OK girls, please help! By the end of next week, 1/24, I need to spend $56 in ECBs and DH needs to spend $33 (He wanted to do the holiday deals with me on 12/21 - ugh ).

Our stores do not have the Soy Joy. We've done the throat coolers, gum, and naso gel for the month thankfully and rolled those at least.

Now I am stuck....

I have all these ECBs to spend, but there isn't really anything to roll with. I am thinking that I want to do almost ANYTHING that will generate an ECB so I don't lose them all.

We both got 10/50 q's at the scanner today, which means I really need to spend 66 and he needs to spend 40 (not counting any other q's we'll likely have). Oh, and we have the $3 CVS q, so I'm trying to decide whether we should do the deals this week or wait til next.

Can you help me? I don't really have time to sit down and think right now and am stressed about wasting $80 in ECBs when I could at least roll a few of them for smaller amounts.

I know about the cracker deal and haven't done that yet. Am I missing something??

Thanks in advance, friends!!

Here are some ideas.

Did you know the throat cooler limit is supposedly 5, not 2?

$2 ECB wyb Kotex 16-20ct -- limit 6? (1/11 - 1/17 deal)
(should be $4.99 -- but there are reports they are ringing up $3.27)
- $1 c/o (SS 1/11) = .27 oop each
- $1 IP c/o (Print Your Coupon)

$10 ECB wyb $20 Pepsi Products -- limit 5 (1/18 - 1/24 deal)

$3 ECB wyb Listerine Smart Rinse or Agent Cool Blue -- limit 5 (Monthly deal)
- $1 IP c/o (only if you already have them printed -- c/o print campaign seems to be over)

[jenlovestoteach]

I don't have that much in ECB's but I didn't see anything I could use so I was holding mine till next week. I figure that worst gets to worst, I'll buy food on sale.

But I'm not going to buy stuff I don't need. I always need food.

How about some Sambucol. They are $12.99 w/ $10 ECB's.

I am thinking small! Next week do the Rogaine deal 19.99 with 5 ECB back. Use $15 printable to make it free. Limit is 5, so if you have access to several computers, you can roll up to $25 ECB per card that way. This starts on Sunday.

There is also FREE after ECB Cvs Allergy Meds next week, $3.79 each. Limit 2.

I also buy milk, bread and eggs with my ECB's.

Good luck!I am in a similar situation myself :-) But I have not maxed out ANY of my monthly deals, my problems is just FINDING the items!

I think I saw last night that there is some sort of venus razor deal.
It was late, so I might be incorrect on this, but it's a jumping off point:
venus (whichever style is included) 7.99
-$4 q (I have mailer q's, I guess there were pg brand saver from dec also)
-$3.99 ecb (to pay rather than oop)
receive 4 ecb (I THINK it's $4. sorry I do not rememeber to be 100% positive)

Also There was a deal listed for intuition razors.
8.99
receive $3 ecb

not sure if there are any q's floating around on that one.

Seems the best idea would be start w/ the pepsi deal

You can use up $15 ecb's buying 15 99cent Hallmark or American Greeting cards (whichever your store carries) and get $15 ecb's back. They are buy 3 get 3ecb's, limit 5. I got 15 hallmark cards today.
