My husband kidnapped my computer this weekend so I've been undergoing blog withdrawals!
I went to CVS last night and here's what I did (remember I'm new):

Crest Glide Floss x 2 $5.00
Total 21.96 (before tax)
**MINUS**

CVS ECB's 10.98

Grand Total= $5.28 Out of Pocket AND received $10.00 ECB's and another 3/15 coupon.
TRANSACTION 2
---------------------------------------------------
Kellog Smart Start Cereal x 2 $5.00
Colgate Total Advanced x 3 $8.97
Colgate 360 toothbrush $3.99

Thanks for looking everyone. Please let me know if you think I'm on track. I'm only shopping for things I use and have coupons to stack with ECB's mostly.

That's freakin' awesome... I was thinking that's so awesome I'd do it too, but then i searched for the nearest CSV... its in MS... oh well, at least you get good deal!
I tried it for a week, but I find I just don't want to devote the time to make it work. I don't usually shop CVS so I also had to work in another shopping trip. Looks like you were doing well, though!
Girl you are rocking this. My 19 month old has usually slobbered all over my coupons by the time I remember to acutally use them. :)
Enjoying the read.
