I needed milk and bread this week so I hopped over to CVS after work. This week they have Maybelline Mineral Powder Foundation for $8.99 and earns $8.99 in ecbs, so free. I had $3 off coupons for each one and I already had a $9.99 and a $6.98 ecb. So the math looks like this:
Maybelline $8.99 * 2 = 17.98 - 3*2 ($3 coupons) = $11.98
Since I had 9.99 + 6.98 in ecbs, I needed to purchase 16.97 worth of stuff, so less the makeup:
$16.97 - 11.98 = $4.99 of fillers, or more important, the stuff I actually NEEDED.
The milk was $2.89 and the bread $2.59. So my total after all my coupons and ecbs was .49 out of pocket but I earned $17.98 back in ecbs. So really came out ahead on this!
