Please check my math for this scenario

If they have everything in stock, I can do this. Do you see any error?


CVS 9-28-09

Vaseline Sheer Infusion Body Lotion 6.8oz $7.99 Get $7 ECB Limit 1
1 Vaseline Sheer Infusion body lotion, any, $1/1 x11/30
pay at register 7.99
net oop = .01 MM


Buy 1 Accu-Chek Aviva Diabetes Monitoring Kit at $14.99, Get $5 ECBs (Limit 2)
Use $10/1 coupon from the 8/23 SmartSource insert
pay at register 4.99
net oop = .01 MM ea


Schick Disposable Razors (trial size)--$1.49
Use 2 Schick Disposable Razor, any, $1/1 x10/4
.net oop = .49 ea

7.99 + 14.99 + 1.49 + 1.49 = 25.96

25.96 products
+ 1.56 tax
-5/25 cpn
-2 cpns razors
-10 cpn monitor
-1 cpn lotion =
$9.52
pay with 9 ecbs =
.52 oop, roll 9 ecbs, earn 3 ecbs


Math is not my best subject.

I think you would earn $12 ECB's and not just $3 if I am reading it right.

Okay. I thought about what you are doing and you are correct. I thought you already had the $9 in ECBs but you would be earning them with your deal. You won't be able to use the $9 in ECBs that you are earning in that deal. You would have to use them later. So you would at the end have a rotal of $12 in ECBs to use later. I hope I am making sense. My brain is sleepy today.

Yes, I would call it 'rolling' the ecbs, paying with them now, the same amount (at least) spit out with a exp date further in the future.

Yeah, my brain is total fuzz so I just needed another pair of eyes/calculator to work it out and agree . . . THANK YOU! And I'm off . . .
