Scenario Sunday

I'm going to try a new series called "Scenario Sunday". Since I started all of this coupon craziness, all my Sundays are the same: (1) wake up early, (2) feed lil' Bean, (3) make the much needed coffee, (4) cut out all the new coupons in my two papers while lil' Bean plays and watches me in action, (5) coordinate my coupons with the savings from my fave stores CVS, Rite Aid, Target and Wal-Mart using Hot Coupon World, Money Saving Mom, A Full Cup and others I have listed before such as I Heart CVS and I Heart Rite Aid, (6) wait for Mr. Bean to get up, and (7) off I go to shop, shop, SHOP!!! So I figured I would try to add to the list "blogging" and give you the scenarios I came up with that day and how they turned out. One caveat, however, next week I won't be able to do this because we will be off Disney World!!!

So anyway, here is what I did today.

First, I went to CVS. I did 5 separate transactions. I went in with a $3 ECB and a $2 ECB.

1. 1 pantene conditioner for $3.33, reg. $4.99

5. 2 Neutrogena volume mascara's for $5.99 each, reg. $8.49 each
-$3.00 when you buy two neutrogena coupons
-$2 when you spend $10 CVS coupon
-$5.99 ECB's from previous transaction
Total: $1.31 OOP, received $6 in ECB's for Neutrogena.

So I spent a total of $12.84 and have $12 in ECB's left.

I then went to Rite Aid. I actually had to go to two because the first Rite Aid didn't have the best deal of the week, but I found it at the second.

So, at the first Rite Aid, I bought:

1 pantene expressions conditioner for $4.99, reg. $6.49
1 pantene expressions shampoo for $4.99, reg. $6.49
1 pantene detangler for $3.50, reg. $4.99

Trip to a second Rite Aid was to get just one thing:

1 L'Oreal Advanced Revitalift anti-wrinkle concentrate for $14.99, reg. $16.59
-$3 L'oreal manufacture coupon
-$3 L'Oreal Rite Aid coupon

Total OOP $10.04

So yes, I spent a total of $31.69 OOP at the two Rite Aid Store. BUT, I will get the following in rebates:

$14.99 for L'Oreal Advaced Revitalift
$10.00 for buying 3 Crest ProHealth mouthwash
$1.74 for buying crest toothpaste
$1.99 for buying Pantene product
$3 for buying 2 Garnier Fructis products

So I will get a total of $31.72 for these two trips. So, I'm even steven. Well, actually ahead by 3 cents. Also, I will be getting a $10 Rite Aid gift card for spending $30 for pantene, crest and L'Oreal as well as a $20 gift code to ebags for a free bag. Yippy!

Finally, I went to Walmart and got:
