit Walgreens. I had said that I would NEVER shop at walgreens again (they just don't compare to CVS) but I had a $5 RR to use so I headed there first. I had planned on getting their Dove Shampoo BOGO and using a BOGO coupon, but of course they wouldn't let me...Stinkers!! But I still found some good deals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5138474838254991442" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_2ARTw-Lkejk/R0-Ho_14uFI/AAAAAAAAAAc/LPWmgZq0PDU/s320/20071129+003.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Okay I can't seem to find my receipt so here goes from memeory...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;The Fruitis Conditioner was on Clearance for 1.69 I had a coupon for $1 so my total .69 a bottle&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vive Pro Shampoo and Conditioner was on clearance for 2.19 I had a bogo coupon&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;2 things Foil on sale 2/$1&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;I also had to add a chapstick to use up all of my $5 RR&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Total out of pocket .48 I think:)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5138478050890528866" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_2ARTw-Lkejk/R0-Kj_14uGI/AAAAAAAAAAk/pWqWaeUoe3g/s320/20071129+004.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Next was CVS....This was interesting. I had read the add wrong and thought the Infant Gas X also generated the $10 ECB's but I was wrong and it excluded it so I ask to return it. That was not a problem. The problem was the Cashier he was VERY nice, but he had to call the Manager 10 times by the time he gave me my refund, which was in cash even though I paid with ECB's. So I came out $13 ahead in CASH!!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Contrex water 1.49 (they only had one) -$1 coupon. If I buy one more I get $1 ECBs. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Benefiber Chewables 11.69 had a 2.00 coupon and it genereated $10 ECBs&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;For the Revlon deal get 10 when you spend $20. I got a nail polish, mascara and and eye shadow had 2.00 coupons for 3 but they wouldn't except one of them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;We have needed Brita refills for a while and since I had a LOT of ECBs to use up I got those no coupons no ECBs received 21.99&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;I also got some wet wipes for the car for .99 cause I thought I needed it for a filler turns out I needed quite a bit more...that's where the rest came in.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;5 crystal Lites at .49 each &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;and 3 candy bars:)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;okay I think that covers all of that.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Total out of pocket .63 &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;(and don't forget they gave me that 13 in cash)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5138482633620633714" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_2ARTw-Lkejk/R0-Ouv14uHI/AAAAAAAAAAs/DNhpMfY0pnU/s320/20071129+001.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Next I went to Super target.
