Here is what I did:

Transaction one:
.50 Almond Joy
15.00--six glade candle jars
5.99--small pack of batteries
9.99--large pack of batteries
3.99--Glade scented oil refills (I bought the wrong ones!!)
3.99--Glade scented oil refills (I bought the wrong ones!!)
=39.46
-.50 (free hershey bar coupon)
-.75 (duracell MQ)
-4.50 (glade candle jar coupons)
-5.00 (5/2)
-5.00 (5/30)
-7.00 ECB
=18.25 OOP!
earned 10.00 ECB for Glade

Transaction two:

10.00--4 glade scents at 2.50 each
14.95--soft and dri/right guard
5.99--small pack of batteries
9.99--large pack of batteries
40.93
-5/2
-5/30
-.55 (soft and dry peelie on product)
-.55 (soft and dry peelie on product)
-.55 (soft and dry peelie on product)
-.55 (right guard peelie on product)
-.55 (right guard peelie on product)
-2.50 (glade BOGO coupon)
-2.50 (glade BOGO coupon)
-10.00 ECB from first order
-10.00 ECB from hershey order this morning
=5.20 OOP
earned 15.00 for duracell
earned 10.00 for soft and dry/right guard
earned 5.00 for glade


Total: 23.25 OOP
used 20.00 ECB
earned 40.00 ECB

**Does this seem too high??? I was thinking of returning the glade scented oil refills tomorrow as I don't even have the kit. I tried to use the coupon today that said by the refills get the kit free, but they only wanted to give 5.00 off of the kit and the kit was 7.99**

tomorrow, I intend on doing:

1st transaction:
5.99--small battery
9.99--large battery
15.99--L'Oreal moisturizer
=31.97
-5/2
-5/30
**use 20 ECB
**earn 15.99 L'Oreal moisturizer

second transaction:
5.99 small battery
9.99--large battery
=16.98
-3/15
-5/2
=8.98 OOP??
**earn 30.00 ECB for duracell


**Does all of this make sense??? I am a newbie at this and trying to figure out if it makes sense or not**

So in transaction 2 you paid 2.20 for all of your soft and dri which is awesome and you paid .98 for the batteries I think you did real well in transaction two. The first transaction seems real high to me too, but you paid 8 bucks out of pocket for the wrong candles, I would take those back
But if you look at the total this way

Total: 23.25 OOP
used 20.00 ECB
earned 40.00 ECB

You paid 3.25 (adding the ECB and OOP) and earned 40.00 in ECB so not too bad!

tomorrow, I intend on doing:

1st transaction:
5.99--small battery
9.99--large battery
15.99--L'Oreal moisturizer
=31.97
-5/2
-5/30
**use 20 ECB
**earn 15.99 L'Oreal moisturizer

***I would use $25.00 ECB on this one making your OOP $6.97

second transaction:
5.99 small battery
9.99--large battery
=16.98
-3/15
-5/2
=8.98 OOP??
**earn 30.00 ECB for duracell

*****Use your $5.00 ECB on this one making your OOP $3.98


Then you would have your $30.00 ECB from the Duracell and the $15.99 from the Loreal with your OOP at $10.95 tomorrow.

The 23.25 was actual cash that I paid out today; that is why I think I didn't do very good; I will take back the candles tomorrow, so that will mean that I ended up with paying 15.25 OOP and used 20.00 ECB.

Well, if you take back the candles you still basically made $4.75 in ECB's on that trans, that's not bad!

Not sure if I'm understanding correctly, but the oil refills, to my understanding, are not part of the deal. I REALLY wanted them but didn't get them cause I didn't think they were part of the sale/ecb deal.
