CVS $40 Challenge Plans [Week 1]

Looks like our first week of the CVS $40.00 Gift Card Challenge is going to be a good one!!!

Here is my Sunday shopping plan.

(1) Gold Emblem Jelly Beans 7oz @ $0.99

-Earn $0.99 ECB

(4) Mars Eater Bunny Singles 1.1oz @ 2/$1

-Earn $2.00 ECB

(2) Colgate Optic White Toothpaste 4oz @ $3.99ea

-Use $1/1 from 3/11 SS

-Earn $ 4.00 ECB

(2) Colgate 360 Toothbrush 1ct @ $2.99ea

-Use $1/1 from 3/11 SS

-Earn $4.00 ECB

(2) Benadryl Liquid Gels 24ct @ $5.39ea as priced on CVS.com

-Use $2/1 from 6/19/11 RP (I dont have this coupon anymore but if you do this could be a MM!)

-Earn $5 ECB

Since the goal is to stretch our gift cards as far as we can I will be breaking this up into several transactions to spend the least amount on my gift card. Transactions as follows:

Transaction 1

(1) Gold Emblem Jelly Beans 7oz @ $0.99

(4) Mars Eater Bunny Singles 1.1oz @ 2/$1

OOP: $2.99 + tax

Earn: $2.99 ECB

Transaction 2

(2) Colgate 360 Toothbrush 1ct @ $2.99ea

*use $2.99 ECB from Transaction 1*

OOP: $0.99 + tax

Earn: $4.00 ECB

Transaction 3

(2) Colgate Optic White Toothpaste 4oz @ $3.99ea

*use $4.00 ECB from Transaction 1*

OOP: $1.98 + tax

Earn: $4.00 ECB

 

So my plan is to get $16.95 worth of product for $5.96 OOP and I'll end with $4.00 ECB to roll onto next weeks purchases.
