Help Sign Newbie finally got some Ecbs can you help me spend it?

I got $18 in ecbs from last week, One 10 and two $4. I had to spend money like someone said to build up some ecb's.
I"m a little bit nervous because we are very tight and I still have not had luck with a job. I bought some medicine that we did need so I was glad it gave 10 bucks worth of ecbs.
Anyways I did not get the cvs sale ad in the paper and I really need it to look at it, I'm weird like that..
I also am still confused about how I can roll over what I have to get more ecbs without spending no or as little oop as possible.
CAn anyone help me ? Please ............. I could use pampers brand diapers but not sure if this is a good week to use up ecb's or do I wait .
I just feel like these ecbs are like gold and trying to make it stretch or roll over and get the best deal.
Thanks for any help....

Do you have $1 Crest coupons? You could:
Buy 2 Crest Pro-Health Whitening for $3.49each = $6.98
Use 2 $1 coupons
use $4 ECB
Pay a small amount of actual money ($.98 + tax)
Get back $6.98 in ECB.

Do that twice, as the limit for the toothpaste is 4. Don't do 4 at once, or you'll have a $13.96 ECB to spend.

You'll turn your 2 $4 ECBs into 2 $6.98 ECBs while only paying $1.96 or so in cash. You'll make around $4 total.

Do you have any $ off $$ coupons? If so, those will help!

For Pampers - maybe buy the 2 at $20 and use $3 in coupons. use your $10 ecb and pay $7 or so. Get $5 ecb back. So, $12 for 2 packs.

Do you have any coupons for the colgate deal or any x/xx cvs coupons?
If not, you can still do the crest deal which is free after ecbs... You could get 3 x $3.49 crest ProHealth toothpaste 4.2 oz = $10.47 - $10.00 ecb = $.47 out of pocket and get back a $10.47 ecb (if you can find them... I've heard they're hard to find). It would be an even better deal if you had some of the colgate coupons.
As for the pampers, some people have $1.50 off coupons or $2 off coupons. If you have those, the deal would be to get 2 jumbo packs of papers for $20.00 - $3.00 (2 x $1.50 coupons) = 17.00 , and you would get $5 in ecb. If you used the $10 and $4 ecbs, you'd pay $3.00 + tax out of pocket and get back $5 ecb so you'd be down from $18 to $9 in total ecb. If you have a x/xx cvs coupon, it makes it easier to not pay as much oop. It's not a bad deal at all especially if you need them, but it's completely up to you.
You can still get the toothpaste for just about free and next week there are some free after ecb deals that seem pretty good.
I have the same issue with needing to see the ad so I completely understand.
HTH some!
