The goal of this CVS challenge is to come up with up to 3 scenarios where the total spent out of pocket is $5, while still growing your ECB’s. I’m going to assume that you start out with zero ECB’s to start with, or it makes it too difficult for others to follow. If you do have ECB’s to start, you can reduce your OOP to almost zero.

Well, the deals are not that great the first part of the week (except for the Complete lens solution moneymaker)…probably because the Black Friday deals are usually pretty good. I’ll probably add some additional Black Friday scenarios once I do my coupon matchups for the ad.
Transaction #1
Buy Complete Multi-Purpose Contact Solution 12 oz. $8.99 (limit 2, so you could do this twice)
Use $1.00 QP from 10/25 RP or printable QP
Total after Coupons: $7.99
ECB’s Earned: $8.99
That’s it…I don’t see much else worth purchasing…save your ECB’s for Black Friday.
Total Purchase Price (before QP’s and ECB’s): $8.99
Total OOP: $7.99
ECB’s Left: $8.99
